Here's a post on easy and healthy meals that can be prepared and packed as lunch for children and pre-teens. You can also try them too, they are easy to prepare and delish!
Make sure your child takes a fruit and vegetable daily. You should too.
lay a large leaf of cucumber on the bread, put the chicken patty, lay another cucumber leaf in top, add slices of tomato and onion if your children like them (mine dont) and cover with another slice of toast.
There goes your first meal.
2. Sweet potato porridge
Wash sweet potato thoroughly, boil with the skin on so it doesn't get too soft.
After cooking, blanch in cool water and remove skin
set aside to cool completely
Boil roughly ground pepper till its almost dry, add seasoning, sliced onions, some fish, crayfish (whatever you like) and a little oil.
Cut your cooled, boiled potatoes into cubes and mix with the pepper while still on fire. Add some shredded ugwu (pumpkin leaves) and leave to simmer for about 2 minutes.
3. Boil a few slices of yam, set aside to cool
Spice eggs (salt, pepper, and whatever else you wish)
to make the meal more interesting, use cookie cutters to cut different shapes from the yam, if you have them.
Put 2 teaspoons of oil in a non stick fry pan, put the yam slices and pour 3/4 of the egg mixture over them, turn each slice over after a few seconds and pour in the remaining eggs.
Keep turning until egg is completely cooked. Garnish with slices of carrot and cabbage
