Egg Salad on 90 Second Bread
Make Egg Salad for the adults and the kiddos! It's easy to Pressure cook (we have this one) a dozen eggs and make a big batch of egg salad for the family! You can save a few hard boiled eggs as a side dish for another day, or make the whole pot into egg salad!

Diced Ham with Cheese
Super simple and satisfies just about any kid! You can really use any leftover meat from dinner the night before! If we make a cauliflower/broccoli casserole with (like this one), we'll just pull a little off to the side for lunches. You can do this with steak, pork, or anything else you're making! I usually dice it up so my little kids can eat it easier, but you can leave larger pieces too!
Chicken Salad on 90 Second Bread
My Pressure Cooker/Ninja Foodi (this one) is definitely a go-to when I'm making lunches for the week. After I cook up eggs, I might also do a batch of chicken (instructions here) that I can shred or dice for a dinner casserole or for chicken salad for lunch. When I can make meat for multiple meals at once...I'm a happy guy! Check out our Chicken Salad recipe here: Chicken Salad
Chicken Tenders with BBQ & Ranch
While you're making some chicken in your Instant Pot, grab some chicken tenders from Costco or your nearest grocery store to make this awesome lunch finger food! Here's a super easy way to Instant pot some chicken: Cooking Instructions
I cook the tenders in poultry seasoning and then include a side of Ranch and BBQ sauce (this option from Stevia Sweet or this one from Alterna Sweets)
Deli Wrap with Low Carb Tortillas
Simple Low Carb Tortillas like these Folios or Coconut wraps make super easy lunches. Buy your favorite deli meat (less processed the better!), add some avocado, greens and cheese and you've got a healthy, utensil free lunch!
