What does your 16 teen have for lunch?
Mine likes fresh chicken curry. Her dad is a good cook. Leaves it frozen. But it's a nightmare.

Ideas for easy lunches for fussy teens.

And what do your guys eat?

DD 16 cooks for herself (through choice).

Yesterday she made chicken soup from bones of roast the day before with some rice. Often pasta with pesto and mozzarella.

Your DD will need to learn food doesn't magically appear!

She cooks her own for a start. No way would I be getting involved in a 16yos lunches. Eggs mainly.

She won't plan ahead to take out of freezer.
Wants fresh gourmet. With no planning each day.

Husband falls in with her ideas.

So - what do you guys do that is easy?

Chicken curry is too fussy for a lunch. Too much preparation.

Falafal is eqsier

Who is it a nightmare for, in what way? It sounds good!

DS will usually make a falafel wrap or cheese on toast.
