Okay, we're going to be packing some school lunches,

and I do three of these every morning.

I usually do it while the oatmeal's cooking.

[MUSIC]

Pour some boiling water into a thermos, Just so

that the inside of the thermos gets nice and hot.

And I'm just basically looking to see what there is from last night's supper.

So here's some nice pasta which we made with some,

with a bit of a white sauce and some vegetables.

And while that's heating up, we'll make the side dishes.

Kids get hungry at school and you can

really take advantage of that hunger by putting good things in their lunch.

They're hungry.

They've been running around.

They'll actually probably eat it, where they might not at home.

So, I'm just going to cut this carrot up into little sticks,

like this. Whatever vegetables you have in the

fridge, you can just kind of chop up. And then I'm using just a natural kind

of ranch dip that they like; and believe me, they will get used to this

kind of eating, and they will eat this way for the rest of their lives.

So I'm going to go get the pasta out of the microwave.

We're emptying out our thermos.

See it's steaming so it means it's nice and hot

inside and then basically just going to put this in here.

And just so they don't have to think in that moment, I'm going to strap on

a recyclable fork so they can bring it back and we can wash it.

That is there main meal for lunch.

And here are there vegetables.

And the only other thing we need is some nice fresh fruit.

[MUSIC]

If it's summertime, put some nectarines and, or some peaches.

If it's in the winter, orange segments are great.

But putting in a whole orange is going to be difficult for them to peel.

If you make it easy for them to each, they're much more likely to eat it.

And then you put these little packages of love, in a nice container.

And what you can do to keep this dip cold. It's not a football, this is a cold frozen

cool pack. You can put that on top.

And put the dressing right beside that, and it will keep it cold.

And then you just zip this up, and now you can go check on your oatmeal.
