When my kid went to a school with no cafeteria, I would bake sausage
rolls and send those. I would make a dense yeasted bread dough with
about 1/3 to 1/2 whole wheat flour and I would sweeten it just a little
with some honey. Then I would fry Little Sizzler hot and spicy
sausages, and wrap a ball of dough around a cold sausage and bake them.
When they were baked, they were about the size and shape of a medium
russet potato. Sometimes I would put ham and cheese in the middle
instead of sausage.

I also sent sliced peeled apples, in season. (they stay fresh and white
for a long time if you dip the slices in a Campden tablet solution)

I don't really remember what else -- string cheese, peanut butter
cookies, cheese popcorn, snakpack pudding cups, little bags of potato
chips occasionally, bananas, homemade beef jerky, etc.

Best regards,
Bob
