Does anyone have good ideas for what to put in a school lunch, other than sandwiches?
Thanks

I think the only restriction is that it can't be something that needs to be heated. There are B"H no allergy restrictions or anything like that. Also, I don't want anything too expensive.
Also, my kids are picky eaters, especially my four year old.

I wasn't sure if you are looking for ideas for mains or for sides...
I usually put in a small H2o bottle and for sides, at least 2 zip bags of whatever I have at the moment:
bell pepper strips
raisins/craisins
berries
cucumbers
crackers
baby carrots
grapes
sesame noodles
For main dishes my kids like:
Tuna/salmon salad in a container w/ carrots or cucumbers for scooping
tuna/salmon pinwheels (tuna & cream cheese on a tortilla, rolled up and sliced into 1/2" pinwheels)
hard boiled eggs or stuffed eggs
cold pizza slice
quesadilla (tortilla w/melted cheese)
yogurt
cheese sticks
"chickenless" nuggets
gefilte fish
"ants on a log" (apple slices with peanut butter and raisins)-I put everything in separately and they build them at school
Hope you find something new to add!

my daughter has been in school for two yrs and the school isnt kosher to our standards and we had to get special permission for her to be the only one in the school to bring her own lunch and it also has to be either parve or fleishic and they dont heat it up. its so hard thinking what to send. I send things like pasta veggie shnitzels veggie sausages. cold chicken cold meatballs, really whatever I have left over that is cold and bh she is fabulous and usually eats it all but this year my younger daughter is starting and she is a really fussy eater and I dont have a clue what im going to do about her lunch as all she likes is cream cheese sandwiches but bc technically the place they eat is fleishic they are not allowed to bring milky stuff

Cute pix. This is a lady with seriously too much free time :D - and that's saying a lot coming from me, PLUS with all that work, the kids are eating mostly JUNK!!! She should spend her time cooking, not designing lunch. LOL.
