We have planned this week's kids lunch box menu plan where some recipes use a lots of mixed vegetables or greens and sprouts. Adding various ingredients in your kids diet ensures that he or she gets their recommended dose of nutrients that are important for growth, development and learning. While cooking for your kids we need to keep in mind that they get the five basic food groups- vegetables, fruit, grain ,dairy and protein.

Fruits and vegetables give your kid vitamins, minerals, fiber and disease fighting chemicals. Include fresh and seasonal fruits for your kid. Instead of packing packaged, high in sugar ready made snacks pack a fruit or two in your kids snack boxes. 

Grains give energy, choose whole wheat pasta, oats, quinoa other than rice and wheat to include grains in your kids diet. Nuts and lentils provide the important protein. Sprouting legumes help increase their nutritional value. 

So try our Kids Lunch Box Menu plan to give your child the right growth.
