Special Weekend Post: Lunch Round Up One

For me, lunch can sometimes start to feel a bit like a drag. I lose my motivation, drive, and creativity! I start realizing that I'm packing the same things over and over and my poor Monkey is the one that gets to eat my lack-luster lunch. 

What's a mom to do?

First thing I do is look back at old lunches and find ones that I really like. Sometimes they're things I haven't made in a while and are perfect material for a fresh lunch.

When that doesn't work?

I check out friends blogs.

Still can't get the mojo flowing? I hit Pinterest and look at my lunch inspiration board and look for lunch round-ups from other people that are out there posting their lunches for the world to share in! So, if this happens to you, then I hope you can find SOMETHING here to use! Below are 20 ideas, enough for a month's worth of school lunches. Enjoy.
