You guys…next week is August…AUGUST!!! I am in shock. Where has this summer gone? I swear I feel the same way this time every year. I try to cram in a few more family trips and special time with the boys before the hustle and bustle of the school year takes over. I have vowed to be extremely organized this year….organized and FUN. I don’t think the fun should stop when the school year starts…do you?

This year we’re going to try to take a few weekend trips during the school year, maybe even surprise trips for the boys 🙂 Just somewhere close by but a chance for us to let loose and have fun.

Buuut, we’re not there yet. No, right now we are knee deep in planning for back to school and going shopping for school supplies and backpacks and lunch boxes and of course, that makes me start thinking about quick breakfast options for the boys and packing lunches that they’ll actually eat.

I’ve got some fun ideas today for lunch! Let’s talk kabobs. I’ve never met a kabob I didn’t like. I took some of my favorite lunches and broke them down into kabob-sized pieces that are just perfect for school lunch! These are seriously fun!

This pepperoni pizza kabob lunch is bound to make Reece and Bryce smile. Heck! It makes me smile! Fresh mozzarella, slices of pepperoni, cherry tomatoes and flatbread – easy and delicious!

This Chicken Cobb Salad is probably my favorite…avocado, grilled chicken, bacon, lettuce, cherry tomato, and boiled eggs – this kabob has it ALL! I’d probably also include a little container of ranch dressing for the boys (blue cheese for me!)

I love how beautifully these kabobs fit into these Glad Disney Multipacks. My boys saw the Star Wars containers at Walmart and were instantly hooked. That instantly segued into which Star Wars backpack and lunchbox they wanted for school 🙂 Boys! You know that we are all HUGE Disney fans so these containers are the perfect fit for our house.

If you’ve got girls…Frozen!

These multipacks are so cute and perfect for school lunches. The 14 piece multipack sets are ONLY available at Walmart and on Walmart.com – so get shopping! These cute containers seal in freshness and protect these kabobs until lunch time. BPA – free, dishwasher and microwave friendly, Glad Disney Multipacks are easy to use and easy to clean. These Disney Packs are 14 piece sets that stack neatly away when they aren’t being used – love it!

The options are endless when it comes to kabobs, so get creative! Use these easy recipes to start! Thread the ingredients onto cocktail stirrers, coffee stirrers, or small skewers.
