My lunches are almost always healthy, but snacks are so small that I feel it's ok to serve goodies sometimes. We have milk and a cookie every Friday and yogurt with graham crackers every Monday. I don't serve junk, but I'm not as worried about healthy when it comes to snack.

Breakfasts are the same every week... Banana/Cheerios, strawberries/frozen waffles, canned mandarin oranges/box mix muffins, canned pineapple/English muffin, banana/Cheerios. I despise cleaning up after breakfast so I make it super simple.

I use canned fruits as much as I can. I know they aren't as healthy as fresh, but my group is small and it's hard to not have large amounts of waste when I buy all fresh. I buy as much frozen veggies as I can both for waste reasons and because I feel it can be healthier. Frozen veggies are usually frozen when they're at their ripest while fresh is picked and allowed to ripen in the store.
