As the school year gets under way, I have already fallen
into a lunch rut. My youngest daughter, who is now 15, so no longer content
with her daily peanut butter sandwich, and being vegetarian further limits our
options.
So Weelicious Lunches is a timely addition. Catherine
McCord, founder of weelicous.com has put
together over 160 lunches and is truly thinking outside the box.
She even improved on the classic PB &J.
This sandwich can’t be taken to school, alas, but it can be
savored by hungry adult peanut butter fiends. You simply make the sandwich –
she recommends natural peanut butter – and finish it in a waffle iron. It gets
crunchy and melted and is truly inspired.
Another great recipe is for veggie meatballs, made from
white beans. The recipe makes a ton, so you can have pasta with ‘meatballs’ and
use extra meatballs for a veggie hero.
And even if your kid is in a (veggie) salami and cheese,
phase, there are other great choices. Fiber-rich (and peanut-free) sunflower
bran muffins and healthy (!) double chocolate whole wheat brownies?
Yes, please.
