Healthy lunches are not always easy. I don’t know about you, but when I don’t make school lunch the night before I always find myself running around like a crazy woman the next morning trying to pack lunch, drink coffee, feed the kids breakfast, and fix the backwards-facing shoes that my toddler proudly put on himself.<\/p>\n

\"Chickpea<\/p>\n

I do my best to pack the night before, but it doesn’t always happen. That’s when the freezer-friendly pancakes come out. Pancakes will thaw by the time lunch arrives, so I can throw them in the bento box and go. A healthy lunch is served! These savoury chickpea pancakes are super easy to make and freeze well when separated by a bit of parchment paper. They are also loaded with hidden veggies, but your picky eater won’t see them. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I love making as many recipes as possible in my food processor or mini blender. With these pancakes, I can throw all of the ingredients into the blender and whip it up! I start with the wet ingredients, and then gently pulse the dry ingredients in after. Fewer dishes means less time cleaning up! Yay!<\/p>\n

My kids also LOVE to dip their food (in just about anything). So I like to add protein-rich Greek yogurt with a bit of lime and coriander to the side for dipping. <\/p>\n

Back to school is especially challenging for me this year since my little Oscar is starting his first year! We’ve had a wonderful time together this summer creating fun back to school lunch recipe like this one for Dunnes Stores. They’ve been especially supportive as Oscar and I make the journey towards his first year of school. <\/p>\n
