Healthy Lunches to Go



If you have a child in school you already know how hard it can be to pack a variety of lunches throughout the week that are healthy, easy to make and that your kids will eat! By this time of year, with only a couple months left before summer break, many of us are just stuck in a rut when it comes to this morning task. Need some help? Check out the The Canadian Health Network (CHN) 'Healthy Lunches to Go' website from the Dietitians of Canada.

The site is full of helpful advice, tips and ideas to get you back on track. Check out the Cool Lunch Guide for a simple way to make quick interesting lunches that fit the healthy bill. Learn about Food Safety, Nutrition labels, allergies and more. The site even features some interactive tools both for older kids and adults - things like games and quizzes as well as links to tools like EATracker to help you keep track of what you're eating daily. Register online for the Lunch Tip of the Day and receive lunch tips by email or even text messaged to your cell phone.
