Easy Lunch Kabobs


Plant-Based Lunch Kabobs

I originally shared this recipe (if you want to call it a recipe) a couple of years ago, but I've started making them a whole lot lately as my daughter is hitting that period in the school year where she's getting bored with the same old lunch. (I'll admit we make her the same thing pretty much everyday.) They're incredibly easy to make and fun to eat. I have two versions I make: a savory sandwich version, and a sweeter fruit version.

Serves 1

SANDWICH-KABOB INGREDIENTS
1 cheddar cheese stick or plant-based cheddar stick (I like Daiya brand) 
Bread 
Cherry or Grape Tomatoes
Romaine Lettuce

FRUIT-KABOB INGREDIENTS
1 mozzarella cheese stick or plant-based mozzarella stick (I like Daiya brand) 
Bread 
Strawberries
Grapes


Cut both cheese sticks into cubes. Cut bread into small squares. Cut romaine lettuce into small, foldable pieces. Cut the tops off the strawberries, and cut the tomatoes in half. For the sandwich-kabob, layer cheddar cubes, bread, tomatoes, and romaine lettuce onto a skewer and repeat until filled. For fruit kabobs, layer mozzarella cubes, strawberries, and grapes until filled.

You guys already know how much I adore Daiya and their seriously delicious, better-for-you plant-based comfort foods, so it's probably no surprise that we've fallen in love with their new Deluxe Cheeze Sticks as well. Whether I'm making these kabobs or just throwing one in Essley's lunchbox, Daiya Cheeze Sticks are the perfect school lunch staple. Available in Cheddar Style and Mozzarella Style flavors, they're great for a quick snack on the way to activities too. They are also dairy, soy, and gluten-free, and a good source of calcium. And most importantly, both of my kids love them. (So do their parents!)

I admittedly eat these for lunch or snacks myself all the time. So good!
