Here's the latest... It's getting easier to pack lunch every day, and it's only Day 3. Mostly because I spent an embarrassing number of hours on Saturday developing and completing a spreadsheet for the week's meals and groceries. Before you judge, you should know I have switched the meals around in several ways since I wrote it, so I may not be as rigid as you think. Ok, now go ahead and judge all you want.
Top Left: Cucumber, tomato, celery, and basil salad with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and a little swiss cheese.
Top Right: Tuna salad with celery, sweet pickle relish, hard boiled egg, canola oil mayo, mustard, and CHIVES! (Just thought of adding chives because they were leftovers in the fridge from a recipe, and they are deeelicious in this!)
Bottom Right: tangerine and grapes
Bottom Left: dried apricots, prunes, peanut butter, and a Ghirardelli Dark and Sea Salt Caramel Squares.
I'm also including a whole wheat pita on top in the box.

So much for the Hors d'oevure now where's lunch!
ReplyDeleteJust kidding! Actually it looks very yummy and healthy!
Saimi, I know. But you'd be surprised how satisfying it is, and how much food it is! Actually, a big concern when I pack lunches like this is that I may not be able to finish chewing all those fruits and veggies in the 20 minutes that I end up getting to eat during my lunch time at school. And, I'm enjoying it much more than I expected.
ReplyDeleteSounds to healthy, BOL

That looks so yummy. I really need to start doing this.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great system. I have chives just outside the kitchen door, and we use TONS of them in tuna salad. It's just the best addition ever.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you're sticking with your plan. Good job!
