Both my little dues love taking a packed lunch to school, but they&#8217;re never afraid to tell me when they&#8217;re sick and tired of something. I may have overplayed cookie cutter turkey and cheese shapes recently. Thankfully, I pride myself on keeping on my toes and in partnership with KRAFT Foods and Sam&#8217;s Club, I researched some new lunch ideas that I could pack for them that are fresh, easy to pack, and a welcome break from pb&amp;j.<\/p>\n<p>You may not realize it, but grilled cheese sammies are a great packed school lunch and we recently tried this out with huge success. The secret is keeping them soggy-free by allowing them to cool completely before packaging them. Here is my clever way on how to pack grilled cheese for school lunch.<\/p>\n<h3>Make your grilled cheese as you normally would<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-pack-grilled-cheese-for-school-lunch1.jpg\" alt=\"how to pack grilled cheese for school lunch1\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-pack-grilled-cheese-for-school-lunch2.jpg\" alt=\"how to pack grilled cheese for school lunch2\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>Simply make your grilled cheese as you normally would. For me, it&#8217;s butter on the outside sides of the bread and <a target=\"_self\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1LsUy1g\" rel=\"nofollow\">KRAFT Singles<\/a> inside. Is there even any other cheese choice when it comes to grilled cheese? I feel like KRAFT Singles are the ultimate trophy winner in the grilled cheese lunch category\u2026well, let&#8217;s be real, <em>any<\/em> lunch category. I stock up on these singles at my local Sam&#8217;s Club since I use them so frequently in my boys lunches.<\/p>\n<h3>Transfer grilled cheese to a cutting board to cool<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-pack-grilled-cheese-for-school-lunch3.jpg\" alt=\"how to pack grilled cheese for school lunch3\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>Once your sammie is grilled to perfection, transfer it to a cutting board or plate to cool. On days you decided to pack a grilled cheese, make it before you do the rest of your morning routine so it has plenty of time to cool down. Once the sandwich is room temperature, it&#8217;s ready to be packed in a lunch pail.<\/p>\n<h3>Wrap the grilled cheese in tinfoil or a sandwich container<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-pack-grilled-cheese-for-school-lunch10.jpg\" alt=\"how to pack grilled cheese for school lunch10\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-pack-grilled-cheese-for-school-lunch11.jpg\" alt=\"how to pack grilled cheese for school lunch11\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-pack-grilled-cheese-for-school-lunch12.jpg\" alt=\"how to pack grilled cheese for school lunch12\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>Wrap your grilled cheese in tinfoil or a plastic container. Since it&#8217;s completely cool, it won&#8217;t sweat inside (which causes soggy bread) and will remain nice and crispy until lunch time consumption.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve got it on hand, warm up some tomato soup and transfer it to a thermos. When you&#8217;re kiddo unpacks his lunch on a cold winter day, he&#8217;ll be the warmest kid in the lunch room!<\/p>\n<p>Oh look, an extra grilled cheese for me?
