Packing the Perfect Back to School Lunch


It's that time of the year... the stores are packed with back to school shoppers loading up on pencils and paper, calculators and backpacks. If you're like me, you're already thinking about lunches. Some of you probably get up early in the morning to pack your kids lunch, but I'm a night time packer. After we put the kids to bed, Chris and I head to the kitchen and get their lunches (and everything else!) organized for the next day.

If you're anything like us, getting your kids to eat enough fruits and vegetables can be tough. I love feeding them wholesome food, preferably without artificial colors or flavors. You know what I find to be the hardest thing to buy for their lunches? The drinks! I send them to school with a water bottle but they like to have something different than water with their meals. That's why I was thrilled to see that Capri Sun has a line of juice drinks without any artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. 

The Super V Fruit and Vegetable Juice Drink is our favorite:
In addition to that one, Capri Sun also has the following varieties available:
  • Capri Sun Juice Drink
  • Capri Sun Roarin' Waters Flavored Water Beverage
  • Capri Sun 100% Juice (we love this one too!)
My kids have always loved Capri Sun products - in fact, I take them with us to playgroups and Brayden's sports practices as a snack for all of the kids there. I love them because there is a flavor to please every palate and they are so easy to store and take with us. There's something fun about the pouch, and now it's even cooler in my boys eyes because the bottoms are see-through! You can learn more about the new see-through design and Capri Sun's line of 100% Juice Drinks by clicking here


My Recipe for a Perfect Lunch:

1 Capri Sun Juice Drink
1 ham, turkey and cheese sandwich on wheat bread with mustard
Veggie chips (all natural, dried veggies)
Yogurt
A fresh fruit or vegetable (Brody prefers grapes while Brayden likes carrots)

Tell me, what Capri Sun Juice drink are you most excited to try?
