I want to bring my lunch this year but i need healthy ideas!?

My cafeteria does not serve food that is healthy enough. I am bringing my lunch because i eat healthy at home and want to keep that up at school also! I am in the 8th grade but i need ideas of what to bring each day! I don't eat a lot of meat so vegetables and fruits are a great start!

    Get an insulated lunch bag and a cold pack and bring whatever healthy food you eat at home. Use plastic containers with lids and plastic forks so you don't lose the ones from the silverware drawer. You can bring leftovers from dinner. You already know what foods are good for you so use that as a guideline for lunch. Rice dishes with veggies, mixed fruit cut up with yogurt on top, whole grain crackers and cheese. Go online and look up healthy lunches.

    Enjoy the wholesome goodness of my world famous Carrot Sandwich

    Ingredients:

    1/2 fresh grated wholesome carrot

    2 slices whole wheat bread

    1/2 sprig green onion chopped

    1/2 sprig fresh cilantro chopped

    1 slice tomato

    1 piece romaine lettuce

    1 teaspoon sweet mustard (optional)

    1 tablespoon hummus

    Directions:

    Preparation time: 5 minutes.

    Spread the sweet mustard on one slice of the vegan bread. Spead the hummus on the other slice. Layer the wholesome carrot, cilantro, green onion, tomato, and lettuce on the vegan bread and enjoy! Bread is also good toasted.

    chopped carrots or celery and ranch is always good and pay attention to what you are drinking as well, many drinks are worse for you than the food your eating (sugar wise)
