First Day of School 2013

Yesterday was breakfast for lunch day for D.  She has mini waffles, blueberry chicken breakfast sausage, cocoa roasted almonds, some maple syrup, grapes and strawberries.


I have my old standby mixed greens with roasted chicken, beans and cheese.  The small container has my crushed red peppers and I also have some raspberries and chocolate chips.


For the first day of school I asked D what she wanted...I was thinking she'd want a character lunch or something fun.  No, she asked for homemade chicken nuggets...I make "naked" nuggets.  I use 1 lb of ground chicken, 1/4 cup coconut flour (you could use bread crumbs and an egg instead) salt, pepper and some poultry seasoning.  I also used my micro plane to grate some onion into the mixture.  I mix it all up and press it into a 8x8 pan and bake it at 350 until it's done.  I let it cool completely then cut it into cubes or use my small fondant cutters to cut them into shapes. (The scraps go nicely into a salad).  I always take a little pinch off the mixture and cook it in a frying pan before baking so I can taste it and adjust the seasoning.  She also has grapes, bbq sauce, crackers, tomato and fresh mozzarella salad, strawberry roasted almonds and a Hello Kitty marshmallow.

I have another salad but instead of shredded cheddar cheese I have Cabot Hot Buffalo Wing Cheddar.  I also have grapes and strawberry roasted almonds.
