Having a child with dietary restrictions can make the back-to-school season a little more stressful. However, packing a balanced, gluten-free lunchbox for your kids doesn’t have to be a daunting task. With a little planning and creativity, you can prepare yummy meals that will fuel your children through their school day. 

Here are four easy and wholesome lunchbox ideas that balance taste, nutrition, and convenience, all while catering to a gluten-free diet.

 

1. Turkey and Veggie Wraps

Main: Gluten-free tortillas filled with sliced turkey, lettuce, tomato, and avocado. Sides: Baby carrots and cucumber slices. Fruit: A small container of mixed berries. Snack: Grab The Gold snack bar 

Turkey and veggie wraps provide lean protein and fresh vegetables. Pair the wraps with baby carrots and cucumber slices, perhaps adding ranch dressing as a dip for both the vegetables & turkey wrap. 

 

2. Quinoa Salad with Chickpeas

Main: Quinoa salad with chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and feta cheese. Sides: Sliced bell peppers and hummus.Fruit: Apple slices. Snack: Grab The Gold snack bar and pretzels

Quinoa, combined with chickpeas, tomatoes, cucumber, and feta, makes a satisfying, unique salad. Add bell peppers with hummus for crunch and apple slices for sweetness. A Grab The Gold snack bar and pretzels ensure a well-rounded snack, packed with protein, fiber, and potassium.

 

3. Chicken and Rice Bento Box

Main: Grilled chicken strips with brown rice. Sides: Steamed broccoli and snap peas. Fruit: Orange segments. Snack: Grab The Gold snack bar 

A bento box with grilled chicken and brown rice is simple and nutritious. Include steamed broccoli and snap peas for greens, and orange segments for vitamin C. Finish with a Grab The Gold bar for a protein-packed sweet treat.


4. Greek Yogurt and Berry Parfait

Main: Greek yogurt layered with fresh berries and a drizzle of honey. Sides: Gluten-free granola. Fruit: Banana slices. Snack: Grab The Gold bar for added protein.

A Greek yogurt parfait with berries and honey is usually a go-to breakfast option but works great for lunch. Pack gluten-free granola separately to keep it crunchy. Include banana slices and a Grab The Gold snack bar for a well-rounded, satisfying meal. Pro Tip: You can crumble your Grab The Gold snack bar into your yogurt if you’ve run out of gluten-free granola!




These four lunchbox ideas incorporate a variety of food groups, providing balanced meals. With the added convenience and protein of Grab The Gold bars, you can be confident that your child is getting a wholesome lunch that fuels their day.
