Tips for packed lunches

Serves:

Method

• Use an insulated lunch box or carry bag.
• Use a frozen ice brick or frozen drink bottle in the lunch box.
• Freeze sandwiches the night before, as both a time saver and to keep foods cool.
• Chill cooked foods (eg. boiled eggs) before packing in the lunch box.
• Store lunch boxes in a cool spot ( if possible in the fridge).
• Ensure children wash hands thoroughly before meal times and after going to the toilet or handling pets.
