Book Review of The Penny Whistle Lunch Box Book

The Penny Whistle Lunch Box Book
Helpful Score: 1


I've been quite impressed with the recipes in this book. They are very kid friendly, but go way beyond the typical pb & j school lunch. There are simple ideas to more complex; veggie or meat options; some are quick to make and throw together while others need to be made ahead of time. Banana Snow Pea Crunches (Snow peas split and filled with a banana-cream cheese mix) has become a favorite of my 4 year-old daughter. For moms who feel overwhelmed trying to decide what to make, there's a nifty month-long chart towards the back of the book with a different lunch plan for every day in the month.
