What's a sandwich without a handful of something crispy by its side? A bowl of soup without that morsel of bread to sop up the last drops? Lunch just wouldn't be the same without a few sides to round out the meal.

This bunch of snacks are a boon to any lunchbox. They're all homemade, but most of them don't take much time or special effort. They're also easy on the waistline, so no worries about bringing a whole bag to munch on.
