Let’s Make Some Lunch contains a wide range of recipes with easy-to-follow instructions. There truly is a recipe for every adult. I say adult because even though this cookbook seems to be intended for a child’s lunch it isn’t practical or appealing. I asked a few children where I work if they would eat any lunches in the book if their parents made it. The resounding answer was no. That being said… the adults went nuts. A lot of the lunches could be leftovers from a previous meal. Case in point the ribeye or blackened salmon. Although you might start a riot in the breakroom reheating fish.

I would rate this book 3.5 stars only because I don’t think it fits the target group but adults would get a kick out of it for their lunches.

This book is genuinely great. Most of the recipes are high effort, but I think it’s true to the way she cooks. It’s very accurate to her TikTok account, and I don’t think anything about this book will disappoint her fans. My only issue is the difficulty ratings— nothing’s a 4* recipe, and somehow fried chicken skewers rank below broiled satay. I consider deep frying harder and scarier, but maybe I’m missing something.

As a stay-at-home mom of a school-age child, I am always looking for fun ways to spice up a lunchbox. I love a lot of these suggestions, especially breakfast for lunch. It's not something that I really considered. These are easy to approach recipes.

Let’s Make Some Lunch is basically a foodies work of art! Gosh this book was beautiful and inspiring and I basically spent the whole time hungry haha. My lunches have never once been as beautiful as these ones and I hope to use some of the tips and tricks from the book to make my daughters prettier and have fun with it 🥰.

I enjoyed her review on the different kinds of lunch kits and might grab a new one for my munchkin, and I’ll probably invest in some fun shaped cutters. But some of the food I’m not convinced would be good cold or that my little girl would eat. Also my daughters not allowed a small list of items due to other kiddos allergies which I didn’t feel the book mentioned or accommodated at all. Apart from that it was a quick read and I’d recommend it to other moms/ parents who enjoying making meals beautiful!

I received a free ebook copy from NetGalley in exchange for a fair review.

This is a cute and enjoyable book that gives the reader great ideas for lunches and beyond!

I like all the photographs and mix-and-match nature of the offerings! There’s lots of choice and flexibility in creating a bento box and this book is a great way to get started. Super cute and a fun way to get creative in the kitchen for the whole family!

I'm excited to try some of these recipes and dishes for my husband's lunch. I've been wanting to get into the art of bento, and this book feels easy to follow and very inspiring. The pictures are bright and adorable, and the list of items you need is super helpful.

I love how much care and attention goes into a bento, and I'm super excited to have such a great guide, thank you!

I really loved this book. I feel like there are not enough cookbooks dedicated to lunch recipes. There were so many great recipes for delicious and healthy lunches. I love the creativity of the recipes. I found the recipes to be both diverse, unique, and easy to follow. I love how there was a difficulty rating for each so you know what to expect before you make the recipes. I thought the photos were colorful and whimsical. I also really enjoyed the lunch 101 section. I think this would be a great cookbook for almost anyone, and I would definitely recommend it.

I loved how versatile and easy the recipes are, alot of them look super cute and could definitely involve children in some of the prep as well!

This book has beautiful pictures and a wide variety of recipes. There are some featuring breakfast lunches and dinners while this is targeted towards being a packed lunch recipe book, There are many recipes that would require the items to stay warm. I don’t know how realistic all of these recipes would be however, there are some ideas that can springboard other ideas for someone that is bored with their lunch menus.

I was excited for this book because I am always looking for new, creative bento box ideas with two littles kids in school. The concept was nice, however, I was a bit disappointed in the recipes and the ingredients used. I try to use a bit healthier ingredients in cooking and maybe my kids are just picky but I don’t know how many recipes and ideas I would actually get out of this book. The pictures of the food looked great and it was nice to have an ‘around the world’ chapter.

Special thanks to the author, publisher and Netgalley for sharing this with me in exchange of my honest review.

This is a super cute cookbook with sooo many lunch ideas! I loved that there were so many different skill levels included. I have been looking for new lunch ideas to take to work, and this is perfect! (even if the author probably had kiddo lunches in mind)

Thanks to NetGalley, Sulhee Jessica Woo, and DK for the chance to read and review! I can't wait to try out these recipes! My thoughts and opinions are my own!

This was a super fun cookbook to look through! My son is starting kindergarten this year and I’m so excited to start making him fun, healthy lunches. I loved the different recipes and use of the bento box. The photos are bright and colorful and super engaging! I’m looking forward to putting many of these recipes to use soon!
