End of the school year!

Wow it has been crazy with all the end of year activities going on.  I have been so busy that I manage to get a pic of snack but don't manage to get back to it for lunch or to post.  I won't bore you with the pics...how many pics of fruit can you look at really??  LOL

This week is the last week of school for both my kids so once we get settled into our summer routine I'll get back to posting regularly!

Day 103

For snack today D has granola balls and blueberries.  We made the granola balls a little different this time.  I used sunbutter which is a bit more runny than peanutbutter or soy butter.  So to compensate for that I added a tablespoon of chia seeds and 1/3 cup wheat germ.

D is having a friend over for lunch today so we are sticking with tried and true.  Pb & J, grapes and blueberries.

Days 99 & 100

Snack is sugar free chocolate pudding.
D had grapes and grilled cheese for lunch.

DAY 100!!!!  YAY!!  I can hardly believe it!

D had a field trip to meet our community helpers (Fire Station, Police Station and Highway Department) today so she did not need to bring a snack.


For lunch the girls have pocket sandwiches.  Salami for D and seafood salad for A.  They both have strawberries and cherries with some sugar free cool whip to dip them.

Day 98

D had no school today so no snack.  For lunch today the girls had pork wontons with sweet and sour dipping sauce.  A had cantelope and D had apples.  I made the wontons using this method.  I used 1 lb. ground pork, 2 green onions finely minced, maybe 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp minced ginger and 1 Tbs soy sauce for the filling.  I used a measuring teaspoon to measure out the filling.  I made them yesterday so after I boiled them I drained them well and layered them in wax paper to keep in the fridge.  Today I just heated a little oil in a pan and lightly pan fried them to warm them through.

Day 97

D has granola balls for snack again today.  I made them a little different this time.  I replaced some of the chocolate chips with butterscotch chips and I pulsed them in the food processor for a few seconds to chop them up really good. D really really loved them.

Lunch today is ham, salami and alfalfa sprout roll ups, grapes, cherries and fresh mozarella balls.
