The Coronavirus pandemic has forced children to stay at home and avoid socializing with their peers. Parents have taken on the role of teachers and caregivers, making sure that their little ones are healthy and happy. One of the most important things parents can do during this time is to provide healthy and nutritious meals to their children.

Here are some easy and tasty recipes for children’s lunches that can be made with ingredients that are easily available in the market. These recipes are perfect for picky eaters and will also provide the necessary nutrients that are required for proper growth and development.

1. Peanut Butter-Banana Sandwich: A classic favorite among children, this sandwich is high in protein and fiber, making it the perfect food to keep your child energized and full throughout the day. All you need is two slices of whole-grain bread, peanut butter, and a ripe banana. Spread peanut butter on one slice of bread, slice the banana, and place it on top. Put the other slice of bread on top, and your sandwich is ready.

2. Veggie Wraps: Wraps are a great way to sneak in some veggies into your child’s diet. In a tortilla wrap, add shredded carrots, lettuce, sliced cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes. You can also add some grated cheddar cheese and a dollop of ranch dressing for flavor.

3. Mini Pizzas: Children love pizza, and what’s better than making little ones their mini versions of it. You can use store-bought pizza crust or make your own with some flour, yeast, and water. Spread some tomato sauce on top, add cheese, and your choice of toppings, such as mushrooms, bell peppers, and olives. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Let them cool for a bit before packing them in lunch boxes.

4. Pasta Salad: Pasta is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. You can make a yummy pasta salad by boiling some penne pasta, adding diced bell peppers, sliced tomatoes, shredded carrots, and cucumbers. Drizzle some olive oil and lemon juice on top and mix it well.

5. Fruit Salad: An excellent way to ensure your child gets their daily dose of vitamins is by giving them a fruit salad. Cut up different kinds of fruits like watermelon, banana, kiwi, and pineapple. Add a squeeze of lime juice and mix it all together.

6. Chicken Quesadilla: Grilled chicken quesadilla is a fun and delicious way to add some protein to your child’s lunch. Spread some shredded chicken and cheese on a tortilla wrap. Fold it in half and grill it on a pan until the cheese melts and the tortilla is crispy.
