Warm or Chilly - We're Ready

This Week's Bento Lunch

 
Packing on the go meals can be with the unpredictable weather during seasonal changes. Our solution - soup and salad! Our containers are microwave safe, so we're able to heat our soup up if it's chilly or enjoy it cold if the sun is warm and shiny.

The Perfect Pilaf

This week's menu

Depending on where you're from or what your food preferences are, your idea of the perfect pilaf may be very different. For us, it's chopped up veggies, dried fruit, and nuts. Yum! We enjoyed our rice pilaf with a side of roasted golden beets, pears and some cheese puffs for a fun little cheat.

Menu

* Sliced Pears
* Vegetable Roll-ups
* Carrot Chips
* Cashews


Preparation Notes

This lunch is light and delicious, and comes together quickly. Be sure to make the roll-ups in the morning so they're not soggy by lunchtime.

Slice the pears.

Prepare the roll-ups. Lay a sheet of whole wheat lavash on the counter. Spread mashed avocado across the surface. Layer on top of that: baby spinach leaves, shredded carrots, shredded cucumbers, and chopped scallions. (A whole wheat tortilla can also be used.) Sprinkle with a few drops of balsamic vinegar, roll it up, and slice it into manageable pieces. Feel free to experiement with other vegetables you have on hand.

Add the carrot chips.

Add the cashews, (purchased from the bulk bin dept.)
