What's For (School) Lunch?

I missed out on yesterday's Opening Day, although I did read a few of your blogs while I was eating my breakfast this morning. I'm here now, and although I don't have anything too outrageous planned, I plan to embrace my participation as fully as possible. (And I will have two giveaways coming soon!)

This year, both of my boys are at home again for school, although they attend our homeschool co-op twice a week. On those days, they bring their lunches. My daughter will be attending preschool, thus bringing her lunch with her regularly. Therefore, most of my school lunch pics will belong to her.

One of the homeschool co-op days is Pizza Day, in which pizza is brought in to purchase. I have tried to make sure the boys have pizza in their lunches that day, as well, so they will not feel left out. This was my 6 year old son's lunch:

Tofurky Cheese Pizza (with hemp seeds sprinkled on top),

1/2 of a Hail Merry Chocolate Tart,

dried mango (from the bulk bin at WF), carrots

Since their preferred taste buds differ slightly, their lunches also vary slightly. The difference in my 11 year old's lunch:

Brazil nuts, Lemon Thyme Hail Merry Soaked/Dehydrated Pecans,

bell pepper slices, carrots,

Amande Cultured Almond Milk yogurt

And my 4 year old daughter got pizza that day, too, along with:

the other half of the Hail Merry Tart,

cherry tomatoes, bell pepper slices, Brazil nuts, Hazel nuts, dried mango

More 4 year old lunches:

3/4 sandwich with a Tofurky deli slice, hummus, lettuce, avocado, & mustard,

Garden of Eatin' Pico De Gallo Chips (love!), strawberries,

bell pepper, raisins

pistachios, soy yogurt with mini chocolate chips, Sun Butter & fruit spread sandwich,

carrots, berries

apple slices, cherry tomatoes,

Brazil nuts, a strawberry, a homemade chocolate chip cookie,

Rising Moon Organic Butternut Squash Ravioli

(with hemp seeds and a little olive oil)

Brothers-ALL-Natural freeze dried strawberries & bananas,

Cocoa Kissed Savi Seeds,

two "R" (her first and middle initials) nut butter & fruit spread sandwiches,

cherry tomatoes, pecans

Off to clean my kitchen, then cuddle into my bed to read as many VMF posts as I can tonight! Have a fun week, everyone!
