Lunches for this Monday include my take on something we tried on our vacation in the UK - Coronation Chicken! Basically, it's a curry chicken salad with golden raisins.

I made a version of this recipe - we had it for dinner the other night, and everyone loved it.  I hope to write up my version of the recipe soon!

Lunches: 9.20.17

We got back from vacation on Saturday, and I have been packing lunches, but today is the first time when I have had a chance to blog - I think I am still working on some jetlag.

The trip was amazing, and I hope to blog about it soon.  The food in the UK has a bad reputation, but we found it mostly delightful!

We are leaving for a vacation tomorrow (more on that, I hope, while we are gone!) - so the food is low in the house on purpose...

Using things in the fridge up is a fun way to pack lunches...

Egg: 0g, apple slices: 10g, yogurt: 9g, muffins: 16g (4 g each).  Snack: 28g

The Boy has Breakfast for lunch again.  He has apple slices, a hard boiled egg, yogurt, and muffins - and a cereal bar for snack.

The Girl wanted more than a hard boiled egg, so I made her a quick egg salad sandwich on homemade bread, apple slices, and Inner Peas.  She also has an audition after school for the school play, so I included a snack of a cereal bar for her, too.

Operation Clean Out the Fridge is fun...

Lunches: 9.6.17

I made a fresh loaf of bread last night from this King Arthur Flour recipe (baked it in my oven, not bread machine, replaced some all-purpose flour with white whole wheat), so we have nice sandwiches for lunches today.

The Boy has a ham and cheese sandwich with hummus, along with apple slices, and Inner Peas.  His snack is a cereal bar.

The Girl has a ham and cheese sandwich with mayo, along with apple slices, and Inner Peas.

Breakfast for lunches again today - turns out, The Boy has lunch at 10:20 in the morning - so he likes to have something breakfasty for it sometimes.  That's a mighty early lunch, if you ask me... (says the girl who works sometimes from 6-2 and eats lunch at 9 AM... and I have full on lunch, lol)

Anyhow...

Egg: 0g, apple slices: 10g, Bubble & Squeak: 5g, yogurt: 9g, muffins: 12g (4g each), and snack: 28g

The Boy has a hard boiled egg, apple slices, my version of a Bubble & Squeak patty (look for the recipe in an upcoming KidsVT!  Essentially, a veggie and bacon patty), muffins, and a yogurt.  He also has a cereal bar for snack.
