On the Go Food Idea's

Need on the go food ideas for your busy back to school schedule?
Try some of these...
Pita's filled with tuna, veggies, eggs, diced chicken, cheese. I have a great whole wheat pita recipe I will share soon.
Wraps filled with nitrate free lunch meat, veggies, cheese, mashed banana and PB,
Banana and PB Bread Wraps flatten a slice of bread with a rolling pin. Spread with banana and PB. Roll up, slice into pinwheels or leave in a log.
Hot Ham and Cheese baked in tinfoil. Stick in a cooler (without other cold items) to keep warm.
Calzones Make ahead, freeze, warm and wrap in foil to keep warm, stick in cooler to keep warm for a longer period of time.
Homemade Lunchables Dice lunch meal, cheese and crackers. Add a treat. Package.
Nuts A mixture is good to add various nutrients to your diet. You can also roast them in your oven with a little olive oil and seasoning of your choice (salt, garlic, pepper, lime, chili powder, cumin...) My boys love Pistachios in the shell, shell spitting contests are fun :)
Red Hot Popcorn
Pop popcorn on the stove top or in a stir crazy popper with red hots and oil. The red hots will melt and coat the kernels when they pop.
Coconut Oil Popcorn Pop popcorn in coconut oil instead of oil or butter. Lightly salt. Yum!
