Didn’t feel complete

While the book and photos are stunning I was hoping for a more complete lunch prep. Possibly a list of possible snack, veggies, fruits, etc.

10/10

So excited to use this book for my kids school lunches this upcoming school year. 10/10 to know what to pack, how to pack and store it, is going to be incredible!! There was a cheat sheet that came with the book, and that alone was GOLD.

Very basic

Simple cookbook, some good ideas. But some are so basic, like sending a cheese quesadilla. The photos are beautiful.

Great lunch idea Book

This cookbook is a good read through! Pictures are beautiful. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because I’m not a fan of the roll ups for lunch (usually get some form of wet or soggy especially if you do it in advance)!
Some really great ideas & I loved the extra suggestions for what else to pack with it.

Great book and high quality printing

The BEST School Lunch Ideas!

I've been wanting this cookbook for so long and finally got it -- and it's the best! I don't have kids yet, but I use this for my lunches and it has the best most creative ideas for lunches that I'm actually excited to eat and look forward to. If you're wavering, buy it!

Love it!

My husband and I are semi retired empty nesters. I saw your segment on Studio 5, and decided we needed some new lunch ideas….your cookbook was just what we needed.
Even though your intention was for school lunches, the recipes are great for picnics. The photos in the cookbook are beautiful with easy to follow
recipes. The binding is very nice and sturdy which is impressive especially at the price point of the book. I highly recommend.

Such a Time Saver!

I love all of Brittany's books and could not wait for this one. It is so helpful and give a ton of ideas- sandwiches, non-sandwiches, and hot lunches. Thank you for creating this!

I have the other two cookbooks and use them all the time so of course I had to get this one. So good! Thank you!

Meh

I was a bit disappointed with this cookbook. The first thing that turned me off was that in the into it only addresses “moms” as being in charge of school lunches. I would have loved more inclusive language, like “parents” or “caregivers” and even “kids” instead of just “moms.” I didn’t realize most of the things would need to be store bought- there is no actual recipe for things like lunchable pizza bread, which would have been awesome. I’m a little upset that one of the “recipes” is literally “Nutella on bread” - directions: spread Nutella on bread. More than anything, this is a collection of beautiful pictures to get your kids looking at visual options. It’s a beautiful book, but practically not great for me, and too much hassle to return.

This cookbook is the best!

I love all of Brittney’s cookbooks. Being a person who likes quick but delicious meals and snacks, I have found the pot of gold!

So helpful!

So many wonderful, easy recipe ideas that my kids have loved so far. I was struggling so much knowing what to make them each day and this has given me so many great ideas!

Yet another great investment!

Everything from home kind I’ve ever purchased has been very thoughtful and we have loved. I love these cookbooks. This one is going to be really great for helping my kids make some decisions on their own and I love how simple the recipes are not complex, but they are, helpful and very reasonable for school lunches. I do not like doing complicated recipes for lunches for kids.
