1- minute wraps

These really do live up to their name - they are super quick and easy to make, plus the combinations are endless. They are a great way to pack whole-grains, protein, and veggies into one neat little package. This one is just 1 whole wheat/sprouted grain wrap, 3-4 slices of turkey, 1/2 an avocado, 1/4 cucumber cucumber, and spinach! For a meatless option, just replace the turkey with hummus, or smashed chickpeas/beans with some salt, pepper, lemon juice and oil!

Night-before quesadillas 
​

Contrary to popular belief, quesadillas don't have to be hot to be delicious. They're also a great way to sneak fruits & veggies into your kiddos' lunches. Prep them the night before, let them cool, toss them in a container and you're ready to go for the next morning. This quesadilla has cheese and apples - crispy, sweet, and salty! You can also try sprinkling some diced pepper, fresh corn kernels, and beans for a protein-packed option!
