BACK TO SCHOOL: PACKING A NUTRITIOUS LUNCH BOX

It’s that time of the year again! With a busy schedule and work responsibilities, we know how challenging it can be for parents to prepare a healthy, nutritious and diverse lunchbox everyday. 

Whether you prepare it before school in the mornings, or before bed after a busy evening, saving time with meal prep and planning super snacks to fill the gap between meals are key to a nutritious and easy lunchbox fix.

Portion packs for snacks

Packed with essential nutrients like protein, high fiber, vitamins and healthy fats & carbs, dry fruits prove to be a nutritious and energizing snack, that are both delicious and beneficial. Organic and 100% natural, Sunny Fruit portion packs offer just the right amount of daily intake, and are great for when you are on-the-go, at work, or looking for a healthy alternative to put in your kid’s lunchbox.

Offering the exact amount of nutrients and calories that are needed, portion packs are ideal to satisfy and provide energy until a main meal, while encouraging healthy self-regulation. Opening packages in small batches also means the produce is consumed at peak freshness, addressing longer shelf life and decreased food waste as well as optimum taste, as single sitting consumption means that flavors are at their absolute best!

Golden lunchbox formula

 According to experts, the formula is simple: fill half your plate (or lunchbox) with colorful fruits and fresh vegetables (aiming for 2-3 types, easily achieved through Sunny Fruits’ wide selection of fruits), one quarter with whole grains such as whole wheat bread or pasta, brown rice or quinoa, and the remaining quarter with healthy proteins such as poultry, fish or eggs, paired with healthy unsaturated fats (such as nuts, seeds, and healthy oils from plants).
