Daycare moms- need lunch ideas!

I feel like I give Kieran the same stuff over and over again and I want to give this boy a little more variety! What do you send for lunch with your toddlers? Kieran is 18 months. He usually has some kind of sandwich- grilled cheese, turkey and cheese, ham and swiss, hummus- and always a yogurt or applesauce or cut up fruit. We usually go out to dinner about once a week or so, and when we do, I send in his leftovers for lunch the next day. Anyone have suggestions? TIA!

DD is 17 months, i usually send her with a sandwich also (on goldfish bread- which is so cute!), but i will also send her in with macaroni and cheese- i cut broccoli up and put that in it as well, or peas, i also buy the perdue baked chicken nuggets and will give that to her also. And any kind of leftovers from dinner the night before
I know, its hard to come up with new ideas!!
