How to Fill that Vegan Lunch Box

Make Great Vegan Lunches for Every Member of the Family!

So it's that time of year when a young person's fancy turns to - well - how to fill that lunch box!


Whether your kids go to "far away school" (as we call it here),  or your homeschool co-op is starting up again, or if the grown-ups in the family have resolved once again to live more frugal & healthy lives - that lunch box needs filling!


Here are a bunch of great ideas. Many of them can be stored in the freezer for quick access. Others are Quick and Easy - they can be started with frozen ingredients such as cooked beans or grains. So, most of them can be pretty convenient. Because packing a lunch just isn't going to happen for most families if it turns out to be a two hour ordeal every day!


So, without further ado:
