I was fortunate enough to try out the new Ingham’s chicken range and it is delicious. We tried out the ciabatta-crumbed chicken nuggets and they are so tasty! The whole family was impressed with the quality of these nuggets and the ciabatta infused coating was a nice difference to the normal boring crumbs. From the fussy kids to my fussy dad who doesn’t normally like meat he doesn’t prepare himself, everyone was satisfied with these!

I made this into a pasta bake and the kids absolutely loved it as did hubby! They are yummy and something that can easily become dinner or lunch. To make the pasta bake I just cooked up 250g pasta, added half a jar of Woolies chunky pasta sauce and grated cheese through, then put nuggets on top with the rest of the sauce and more cheese. In the oven for about 35-40 minutes (tried 25 minutes but nuggets weren’t cooked). Yummy as!

I took advantage of the Ingham’s freezer range on special at Woolies last week and purchased the nuggets for the kids and the Kiev’s for us adults.
We are usual buyers of Kiev’s from the butcher but the Ingham Kiev’s have a better flavour crumb that says crunchy. Both my husband and I enjoyed them. The only downside is like all Kiev’s the garlic butter usually leaks out, but it is still very flavoursome.
The kids enjoyed their nuggets, even the fussiest (who did ask me what it was before she would eat it like normal ????. I like how they are made with breast meat and they have a flavoursome crumb on them. I cooked them for a little longer to get a bit more crunch to them.
All up they cooked up well. I oven baked them with some potatoes for a change from chips. I serve them with some steamed veggies for a more healthier meal. I will highly consider purchasing these in the future.

we got to review the chicken nuggets. Great price. bright and colorful box. When I opened the box i was surprised at how big the chicken nuggets were, they were huge. They didn’t take long to cook, and they taste delicious. A great amount of chicken in each nugget. My son who loves nuggets and is a fussy eater ate some and said they were good.

The chicken nuggets were made from nice quality chicken breast with no “yucky” bits. The chicken had a nice fresh flavour and not greasy or processed. The crumb was very crunchy.
They were easy to prepare, I just put them in my air fryer, they were cooked in about 10 minutes.
All my family really loved them, I’ll definitely be buying these again!

I’m impressed! I normally feel guilty about giving the kids nuggets and veggies for dinner. With these Free range and nasty free nuggets I don’t feel bad at all. They are surprisingly big and juicy too.
All the kids loved them although they are pretty expensive (you get what you pay for) so I’ll stock up during sales.

My three kids absolutely loved and devoured the box of inghams free range nuggets. I was lucky enough to get one to try! They were so easy to cook just chucked them in the oven and served them with steamed peas and corn. Such a quick throw together meal on a busy night. Will purchase them again!

The Ingham’s free Range chicken nuggets were amazing. First thought when I opened the box was how large the actual nuggets were. After a quick cook in the oven the smell was making my mouth water! They tasted fantastic and were perfect for a quick and convenient Fathers Day mid afternoon snack between a big brunch and roast dinner. Definitely will be a regular in my shopping trolley.

I am reviewing Inghams Free Range Chicken Breast Sourdough Garlic Butter Kievs. Firstly I was not a fan of the coating but in saying this I really am not a fan of sourdough bread full stop. I much preferred the coating (Wholemeal & Quinoa) on the tenders and would much prefer that coating on the kievs. Secondly for such a premium product I really would have preferred Inghams to have cut and taken the bone out of the kiev as it is such a waste and we are paying for it. But the chicken was lovely and tender and the garlic butter delicious. Like my review on the tenders once again I would love to know why these kievs are not all Australian. They are actually a little more worse then the tenders with 80% Australian Ingredients …so what is the other 20%. I also compared my usual Inghams Kiev’s with these new Free Range and our usual ones have 467mg of Sodium compared to 380mg (per 100g) in these Free Range ones so that’s a plus. The Fat was 14.1g per 100g compared to 10.6g for the Free Range so that’s a good plus. But I was disappointed in the sugar 3.8g for our usual compared to 4.6g in the new free range so that’s bad . The actual sugar did surprise me as I would have assumed the sourdough free range to be better as far as sugar is concerned but it was not the case, maybe due to the fact of the crumb being a little more tart and they need extra sugar to counter out. Either way I was a touch disappointed in the sugar area. Will I purchase again well if on a good special probably yes.

The Inghams Free Range Chicken Tenderloins with Wholemeal and Quinoa coating where quite nice. The fact that the coating was wholemeal and quinoa was the overall reason for trying this product. As both of these are a lot more nutritious than most other coatings. I do love the versatility of tenders as one can simply serve with chips as a quick meal, or with mash and veggies as a larger meal and then there is the option of having the tenders on a fresh bread roll with salad which is often the case in this family for a delicious lunch time meal on a weekend.
I am very interested to know what the other 15% of ingredients are that were not Australian as the label states Australian made from a least 85% Australian ingredients. Over all though these were very nice but for the price normally you do expect a premium product. Will only purchase when on special and find my usual Inghams tenders just fine thanks.

Initially I tried the nuggets and they were amazing. You can taste the real chicken, and so quick and easy to make. Almost felt like I had crumbed them myself. Also tried the sweet chilli strips, and they were even better! So juicy and full of flavour

I bought the chicken nuggets and tenders when they first came out and was Surprised at how nice they were. They were crunchy and full of flavour. The nuggets were slightly bigger than normal so I did have to cut them up for my daughter but she still devoured them. Hubby even commented how nice the tenders were. Will be buying again!

Even my husband and I like the taste of this range, the coating really tastes like it has lits of herbs and flabour and the meat inside is really tender. We definitely recommend this range.

Firstly I would like to congratulate Ingham on this range it is really a quality product and fills a gap in these sort of products.
The products were easy to find in the frozen section at Woolworths, the packaging is different and stands out . It has great colours, and displays the product really well . The instructions on the package were clear and easy to follow. The nuggets cooked to a delicious golden colour and had perfect crunch . I could really taste the difference with this product
And tell that is was a high quality chicken and it tasted juicy and great compared to other products which can be pasty and horrible . Definitely recommend this to my friends family and everyone. Thanks for the opportunity to try this product.

They tasted ok.
As good as to be expected from pre-prepared/ frozen food.
Easy to prepare, and cook for.
Where Inghams fall short in; they don’t cater for those with Coeliac disease. (gluten free)
My son (9yo) has coeliac disease (FULLY DIAGNOSED) and yeah….
Actually I won’t go on the rant I WAS going to go on. I will just say this…….
I’m sick to death of paying ‘hipster tax’ on gluten free products.
For a child that has NO choice on the cards he’s been dealt. He handles it soooo smoothly. But he shouldn’t have to. There should be options for him.
All in all; not a bad thing to eat but also not GREAT.

Wait for the chicken to cook. Assemble the wraps. Wallah dinner done. The kids gobbled these down in no time. The loved them and asked me to buy them again. Winning all around.

How to choose the best lunch box for school
When you’re searching for a kids’ lunch box, take the time to work out what will best suit their needs. If you make the right choice and invest in a quality one, it will last many years.
Box, bento or bag? If your child doesn’t like different foods touching, a bento lunch box is a great choice. Also, think about whether they prefer cut-up or whole fruit; a bento is better suited to cut food, while bags and boxes suit whole fruit. Bags are fantastic if you like to pack separate containers, like smaller bento or snack containers.
Freshness is a must – An insulated bag or box will keep everything cool and fresh until snack and lunchtime. But you can also get boxes that come with cold and ice packs. Remember, kids’ lunches often sit at room temperature for up to 5 or 6 hours before they’re eaten, so insulation and coolness are important. Check out how to keep school lunches safe in the heat.
Easy-to-clean design – Check if the box is dishwasher-safe, or for lunch bags, if they’re machine-washable.
Leak-proof – The last thing you want is a soggy mess at lunchtime, so if buying a hard lunch box, look for designs that are leak-proof with proper seals.
Child-friendly – Depending on your child’s motor skills and independence, you may need to start with a product that’s simple to open and close.
The right size – We tend to pack way too much in our kids’ lunches, so think about how much realistically you’ll need to pack for your child when choosing the size of their lunch box. You may also need to consider the size of their school bags.

These award-winning lunch bags have sold over 200,000 units – and it’s clear to see why. The interior of each large bag measures 29cm x 23.5cm x 7.5cm, making them big enough to fit multiple containers and even many popular bento boxes. Each bag comes with an ice pack for up to eight hours of cooling – and you have a massive range of designs to choose from.

Interior name label
Fabulous large size fits everything!

“A vote for montii co lunch boxes, lunch bags and freezer bricks (they really do stay frozen all day!!” (Megan)
“Montii lunch bags are the best and the freezer brick can stay frozen for ages I forgot one day and it was still cold after 24hrs”(Sarah)
Tired of apples not fitting in hard lunch boxes? b.box has solved this with its flexible ‘whole fruit holder’ that bends around the fruit rather than squashing it – genius! If you’re not keen on cutting up a fruit salad every day, this multi-compartment two-litre lunch box has handy homes for everything. It also comes with a gel cooler pack (a must for Aussie summer!), and it’s freezer-safe. Choose from a range of colours.

Pros:
Leak-resistant design for mess-free travel
Comes with two microwave-safe removable containers
Customisable with your choice of bumper, ice brick and monogramming (at an additional cost)
With the option of four, five or six compartments, it’s easy to see why Yumbox Bento Lunch Boxes are such a hit with Australian kids. They feature handy, pre-measured half-cup serving compartments to help pack a healthy lunch and contain absolutely no BPA or phthalates. Pop it straight into the dishwasher on the top rack for easy cleaning.
Pros:
Top rack dishwasher-safe
Includes five half-cup sections for portion control
Sections are labelled to help parents with a balanced lunch
If your little (or not-so-little) one wants a lunch bag everyone will comment on, this is it. Available in a range of stunning designs, they come with a long and strong handle and easy-use zippers. But good looks aside, what’s winning heart about these is their capacity – they hold up to seven litres of food!
After something a bit more mature? Bentgo’s Modern lunch boxes are a great option. They have a sleek matte finish in a choice of four stylish shades, including Mint Green, Orchid, Dark Grey and Navy. Each is cleverly designed with a removable divider that allows you to choose between using three or four compartments. Even better, they are leak-proof, microwave-safe and fine to pop in the dishwasher.
Colourful and easy to carry, these bags are insulated, eco-friendly and secure. It features aluminium foil lining that keeps food fresh all day long, and it comes with top-level carry handles and a shoulder strap, which is brilliant for those days when kids have a lot to tote. Choose from a range of styles.
Pros:
Roomy and stylish
Shoulder strap makes carrying easy (and great if schoolbags are too full!)
Zip-front pocket handy for cold packs or notes from mum
Large enough for the hungriest of school kids, this stainless steel wonder has a removable silicone seal in the lid to stop thick liquids from leaking. No more soggy anything!

Finally, a kids’ lunch box that stores hot AND cold food in one place! Designed out of necessity by a problem-solving mum, the OmieBox encourages low-waste lunches and ends the need to use multiple clunky containers (which always get lost!). The spill-proof individual compartments mean no mixing of savoury and sweet, and the 280ml double-wall thermos keeps soups and pasta hot for up to six hours!
Health professionals agree that kids need a good balance of lean protein, grains, fruit and vegetables throughout the school day. Skip the processed food and try to reach for whole foods that pack a punch in the nutrient department. Here are some great ideas:
Grilled chicken or turkey wraps with fresh salad
Crackers and vegetable sticks with healthy dips like hummus
Whole-grain pasta with cherry tomatoes and your choice of cheese
Zucchini slice cut into rectangles for easy stacking in an insulated box
Getting ready for the return to school has started to kick in so this was a timely read. We have the yum box and i love it, it is so easy for my daughter to open and close on her own. I find the lunch cooler bags also a great idea however some days depending on what else needs to go to school, they can be quite bulky to include in the school bag. I need to do some more research this year as i like the idea of being able to watch it in the washing machine, that is a clever idea.
Along with all of the other back to school products; there is also a good range of lunch boxes available for people to buy. It has been fun to see the wide range of bottles and lunch boxes that are available for the new year for school and for work.
Lunch boxes have come such a long way since my eldest was a kid, he’s now 26! There’s really a solution to everything from food heating, cooling, dividers, pockets etc etc. Lunch boxes are a real fashion accessory and so on-trend these days. I personally love the Bento lunch boxes. They save on plastic and separate different foods.
I am such a huge fan of Bento lunch boxes and Bento. Food should be so many wonderful things; including delicious, fun, colourful and nutritious too. Lunch is a favourite meal because the body is ready for some more calories and a boost of energy. Food looks so good in Bento lunch boxes.
So so many fantastic options! We use the montii co ones for our kdis and swear by it. Its lasted 3 years so far and still standing strong, like new since the first day using it. They are so durable and i find cleaning them to be the easiest for us.
There are so many great lunch box option out there indeed ! I’ve always liked the Bento style lunch boxes for my kids. It reduces the use of plastic lunch bags and packaged food which aren’t very good for the environment and it encourages to present a good variety of foods (which is not only better nutrition wise but lao to prevent our kids from getting bored with same foods all the time.
There are some really fabulous options here. So many variations of colour, shape and size. I love the bento style lunch boxes, so handy to keep food separate and eliminate the use of plastic packaging. The machine washable bags are a great idea too. They can get grubby so fast, this would be so much easier to maintain
This has gotten much easier since my kids hit high school – they have strong opinions about their lunch boxes, so I don’t have to think about it so much anymore! However, I am strongly in favor of bento style boxes regardless of their age. They’re easy to clean, easy to pack, and invite appropriate sized portions.
Great article! Our kids are so lucky, when it comes to lunchboxes, they really are spoilt for choice. There are so many to pick from. Regarding sandwiches, my eldest son, used to hate sandwiches for school lunches. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered that he’d throw out his sandwiches in the playground bins. My son’s an adult now and he still hates sandwiches. He only likes “hot” lunches. So glad he lives on his own now and can make his own “hot” lunches just the way he likes them.
This is an extremely useful article!! 2 schppl going kids and third starting kinder soon means we are always on the lookout for lunch ideas and lunch boxes. This is a great list with features and prices listed to make the search easier and help with decision making for purchasing of the lunch boxes
This is super useful article and thank you. I can see so variety of lunch boxes from every store. Always wonder which one would be more convenient to use by little hands. I love some of these lunchboxes to give it a try for this year. And then decide to go with suitable ones
Wow, lunch boxes have really come such a long way from when I was taking a lunch box to school. Feel old, like “back in my day”, but we were lucky to have options like are available now. While I like some of these designs, I feel like they aren’t super practical.
These lunchboxes are beautiful but are they really worth the expensive price tag? I have been through so many lunch boxes and bags over the years and found the best it to use an insulated lunchbox bag with ice brick and use small containers to keep individual items fresh and assessable.
I love the bbox lunch boxes. They are so reliable and tough when kids throw their bags around. Easy to wash and store. I have used the we can be tiny snackies at home too. The boys love choosing a certain animal shape. They wash well, are durable and great quality.
My kids are old enough now to pack their own lunches and I am so happy to see the great choices they are making. They take left over meals, cook food in the morning to take and now I am confident they aren’t throwing away sandwiches! I do have the chilly bags for them, I find they fit better into bags
My daughter uses a bento box now for work and sometimes an insulated bag in summer, but when she was at school it was a rectangular lunch box with no compartments. It was very easy to wash each day, just the box and lid, and it could still be filled with rolls/sandwiches and snacks.
Lunchboxes are so important these days. Back in my day it was a brown paper bag or the exact same lunch box that everyone else had and there were three compartments. Today its such a fashion statement and as much as the lunchbox itself is judged so are the contents.
I absolutely love the bb box quite sturdy. It took many lunch box to find one that would last. Before this lunch box we had a stuck on you. I found the stuck on you lunch box didn’t last when the hinge’s snapped they wouldn’t get back to me (only had for a short time and my youngest couldn’t open it so it wasn’t dropped. Just opened it after the 8th time and snapped). The bb box has lasted the last year and a half and still going strong
What a great help for busy Mommas like us. From the style to comfort and convenience, this article really put the best for our kids. Not to mention the added info about safety on what these lunchboxes were made of! I am also impressed about the organisation function of each, it seems small but woooh could put so much…thanks for sharing this article
