Back to school means back to packing the lunchbox
We see lots of families in store searching for lunchbox ideas that strike the right balance - nourishing foods to support a busy day of learning, movement and options the kids will actually eat. Because we all know that sinking feeling when the lunchbox comes home barely touched.
Recipes - Choc cookie dough or Carrot cake bliss balls
Recipe by Chelsea Winter, from her book Nourish*
Gluten Free - Vegan (Optional) - Nut Free (Optional)
These moreish bliss balls are gorgeously chocolatey but also pack a nice hot of protein from the chickpeas (who'd have thought?!), and the bone broth protein powder if you use it. Perfect for lunchboxes or a sweet treat after a meal - I find having a container of them sitting in the fridge or freezer a bit of a lifesaver. Which I do often, as they're very easy to make - just whizz everything in a food processor, roll and boom, you're done.
