You might think of guacamole as the favorite dip at parties or an appetizer served at a Mexican restaurant. I’m here to tell you that it’s also a great option to build a healthy school lunch!

We all know that guacamole is good for you because it’s made with avocados. It’s full of healthy fats, fiber, and minerals such as potassium from the avocado, which are all reasons why guacamole is a perfect item to pack for the lunchbox!

This Tex Mex Bento is built with guacamole, chips, cheese, black olives, and fresh veggies. It’s practically party food for lunch and they are super quick to assemble making them a great option for fast meal prep.

If you want to make this bento even more nutritious swap the chips for whole grain crackers, pita chips, or my personal favorite, plantain chips -yum!! Get more bistro box inspiration here.
