Back-to-school season is here — which means busy mornings, packed schedules, and the daily question every parent faces: what’s going in the lunchbox today? At Wilders, we believe lunches can be both simple and nutritious, without sacrificing flavor. That’s why our 100% Fullblood Wagyu beef and Berkshire pork products are perfect for creating healthy, protein-packed meals your kids will actually enjoy.
Here are a few ideas to help you pack lunches that fuel your family all school year long:
1. Mini 100% Fullblood Wagyu Sliders
Skip the fast food and make your own kid-sized sliders. Use Wilders 100% Fullblood Wagyu ground beef for juicy patties, add a slice of cheese, and tuck them into small slider buns. Pair with carrot sticks or apple slices for a balanced lunch.
2. Berkshire Pork Sausage Pinwheels
Roll Wilders mild sausage with cream cheese and spinach inside a tortilla, then slice into pinwheels. They’re fun, bite-sized, and a sneaky way to add greens.
3. Snack Stick Power Packs
Pair our 100% Fullblood Wagyu snack sticks with cheese cubes, whole grain crackers, and fresh grapes. This grab-and-go option is perfect for kids who need a high-protein lunch or after-school boost.
4. 100% Fullblood Wagyu Wraps
Layer thin slices of 100% Fullblood Wagyu steak or leftover roast with lettuce, tomato, and a light spread inside a whole wheat wrap. Slice into halves or pinwheels for easy eating.
5. Breakfast-for-Lunch Bento
Use our hickory smoked bacon or maple sausage links to create a “breakfast for lunch” box. Add hard-boiled eggs, mini pancakes, and fruit for a fun twist kids love.
6. Pulled Pork Quesadillas
Use leftover Wilders Berkshire pulled pork between a tortilla folded in half with shredded cheese. Heat until golden, then cut into wedges. Perfectly packable and sure to be a lunchtime favorite.
