Figuring out what to put in a child's lunchbox has to be one of the hardest parts of back to school time for elementary school parents. You want nutritious options, but something the kids will eat as well. It is especially hard if your kids aren't fans of sandwiches. Here are some great non-sandwich main dish ideas to fill up their bellies at school.
