15 great lunch ideas for when sandwiches start to get boring. Perfect for school or work! While I do love a good PB&J sandwich, sometimes a sandwich for lunch day in and day out gets a little old. For both kids and adults.

I love the idea of bento boxes although I will probably never be the mom who makes them with a theme in mind, even though they are super cute – but I like that they offer choices for the kiddos. I also think it helps get out of the bread sandwiches rut.

So I found some fun non sandwich lunch box ideas to share with you all! They are all super easy to make and changes up the regular old sandwich just enough to make them a hit with the kiddos (and adults, too!).
