  • Chicken Fingers

    Thermos Chicken Fingers

    Cook up a small batch of frozen chicken fingers while you're getting ready for work. This lunch is quick and easy and a big hit with kids of all ages.
  • Nut-free Peanut Butter & Jam Sandwich

    Peanut-Free PB&J Sandwich

    Nut-free peanut butter means your children can take their favourite sandwich to school!
  • Bagels with Cream Cheese

    Lunchtime Bagels

    Turn a bag of bagels into a lunchtime favourite by combining some non-traditional ingredients with your cream cheese.
  • Mozza Calzones

    Mozza Pita-Calzone

    If the kids like pizza, they're going to love Pita Calzone. But our recipe is more nutritious than take-out, using pita breads and lots of fresh vegetables. And it's much more economical, too!
  • Mocha Tortoni Mousse

    Chicken Pockets

    Plump up your pita with this filling filling—colourful, crunchy and delicious!
  • Roast Beef Wraps

    Roast Beef Wraps

    Roast beef wraps take a little preparation, but you can make them in advance and keep them in the fridge in a tightly sealed container. Plus, each one wraps up four different food groups in a convenient little package!
  • Pantry Pasta

    Mean green broccoli soup

    Kids can be fussy about their greens at dinner time, but all you need is cheese to get them on-side. Mean Green Broccoli Soup uses Canadian Old Cheddar cheese for an irresistible texture and flavour!
  • Freezer Sandwiches

    Freezer Sandwiches

    I grew up on freezer sandwiches — I am sure my parents wouldn't have been able to pack lunch for 4 teens and a growing boy without them! Not only do freezer sandwiches save time but they make lunches more affordable.
  • Egg Bagel

    Chopped Egg Salad

    Hard-boil some eggs while you're preparing dinner and turn them into a quick and tasty lunch the next morning.
