Ingredients
- 4 meatballs, beef or turkey
- ¼ cup tomato sauce
- 4 thin baguette slices, toasted
Instructions
Prep:
- If sending this lunch warm to school in a thermos container, fill the thermos with hot water for 5 minutes. Empty the hot water out before adding the hot food.
- Warm the meatballs and sauce in a microwave-safe dish, covered, for 2 minutes until they’re piping hot.
Assemble:
- For a hot lunch: put the meatballs and sauce inside the thermos and close the lid.
- At room temperature: put the meatballs in one compartment of the lunch box, skewered or not, and the sauce in another.
- Pack the toasted baguette slices, or a bread roll, in a separate compartment or container. Add silverware inside the lunch bag.
- Add fruit and any other healthy sides to complete this lunch and put everything inside a lunch bag.
