As Quinn switched from going to school 3 days a week to 5 days a week we decided to save money by making Quinn’s lunch. I’ve been making them in the morning before school, but I’ve been feeling like I was stuck in a rut. Always making the 5 things I knew Quinn would actually eat. Then Allison pointed out Jennifer McCann’s blog for Vegan Lunchboxes.
No I’m not a Vegan and I have no desire to go that rout (I love me a roast beef sandwich), but Quinn has never been much of a meat eater and she had some really good ideas. I picked up the book and stared making some of her recipys. The cool thing is that they’re really easy to make. I made the banana cookies the other week and they tasted great (give it a try, it’s all done with a blender and it’s fast). Last night I made PB&J Calzones using pie crust.
Anyhoo, I’m having a good time making Quinn’s lunches again.
