As summer fades and the school year begins, it’s time to start thinking about those exciting yet often daunting school lunches. Whether you’re packing for little ones or teenagers, finding lunch ideas that are both nutritious and delicious can be a challenge. Fortunately, we have you covered with some mouthwatering and easy-to-pack options that will make lunchtime the highlight of the day.
Why settle for a plain sandwich when you can have a gourmet panini? Our freshly baked ciabatta rolls are perfect for creating delightful Italian-style sandwiches. Fill them with your favorite combinations—think prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, and basil with a drizzle of balsamic glaze, or a hearty roast beef with caramelized onions and arugula. Wrap them up for a satisfying and flavorful lunch that will keep your child energized throughout the school day.
Our focaccia bread is a treat on its own, but when cut into squares, it becomes a versatile lunchbox addition. Top the focaccia with various toppings like cherry tomatoes, olives, and rosemary for a Mediterranean flair, or try a more hearty topping with roasted vegetables and goat cheese. These squares are not only tasty but also make for an appealing and unique lunch option.
For a side dish that packs a punch, try an Italian pasta salad made with our freshly baked breadsticks. Toss cooked pasta with cherry tomatoes, mozzarella balls, olives, and a zesty Italian dressing. Add in some chopped basil and a sprinkle of Parmesan for extra flavour. This salad is a refreshing and fulfilling option that can be made ahead of time and enjoyed cold.
For a creative and interactive lunch, pack ingredients for build-your-own bruschetta. Slice our crusty baguette into rounds and pack them separately from toppings like diced tomatoes, basil, and a touch of garlic. Let your child assemble their bruschetta right before eating. It’s a fun way to include fresh veggies and enjoy a bit of culinary creativity.
Every lunch needs a little something sweet, and our bakery has a selection of delicious treats that will brighten up any lunchbox. Consider packing a delicious cannoli, a soft and flakey croissant or one of our famous donuts.
With these easy and delicious lunch ideas, you’ll have everything you need to make school lunches both fun and nutritious. Our offerings are perfect for keeping lunchtime interesting and satisfying.
