Unique, interesting lunches from our neighbors to the far east. No, you don't have to make Asian food; it's the concept of making cold, tastful food to go that's unique.<BR/><BR/>Me, i lived on a sandwich, a handful of chips, and a yogurt for 12 years of school.The Scrivener Colliderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16438984936360543473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27817243.post-32204888485859798432008-08-27T11:21:00.000-04:002008-08-27T11:21:00.000-04:00I have no answers.

He weighs 78 lbs and carries all of his weight in his tummy. He has to wear husky clothes!kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17987700142247888708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27817243.post-662604223975973062008-08-24T17:36:00.000-04:002008-08-24T17:36:00.000-04:00Baby spinach leaves instead of lettuce?I've been s...Baby spinach leaves instead of lettuce?<BR/><BR/>I've been sending my hubby to work with trail mix which helps to keep his hunger at bay. Instead of using nuts we make it up using seeds they are low GI and keep him going (my daughter is nut allergic so no nuts for anyone in this house).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27817243.post-52946010282800368152008-08-24T10:00:00.000-04:002008-08-24T10:00:00.000-04:00apples with honey on themCelery w pb and raisinsMe...apples with honey on them<BR/>Celery w pb and raisins<BR/>Merengues for special treats<BR/>Dehydrated fruit<BR/>Rice cake w honey<BR/>Gazpacho<BR/>Stir fried green beans<BR/>Grilled chicken strips w dipping sauce<BR/>Snap peas and low fat dressing<BR/>Lettuce cups with ground chicken<BR/>Low fat quesadillas<BR/>Broccoli raisin salad<BR/>Carrots with lf guacamole<BR/>Lf chili in thermos<BR/><BR/>I know it is hard but I know you can do it.

You might be able to sneak a little shredded lettuce in w/some grated cheese.<BR/><BR/>does he like hummus? you col do hummus and veggies for dipping.<BR/><BR/>beans? will he eat beans at all? maybe a small side of 3-bean salad or something w/fiber and protein.<BR/><BR/>what foods will he *always* eat? safe/preferred textures? use those as building blocks. you might have to start with some experiements at home then start sending them to school.<BR/><BR/>PBJ is a good staple to at least get him used to the idea of taking his own bfast/lunch. then you can expand on variety as you go.Niksmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14715465327343655483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27817243.post-38370750668588737252008-08-24T08:22:00.000-04:002008-08-24T08:22:00.000-04:00Beef jerky is good for protein and easy to pack.Beef jerky is good for protein and easy to pack.abfhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01228622726560993968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27817243.post-84841514151476945022008-08-24T07:41:00.000-04:002008-08-24T07:41:00.000-04:00I wish I could think of something but I can't.

Maybe banana chips...dang, I just went and looked and I've taken off the fat/calories info. <BR/><BR/>Anyhow, what I want to say is work on the eggs.

Does he eat warm soup? Would a thermos do the trick?<BR/><BR/>We've been trying to work around a nut-free school policy here, and that ups the degree of difficulty quite a bit.JoyMamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15073328328434957851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27817243.post-77160243078931662232008-08-24T06:17:00.000-04:002008-08-24T06:17:00.000-04:00What about hard boiled eggs?
