I think there is a similar thread for this
'Daily kids menu update'

pls chk that

 

Please see if it helps . You can change few things according to your daughters taste.

Dont send the regular eatables(Idly,dosa,rice) which we eat frequently at home.

Assumption : She will return home by 2pm else you can pack few more items.

 

very useful ideas on this thread,

 

Fried rice,pav baji,pizza,ghee rice,jeera rice,stuffed roti

 

try variety rice, stuffed chapathis, Burger

 

Kids love Junk Stuff,instead of junk filling you can mix diff. veggies to fill veg.rolls,burgers,sandwiches etc
My kids love Bhaji roll,capsicum onion fillings and paneer filling.

 

u can make differnt kinds of cakes/cupcakes with fruits and nuts and give in tiffin. Replace the refined flour used for cake with wheat flour and add any fruit like apple, banana, mango, strawberries, orange juice etc or even grated carrot or pumpkin along with kismiss, cashew, almond or walnut pieces. If the kids dont like the nuts u can even add powdered nuts. U can also replace the sugar with honey which makes it even more healthier.

This becomes a wholesome meal for the kids and they would love to eat it. Once in a while u can do icing also to make it more appealing to them.
