Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Hi everyone, well this week I have been called to jury duty. I found out that there are no microwaves available, so that meant I had to come up with lunches that didn't require heating. It's funny, but I didn't realize how much of my meals are hot meals! So this required some thinking and investigation. What I discovered that at my health food store they have vegetarian sandwiches that are fairly program friendly. I got a fake chicken salad sandwich that had some coverts in the mayo used but was otherwise fine. So I bought it and packed it in a bento along with cheese, almonds, apple sauce, cucumbers, ginger miso dressing, and a few kumquats (little citrus fruits that have a sweet peel and a tart fruit, you eat the whole thing!). It was a perfect lunch to bring along. I didn't end up eating the apple sauce, but truth be told I rarely want it, I seem to bring the same one back and forth over and over again in case the mood strikes me LOL. But I ate the rest of the food. Including the almonds and cheese as a snack since lunch turned out to be late yesterday. It was a great meal! I uploaded a picture of it in the photos section if you'd like to see. Today I brought an egg salad sandwich with an orange, cheese and almonds. No bento this time, but at least I am prepared!

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Hi Heather, I alway's do " Camping Food " , when at Jury Duty. Lot's of mixed nuts, triscuits, whole wheat bread, and some fruit. I've never been picked for a jury.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Camping food, what a great idea! What do you do for protein? Heather There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle.
