No Sandwich Lunchbox Fillers

Lunch boxes don't have to be boring, it can be so easy to fall into a lunch box repeat especially when you are short on time. But if you're sick of sandwiches then why not try one of these lunch box fillers here. 

All of these recipes freeze really well which saves so much time and waste. I normally take them out of the freezer the night before and leave in the fridge overnight ready to be packed in our yumbox. 

No Sandwich Lunchbox Fillers

Mini Broccoli Quiche

My children for some reason will not eat eggs but they will eat quiche so these mini broccoli quiches are brilliant. Using ready made shortcrust pastry means these are so simply and quick to make. The fact that it also has broccoli in it is an added bonus. You can find the recipe here.

Cheese and Tomato Bites

Cheese and tomato is always a winning combination and these bites do not disappoint. Use your favourite cookie cutters to create fun shapes. Find the recipe here. 

Carrot and Apple Muffins

These muffins are packed with carrot, apple and banana making them a fantasic healthy option for lunchboxes. My fussy eater has no idea that they contain carrot! You can find the recipe here.

Cheese and Spinach Muffins

These are new to our lunchbox rotation but  wish I had discovered them earlier. Cheese and spinach make a great combination. You can find the recipe here.

Savoury Vegetable Flapjack

These are our all time favourite lunch box fillers and the fact that they have hidden veg in them is a huge winner for my fussy eater. These are so versatile as they work with most root vegetables. You can find the recipe here. 

Puff Pastry Pinwheels

Puff pastry pinwheels are very adaptable and you can pretty much put whatever you like in them. Our favourites include Cheese & Spinach and Pizza. Using ready made puff pastry makes this such a quick and easy lunchbox filler.

Cheese and Tomato Quiche

Another of our mini quiche favourites are cheese and tomato, always a winning combination. You can find the recipe here.

Blackberry & Banana Muffin

When it comes to packing lunchboxes I always like to include a healthy treat. These muffins have been a favourite of ours for nearly 4 years. They are sweetened only with fruit so the perfect guilt free treat. You can find the recipe here. 

Sweetcorn Fritters

For something a little different then why not try these sweetcorn fritters. These definitely make a great change and are full of yummy sweetcorn. These are ready in ten minutes and you can find the recipe here.
