What to pack for kid's lunch box?

I know this question strikes in every school going mother's mind... We (moms') are always worried about our kid's health. How do you feel when they bring back their lunch box as it is! I know it increases our worries... Normally, my daughter finish her lunch box but few days back she was often bringing back half of the snacks. I was trying to understand the reason. She eats very slow and by that time she finishes no time left for garden playing!! Now this was a real concern...I somehow made her understand if you don't finish faster then you won't be strong enough to play in the garden..As of now it worked...But I also heard from parents saying they don't like the tiffin so they didn't eat.. Thankfully till now it did not happen with our daughter. So for those moms I got a new recipe of sandwich which is tasty and healthy too. We often prepare paneer bhurji as a side dish of roti. I have stuffed paneer bhurji and prepared paneer bhurji sandwich.
