No matter how many lunch box ideas I come up with, I am always excited to see new ideas. Hopefully you feel the same way because today I will be sharing some gluten free lunch box ideas. You don’t have to be allergic to gluten to appreciate these ideas because they taste great for everyone.

School has been back in session for us for a few weeks. Yes, Nashville, does start early! Anyway, I love packing lunch for my kids. I know everyone does it differently. My husband packs lunches the night before when I am out of town because he has to rush out with the kiddos in the morning. My mom always had me pack my own lunch and I think it is a great way to learn responsibility. However, I just love packing their lunches in the morning. While I pack, we chat about the upcoming day. I feel like I get to send a little piece of home with them when they go off to school.

Crunchmaster Challenge: The Best Gluten Free Crackers & Chips

This post is sponsored by Crunchmaster® and they challenged me to share some of my best gluten free lunch box ideas. Of course, they know all about gluten-free since they make the best gluten free crackers and gluten free chips.

Crunchmaster is an alternative cracker brand that makes full-flavored snacks made with brown rice and wholesome ingredients that are oven-baked. As the name suggests, they deliver some delicious crunchy satisfaction. The thin and crispy Crunchmaster crackers are low in sugar and naturally gluten free.

All Crunchmaster products are certified gluten-free and kosher. Many are also non-GMO Project Verified, 100% Whole Grain, and free of saturated and trans fats. They use simple, wholesome ingredients like brown rice, quinoa, flax, corn, amaranth, millet, sunflower, chickpea, and edamame. You can buy them in such local stores as Publix, Kroger, Harris Teeter, and Target. To see a full list of your local stores that carry Crunchmaster, visit crunchmaster.com and use the store locator.

As you might guess, Crunchmaster crackers and chips are natural shoe in for my gluten free lunch box ideas. The Crunchmaster crackers and chips are great for dips, for mini sandwiches, and just crunching all by themselves. There are so many delicious ways to go gluten free! Have you tried Crunchmaster crackers? Which ones are your favorite?
