have you got lunch box ideas?

My DD has never been a huge fruit lover either, but just today I packed some grapes and watermelon in her bad to see how she'd go, and because the other toddlers were eating it, she did too.
As for things suitable for freezing, whatever I'm having for dinner, I always freeze some for her lunchbox.
Things like beef casserole, chicken stirfry, spaghetti bolognese, vegies & meat are some of Nina's favourites.
She also has yoghurt, crackers, tiny teddies muffins, and fruit (as I said already) as snacks.

getting kids to eat vegies and fruit can b tough - i dont have that problem yet my DS is only 12 wks but as a kid i was fussy and so were my siblings so my mum was sneaky the foods that worked the best and still are favs now are:

rissoles: can b frozen and reheated easily and can be packed with veggies- finely grate carrots, apples, zucchinis, peas, corn, sweet potato, pumpkin. When made with good mince can be quite healthy. Can be served as burgers or with other veggies. To mix things up use chicken or lamb or pork mince or sub meat for mash potato and rice - add some sweet soy, bbq, tomato sauce and/or honey to sweeten them.
Salmon/tuna mornay was also a fav easy as well, soups are also easy to conceal veggies in, as are quiches/frittatas.
As for the fruit try making smoothies and fruit jellies, or slices the easiest way is to make eating them fun and if the help 'cook' they tend to want to eat it more.
