hi sunnyz! I pack a lc lunch for my 15 yr old every day. Luckily she likes left overs cold so that is an option for me. I often pack a salad with added meat from last nights dinner like sliced chicken, crumbled hamburger, or taco meat.We also use the o'so lo rollz (I buy mine online at www.thebetterhealthstore.com) for sandwiches. Sandwiches might include mayo, deli turkey or sliced chicken left over from dinner, and lettuce. I pack celery or cucumber strips with a little tupper of no carb dressing for dipping. Some snack items could include nuts or homemade protein bar (to avoid the sugar alcohols). Chicken or tuna salad in a rollz sandwich or on top of a salad is another favorite. If you make the parmesan coated chicken nuggets for dinner, they make especially yummy left overs even cold. I also make rollups with turkey(any deli meat would do) spread with a bit of mayo and my daughters favorite cheese (feta) . Sometimes I throw in a surprise like 2 lc marshmellows, 3 strawberries, or a lc no bake cheese cake in a mini muffin paper.The other day I found little cheeses in jungle animal wrappers.You are correct that variety is the key to avoid boredom. Good luck. I hope this helps. You and your daughter are doing great! I know how much work it is to have the right things available for your daughter. You deserve a big pat on the back for all you are doing as well as the great job of sticking with it that she is doing!
