Why use a lunch wheel

Sixteen lunch ideas are on the wheel, quick to make or easy to order. Spin once for today, or spin five times on Sunday and plan the week’s packed lunches.

  • Plan the week’s packed lunches

    Spin five times and hide each winner, so every school day gets a different lunch.

  • Decide what to order at work

    Spin once at noon instead of scrolling every menu.

  • Pick a weekend lunch to cook

    Families can spin and cook the lunch together.

This wheel wears the Slice Slice Baby theme: a hot pizza in a neon-lit, subway-tiled slice shop. Your own copy keeps it, or pick another wheel theme.
