It's not always easy to make your kids happy, especially when it comes to meals. Finding a balance between the picky eaters' choice foods and healthy and nutritious options can have you at a loss for good recipes. Instead of turning to the same old PB&J with baby carrots for the third week in a row, get inspired again by going through lunch recipes on family recipe apps. You can easily find quick recipes for simple weekday lunches that won't take too much time out of your busy schedule. Recipes apps are also a good way to filter searches so you can easily find options that work with any food allergies, intolerances or dislikes. It's also a good idea to find a good online cooking blog or recipes blog for lunch ideas, especially one that's specifically tailored to moms.

Working moms and busy stay at home moms can also benefit from weekly meal plans and meal prep to make preparing lunch even more streamlined. Using a meal planner app will prevent the early morning rushes to throw together a lunch or the last minute microwave meals come noon time. You can also get kid friendly meal prep tips from parenting websites and blogs to see what you can have ready ahead of time, so lunch time only takes a few minutes to have ready rather than half an hour. Everyone wants to be a great parent, and with a little extra organizing and planning ahead, you'll definitely feel much better and more on top of things than before.
