Day Two hundred and ninety-seven

My daughter's first gluten-free school lunch: Colby-jack cheese on gluten-free bread, hard-boiled eggs, sliced apple, green beans and red peppers. Fairly similar to a regular lunch, other than the bread. This is a fabulous Laptop Lunches bento box, and it makes packing school lunches a breeze.

Dinner: Homemade tomato soup (recipe: Double Delicious) with baby spinach, mini turkey meatballs, and mozzarella cheese. Did you know both canned tomato soup and many commercial meatballs contain wheat? They're worth making yourself. :)

Day One hundred and ninety-four

Picnic lunch at the park: French bread, sliced chicken, fresh mozzarella, cheddar cheese, strawberries, steamed carrots, sliced apple, and (missing from the picture) yesterday's whole wheat oatmeal raisin cookies.

Dinner: Turkey cheese burgers on whole grain sandwich thins, bruscetta, green beans, and cantaloupe.
