Two kid faves in one.
I’m very lucky to have kids who aren’t picky eaters. However, I’ve met enough kids who are to know that it’s always handy to know a few can’t-miss dishes to fall back on if the kids flat-out refuse everything else.One dish that even the pickiest eaters won’t turn up their noses at is waffles – just the heat-and-serve kind you can pick up in any grocery freezer case. And another is the good old-fashioned peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich.
So if you want a lunch your kids are absolutely guaranteed to like, what could possibly be better than putting them together?
This PBJ Waffle Sandwich Lunchbox Idea is just the classic PBJ sandwich, but served on multigrain waffles instead of bread. Kids will be love having two of their favorites in one, and they’ll be tickled with the novelty of eating this breakfast food as part of a lunchtime sandwich.
You can round out this meal by throwing in a hard-boiled egg for some extra protein and a mandarin orange for the vitamins. But even if the kids don’t finish everything, you can be confident that the Waffle PBJ will be enough to keep their tummies full through the afternoon.

The p&j is there a certain one we should use? I’m on weight watchers.

The powdered pb fit is a nice low point replacement for real peanut butter.
