Thursday Food Tip: Are you looking for healthy alternatives to school lunch options or do you have a picky eater? Here are some ideas to start the new school year.

-Get your kids involved in creating their lunches by having them help make protein balls or muffins.
-Divided compartments or containers help separate different foods.
-Include a cold pack to keep things chilled.
