We all watched Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution and began talking about their lunches. I was/am appalled! I googled healthier options and stumbled upon the world of bento boxes! We are excited. The boxes won't be here until Tuesday but we stocked up on pretzels, strawberries, cherry tomatoes, mini bagels, veggies, hummus, pitas and cheeses for next week. I just broke my knee so this will work well for me while I am home too! Pack my lunch and keep it close during the day! Thanks for the site!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11404755346461778382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3791660092154568206.post-90486119748137982082010-04-29T21:34:07.426-07:002010-04-29T21:34:07.426-07:00Thanks Laura!

His all time favorite is grilled salmon, brown rice and veggies. The children would make fun of him for eating vegetables when the school year started.

His class room has a microwave, so he is able to warm his lunch before he heads out to the lunch room. It's so funny the kids in his class always want to know what he's having and if he will share! Now my favorite lunch as a child was when my grandmother Antonia would bring my lunch. It was homemade tortillas with a carne asada, frijoles y arroz with fresh salsa! It was incredible!!Diana's Cocinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02569906227554795220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3791660092154568206.post-51309265654994221152010-04-23T21:31:10.391-07:002010-04-23T21:31:10.391-07:00My Mom only packed nutritious food, aka "unco...My Mom only packed nutritious food, aka "uncool food," in my lunches so I switched to hot lunches as soon as I could to escape the scorn of my peers. I loved the horrendous hoagie sandwiches (with bologna & cheese) and burritos topped with chili and cheese. The only thing that I thought my Mom made better was spaghetti--the cafeteria spaghetti was horrible and I remember the teachers eyeing my spaghetti when I brought Mom's and one commented on how good it looked. I thought she was weird until I tried the lunch room spaghetti.Veronicahttp://reciperhapsody.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3791660092154568206.post-43326918529375548282010-04-23T21:11:46.097-07:002010-04-23T21:11:46.097-07:00My little Leah is in 2nd grade!

(it's not my best hour of the day). <br /><br />As a kid I ALWAYS had a PB&J,which would be the first thing in the trash, an apple, pretzles and a little debbie oatmeal cream pie. <br /><br />To this day, I can not eat PB&J, or any fruit/nut flavor combo. But I do still hold a place in my heart for the oatmeal cream pies.softhefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05446070627486779629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3791660092154568206.post-61351181456516789152010-04-23T19:55:16.090-07:002010-04-23T19:55:16.090-07:00Sadly I only got sandwiches for school lunches, bu...Sadly I only got sandwiches for school lunches, but there was always some goodies in my box too!

I don't have biological children, and I live alone, but I still will be looking forward to these posts. <br /><br /><br />For lunch, I had to look forward to whatever was offered at my cafeteria because my mom didn't cook and my dad wasn't around.

Usually romaine with a little cheese, shredded carrots, broccoli, and some type of meat. This week it was prosciutto (because it was on sale and is a favorite of mine). She prefers vinaigrette dressing and this week it was strawberry vinaigrette.<br />This was served with kiwi on side and 1 gluten free chocolate chip cookie.

I'm drawing a complete blank except for the story my dad always told us about his lunch which is unbelieveable-- but I know it is true. They lived in a very small Idaho community where the growing season was short. One of the crops that grew well was onions. He often had an entire onion for lunch. Just an onion. It was his good luck to have a twin brother or he might not have had any friends . . .Cristiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06932625827095972220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3791660092154568206.post-39065387818121005042010-04-23T11:51:29.348-07:002010-04-23T11:51:29.348-07:00When I brought a lunch from home it usually wasn&#...When I brought a lunch from home it usually wasn't very exciting. I had the normal sandwich, chips and fruit. <br /><br />I really liked some of the school lunches though. My favorite was the burritos.
