Back to school essentials made easy

Back to school is an exciting time for parents and students; school lunch ideas make it easier to plan lunches for all students in the house. Shop at Carrs sandwich ingredients, snacks, ready-made lunches and treats. Ready-made lunches aren’t just for field trips, but for any lunch away from home.

Grab and go items like fresh fruit, fresh vegetables and snack bars give students plenty of options to enjoy. Ready to eat items make it easy to pack lunches they love. Not sure where to start in terms of lunch planning? Start with building a great sandwich. You can stack deli meat together with pickles, onions and thinly sliced cheese or go full veggie with crisp vegetables and ready-made dips

A sweet treat can round out a lunchbox well: yogurt, applesauce, cookies or a slice of cake are all great options.

It doesn’t have to stop at lunch, of course: you can bring convenience to school night dinners too! Taco night is a fun way to gather everyone around the table. Let them dress up their tacos any way they want, from choosing between hard and soft tacos and their choice of proteins, cheeses and veggies. Sour cream can be held on the side to allow even more choice. Beans and rice round out the table at taco night, but feel free to build the dinner based on everyone’s favorites.

Day or night, shop at Carrs for back-to-school staples, sandwich ingredients, snacks and plenty of sweet treats.
