Back to School (or Any Time) Vegan Lunch Roundup: 20 Fun and Easy Meals for Every Lunchbox
--
It’s September: Let’s get those lunches planned.
When my son was in elementary school, I started out making cute lunches inspired by the ol’ Vegan Lunch Box blog in the aughts but quickly discovered that both my son and I liked quick and easy meals more than we did visually impressive ones. The point is to eat something nutritious, filling and tasty, then get some recess time, right? He was also already eating something different from the other kids as a vegan so he wanted no muss, no fuss lunches. Here are 20 fab and fast lunch ideas that could level up any lunch box. Throw in some colorful fruits and a muffin and you’re good to go!
