Healthy Lunch Box Ideas for Kids: Tropical Whip

This healthy lunch box snack is so simple to make that my three (and a half!) and my eight year old take it in turns to make a batch for the school week ahead! Inspired by the very delicious Berry Whip by Well Nourished, our tropical version is just perfect for my pineapple lovers, and when we pop a small frozen container of this into an insulated lunch bag it is lovely and soft by morning recess time. Immy says it’s the consistency of ice cream!

Healthy Lunch Box Ideas: Tropical Whip

You will need:

  • 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks – fresh or tinned
  • Flesh of 1/2 avocado
  • 1 medium banana, peeled and sliced
  • 5 tablespoons coconut cream (though greek yoghurt works too – it’s just a little less tropical)
  • 1 tablespoon of honey

To make:

Place all ingredients into a blender or food processor and combine until smooth.

Serve and eat immediately or spoon into small individual containers (I add 3-4 tablespoons to each container and this mix makes around 6 serves). Freeze individual serves.

Add to your child’s lunch bag with a spoon for a lovely, healthy recess treat.
