Here's a peak at one of my recent real food lunchbox ideas for on-the-go lunches.

I packed a bunch of goodies that I shared with my Tiny Love. For the main protein, I made organic ham rollups with raw organic cheddar cheese and fermented pickles {I always like to include at least one fermented food with our meals}.

I filled up the larger round container with grass-fed organic whole plain yogurt, with a little bit of my favoritegrass-fed collagenmixed in for extra protein and drizzled with raw honey {we added blueberries to it too}.

For organic veggies, I packed some carrots, cucumber and Sungold cherry tomatoes. The little round container has organic cultured sour cream {Nancy's brand} with a little bit of Celticsea salt and some spices mixed into it for a homemade french onion veggie dip.

For the organic fruit, I packed some white nectarines, plums and blueberries {eat with the season}. I added a few delicious organic Medjool dates, removed the pits and put some sea salted macadamia nuts in them for a little extra healthy fat.

And of course, I always need a little bit of sweet with my meals ... chocolate always has a special place in my heart. There's a few squares of my favoritefair-trade, organic chocolate caramel crunch with sea salt barin the center.

Not shown in the photo is kombucha. We almost always have a fermented drink like kombucha, water kefir or Switchel with our meals. One of my favorite brands is GT's Kombucha. My family's favorite flavors are Trilogy, Guava Goddess, Gingerade and Passionberry Bliss.

My kids and I love this eco-friendly lunchbox container from PlanetBoxthat I packed this lunch in.It's come in handy several times this summer on day trips and outings.

My girls also love to sit together and use it as a tray at home for lunch, each of them using one side of the tray ... they think it's pretty cool. It also comes with an insulated fabric carry bag that has compartments for utensils, napkins, and a small drink bottle.

My little one, Tiny Love calls it her purse ... too cute. Ours came with some fun ocean-themed magnets that the girls like to stick on the container. It adds a little fun flair.Like the lunchbox? Get it here.
