Growing Chefs! Ontario: Elementary Hot Lunch Menus

Fall Elementary Menu 2025

Mediterranean Dipper Lunchbox – A colourful, build-your-own style lunch with crispy spiced chickpeas, pita chips, olives, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, halloumi cheese, and two dips — white bean spread and tzatziki. Lots of texture and flavour, and totally picnic-ready.

Pizza Pinwheels – Golden, cheesy swirls of soft pizza dough rolled with our house-made tomato sauce, mozzarella, and a sprinkle of herbs; baked to perfection. Comes with a side of crunchy veggie sticks and fresh seasonal fruit.

Sandwich Sampler Surprise – Two chef’s choice sandwich halves featuring kid-friendly; think creamy egg salad, turkey & cheddar roll-ups, or veggie and hummus delights. Served with fresh seasonal fruit and crunchy veggie sticks for a fun, tasty lunch that’s always a little surprise!

Taco Bowl – All the fun of taco night in one cozy bowl! Seasoned ground beef and black beans served over warm brown rice, topped with shredded cheese and mild tomato salsa. Served with a colourful side of sweet corn, diced bell peppers, cherry tomato and tortilla strips so kids can mix and match their perfect bite.

Chef’s Club Special – A rotating hot feature based on what’s coming out of the garden and what’s happening in the kitchen that week. Could be anything from veggie-packed flatbreads to garden stir-fries — keeps things interesting and lets the kids try something new each week.
