I like to add cooked chicken to Zatarain's boxed rice. I especially like to add it to the Jambalaya and Red Beans and Rice. It's a one pot meal.

I also shred it and simmer it with salsa and use it for tacos, burritos, or nachos.

My husband shreds it and then sautes some onions until tender, adds bbq sauce and the chicken. He simmers it until everythig is hot and then makes a sandwich with it.

What are some easy lunch recipe for school?

I need something that is easy to make, tasty, healthy! I never have enough time in the morning to do anything! So something I could make the night before would be a lot better! There are no microwaves at school but I don't mind eating hot foods at room temp.. :)


Answer
- Egg Salad!- Hard boil the eggs, dice them, and mix them with mayo and seasonings. Put the salad in a container separate from the bread. When you get to lunch, just put it on the bread with a spoon. Have with a fruit, a cup of milk, and a little treat- that way you get a healthy balanced meal.
You can also do this with chicken salad, or tuna salad.

- Grilled Chicken strips and a soft pretzel with honey mustard dip. Have with a fruit and a cup of milk or fruit and a yogurt.

- Grilled chicken sandwich- Bring a packet or little cup of mayo, a container of grilled chicken breast with lettuce and tomato, and a separate bread roll. Spread the mayo on and put the chicken/lettuce/tomato on the bread. Have that with a side salad, or a fruit, or yogurt. You could also have it with cheese and crackers!

- Tacos! Make taco filling- I like some ground beef mixed into refried beans with salsa- pack it in one container. In another container pack some shredded lettuce and cheese. In a third little container have some sour cream. And then pack some taco shells of your choice. Put the tacos together when you get to school.

- Pasta Salad

- Chicken caesar salad wrap

- Tuna Salad Wrap

- Buffalo Chicken Wrap

- Yogurt parfaits with cereal and nuts. Fruit juice. And a snack.
