Kids Lunchbox Ideas: Freezer-Friendly Empanadas

For families looking to break up the sandwich routine, frozen empanadas can be a practical lunchbox option: bake them at home, cool them properly, and pack them alongside the rest of a balanced lunch.

A simple freezer routine

Argentum empanadas bake from frozen at 190°C for 18 to 22 minutes. Every empanada is blast-frozen and keeps for up to six months at -18°C, making it easy to keep a meal option on hand for busy weeks.

How to pack them

  • Bake from frozen, then let the empanadas cool before packing.
  • Use an insulated lunchbox and follow your school’s food-safety guidance.
  • Pair with fruit, vegetables or another side appropriate for your child.
  • Check your school’s allergy policy and the product ingredients before packing any food.

Choosing flavours

Different families will have different favourites. Argentum’s current range includes beef, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, so a mixed order can help you find what suits your household.

Product pages contain the most current ingredient information. Empanadas contain wheat pastry and are not gluten-free.
