The simplest and healthiest foods look extra-yummy when they're tucked inside colorful little compartments. That's the idea behind Laptop Lunches, the company that sells these cute plastic sets (starting at $21; laptoplunches.com). We filled the containers with a protein, some fruit, a vegetable, and a small treat -- all in perfect-size portions for kids 5 to 8.

All Dressed Up

  • 1 cup bow-tie pasta salad with veggies
  • 1 cup baby greens salad with 2 tablespoons low-fat dressing
  • 3/4 cup watermelon
  • 2 fig cookies
