Made this bulgogi ciabatta sandwich at home for my middle schooler’s lunch today.
Thin-sliced bulgogi, sautéed onions and mushrooms, with a few jalapeño slices for a little kick.
Trying to keep school lunches simple, packable, and not embarrassing for middle school kids is harder than I expected 😅
This one was quick to make and actually got a thumbs-up, so I’m calling it a win.
What do your middle schoolers usually bring for lunch?
Any easy, realistic ideas that work on busy mornings?

Bruh. That looks amazing. Can I be one of your kids? (Or at least get lunches like that?)

Pfft no Prime or Beastables, kid’s going to get stuffed in a locker /s
As per your question, if he’s an active kid then rich and cheesy pasta dishes are a good bet, or a rice bowl type of thing.
Anything like my kid and they’d complain that it’s not a Lumchable.
Damn when I was in MS no way I would’ve eaten that I was a picky kid however no one knew, outside of Korea, what bulgogi was back then! Looks fantastic!
I’d eat it.
It’s me, ur middle schooler
I was way too soft to deal with jalapenos when I was a kid – this kid is tough.
Korean Italian beef
Bro that shit is going to be so dry in the hours it sits in thier lunchbox
Just fyi, my son’s (Indian) friend brings elaborate dishes for lunch. He trades them all off to other kids for PB&J, Cheetos, Oreos, etc.
That looks so delicious. I wish I knew how to make bulgogi 😭
That’s looking pretty damn good
I wish my 13 year old ate that. His food is air, pizza or nuggets
Hey, it’s me… you’re other middle schooler. Very much looking forward to mine, thanks!
What’d you use to make the meat bulgogi?
Lotta jalapeños. I like em but that is a lot. It does look very good though. I think I would toss a little cheese on mine.
