What to you pack for kids' recess/lunch in school?
-
Daiso has those very small thermal lunch bags and they are very light. They also sell mini cooler packs which doesn’t really add significant weight. I started doing that for my P1 girl this week. I also use the same bag to pack cut fruits. It won’t be very cold, but at least cooler than our 30+ deg temp

I freeze yogurt with fruits in those small freezable Daiso lunch boxes, and by recess, the contents will have thawed nicely, cold enough to be food-safe and cool enough to eat comfortably.

Hi CayennePepper
Can I check with you, does the freezing/thawing affect the texture of the yoghurt? DD loves yoghurt, but I’m hesitant because I know my thermal bag won’t be able to keep it cool enough till recess. -

Yes i think the thawing does affects the texture a bit, but not significantly. And some brands seem less susceptible. I experimented to get one that everyone approves of.
I find that the frozen strawberries, grapes etc (i cut them up first) act like little ice cubes and keep the yogurt cool enough in the thermal bag. -

Like some food cannot be re-freezed once they hv been thawed. -

As for yoghurt, it is not thawed int he 1st place. Anyway, my home have this habit of freezing our yoghurt and then scrapping it off the tub...and eat it like shaved ice!

Hi. Can we share what we cook for our children to bring to school for lunch?
I am a lousy cook http://www.sherv.net/emoticons.html so I thought of getting some ideas here :idea:
We can share other tips too e.g. container, etc.
TIA
