What's for lunch.

Lunch meat and cheese rollups, I stick a plastic stick through them and slice into 1" pieces. Accompanying the roll ups we have strawberries and a cutie orange. She also had goldfish and a graham crackers with nutella. I think she also had a yogurt and milk that day.

Peanut butter and honey star sandwich, strawberries,cucumbers, pears and baby carrots. The little container has salad dressing to dip the veggies in.



This was Anthony's school lunch one day, he has a really early lunch so it's more of a snack and he usually eats again at home later. Flower shaped PB&J, cucumbers, strawberries and pears.



Goldfish, a butterfly peanut butter and honey sandwich (it wouldn't fit as a whole butterfly so it's folded in half. My lunches are definitely not super elaborate. I don't have time.) a cutie orange and some cucumbers. The yellow container had a few m&m's in it.

What I ate Wednesday (#2)

I'm actually doing this two weeks in a row. Yay me. My food this week isn't very exciting. I've got a cold and can't really taste anything. And I have a fridge full of leftovers, so that's what I'm eating.


As is still typical for me, my eyes were bigger than my tummy. I ate the cranberry sauce and turkey and the deviled egg, and only had room for one bite of stuffing. It was a good bite though! :-)



More turkey. I told ya it was an exciting day didn't I? So turkey, green beans, and a bite or two of potatoes.



Dinner was two little Babybel cheeses and a cup of tea 30 minutes later. (I can't eat and drink at the same time because of the surgery. Fun huh?)




So, did you play What I ate Wednesday this week? Leave me a comment if you did, I'd love to come visit your blog. :-)

What I Ate Wednesday

I found a fun linkup on Jen's blog, that I thought I'd try out this week. A few people have asked me lately what exactly I can eat. Here's a day of food for me, in pictures.


Gotta start the day with a cup of Good Earth Chai tea.



.
Laughing cow light cheese gets spread on the peeled cucumbers. Then the turkey and cheese gets rolled up.



Can you tell how itty bitty my plates are? They're the size of a saucer for a tea cup. This is salsa chicken with black beans and a little reduced fat cheese on top.







Teriyaki chicken with stir-fry veggies.






Snack is three mozzarella balls from Trader Joe's. One of my favorite snacks.

Wednesday, what's for lunch?

It's still the beginning of the school year, and I'm already bored with packing school lunches. My kid can be kind of a picky eater, and I also try to send more home made type stuff and less of the prepackaged stuff. Here's a typical lunch for Amelia.

String cheese, nutrigrain bar, cucumbers, applesauce, a peach and some milk. Speaking of the milk, I found her drink bottles at some random place, RiteAid maybe, and I love them. They have a little frozen tube that goes in the bottle, so her drink stays cool even when it's 110 outside. Sometimes she has celery instead of cucumbers, and most of the time she has a PB&J on whole wheat. Although lately, we've been told no PB products, so now it's Sunbutter and Jelly. I think it's nasty, but she says it's good. Anyway, I'm running out of lunch ideas, what are your kids eating for lunch?



Oh and did I mention that when we pack Amelia's lunch each morning,we also have to pack one for Anthony? Even though it just goes in the fridge until lunch time. :-)
