As a homeschooler, you would like we spend most of our school days at home. Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Between Drama classes, co-ops, and orchestra rehearsals, we spend a lot of time out of the house. Plus when the weather is nice, it’s such a shame to spend the day indoors. When we are away from the house during lunch, we’ll pack a meal and take it with us. We’re always sure to have Wet Ones® Wipes on hand too because messes happen.
My kids love bento style lunches. They like the small compartments and food variety. It beats an old’ sandwich any day. Bentos can get really elaborate with decorations, but I don’t. Although I have several of the tools and extras to do it, I like things plain and simple (aka less work for me). This Lemon Pepper Chicken is easy to make. Grill several chicken breasts for dinner and use the leftovers for lunch the next day. Less work and you’ll have a delicious lunch.

What will you make for lunch tomorrow?
This looks really good. My kids will not eat sandwiches, so I’m always trying to come up with clever ideas for their packed lunches. I would eat this, too!
We get tired of sandwiches, but this style of lunch is always fun
Yep, as homeschoolers, it’s surprising how often we are eating lunch on the go. I love the idea of a bento box–I actually have some of these containers. This recipe sounds like one my kids will love, and it’s a great idea to pack a Wet One for clean up.
I like those containers becuase it keeps everything together. I’m not having to pack and juggle a bunch of containers in coolers.
Bento lunches are such fun for kids and parents alike. Individual Wet-Wipes are a great addition – when I lived in Japan all meals came with a moist towelette that was to be used before the meal to clean your hands. It’s one of the things I miss since leaving.
Japanese restaurants around here to that too. It’s one of the parts the kids look forward to.
My son loves Wet Ones when at band. They keep his fingers clean after playing tuba.
