Pasta and blueberry lunch

Devoured. Every scrap.

I love preparing leftovers for my kid's lunch. She loves the insulated bowl and the "hot food" from home. This month the school's normal two choices of hot lunch is reduced to one so it's lots of pizza, hot dogs and processed chicken products. The dairy factor knocks out many of them, and the alternate lunch is PB&J which she likes about once a week. She likes when the school serves tacos with lettuce and tomato, or chicken ranch wraps, or chicken salad, or even their garden salad (probably the days when a normal kid says "yuck.")

So, today I filled a bottle with some apple juice, a bowl with some frozen blueberries, and the thermal bowl with whole wheat rotini with broccoli and Morningstar breakfast patties (sausage) sautéed in olive oil, which Daddy prepared for me Sunday night.
