Ham & Cheese "Lunchable"

Skip to Recipe

Looking for a quick & easy lunch that packs in protein and healthy fats? Try out a homemade “lunchable”!

Packed with essential protein and healthy fats, this easy-to-prepare lunch ensures your child stays satiated and energized throughout the school day. By combining the savory goodness of ham and cheese with the nutritious crunch of almond flour crackers, you'll provide a well-rounded meal that supports their development and promotes a balanced diet. Plus, this lunchable is a breeze to pack, making it a convenient and stress-free choice for parents and caregivers.

Add a side of fruit or vegetables for a well-rounded mealtime with some fiber to support the gut! If your child is dairy-free, you can substitute your favorite dairy-free cheese. Or if your child isn’t a fan of ham, you can substitute turkey, chicken, or other deli meat!

Ingredients

  • 1 oz Cheddar Cheese (cubed) [choose dairy-free if needed]

  • 1 oz Sliced Ham

  • 2 ozs Crackers (we love Simple Mills!)
