Guest guest Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 The first question is...do you prefer cold food or hot foods? I would suggest going over to amazon and looking for a book that is something " The Natural Lunchbox " or the " Vegetarian Lunchbox " and I apologize, it is one of the two. Laurel's kitchen has a nice section on lunches, but they are not all vegan to be sure. Go to vegweb.com and see what they have as well. You are after whole grain bread sandwiches with filling and tasty bean and tofu based pate', satisfying soups, interesting salads that travel (brown rice or whole grain pasta salads) and desserts with an energy boost to them. I have a wonderful brownie recipe that has no flour, but does have wheat germ. It is not vegan, or I would post it. (It calls for instant milk powder.) There are some snack bar recipes on vegweb.com. The first place to start is with some good reuseable lunch equipment, such as a good vacuum thermos and a steel lunchbox, the old fashioned kind, wide mouth, for hearty soups. Check out good old Tupperware for a lunchbox with washable plastics inside them. Don't forget a cloth napkin and stainless flatware. Much of packing a lunch is ambience...a set up where hot food is hot and cold is cold, where you have real, not plastic utensils and a bright cloth napkin makes the experience a nice meal, not something you brought from home out of necessity that is a poor substitute to eating out. I could say the same thing about eating at home, but you all know that. Dragonfly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
