Pack a healthful box lunch for school f

Though lots of parents take great pains to provide their children with nourishing meals at home, they don’t always give as much thought to what the youngsters eat when away from home. And unfortunately, the lunches that are dished up in public school cafeterias are quite often full of those very “demons” that you may be trying to eliminate from the family’s diet, such as white flour, sugar and other highly processed foods. Here, then, are a few recipes for nutritious carry-along edibles that were developed by our favorite health food chef, Deborah Dunn. The meals are all easy and fun to put together . . . which means that youngsters may even enjoy helping with the preparations! Probably the single most popular lunch box filler is the sandwich . . . and this simple noonday treat can be made far

more appetizing and nutritious than the plain old white-bread-and-bologna standard. To prepare a slightly sweet and energy-boosting sandwich, spread peanut butter on whole wheat bread and top it with banana slices, sunflower seeds and raisins, Or, as a variation, cover the protein-packed filling with grated carrot or cucumber slices, and then add alfalfa sprouts. Sprouts can also make a delicious and crunchy addition to cheese sandwiches: Just spread the bread with mayonnaise . . . add thinly sliced cheddar, swiss, or Monteray Jack cheese . .. and then pile on a thick layer of sprouts. Cheese sandwiches can benefit from the addition of raw vegetables, too. Butter your slices of bread (or use mayonnaise), and add the cheese, either sliced or grated, plus any one -

or all -of the following vegetables: sliced cucumber, avocado, tomato, grated carrot and diced onion. You can also create many scrumptious lunches by whipping up special fillings during the evening, and then making the sandwiches the next morning (and, again, slip in fresh sprouts to provide a nutritional bonus). Any time you have oatmeal bread on hand, try putting two pieces together with a tomato slice and a spread made of four ounces (half a large package) of cream cheese, one-quarter cup of chopped walnuts, and a chopped half-stalk of celery. The sweet taste of tahini spread (tahini, a thick paste made from sesame seeds, is usually available in health food stores) will please any child when it’s smoothed on dark bread: Just mix one cup of tahini with 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds, one-quarter teaspoon of honey, one-quarter teaspoon of salt, and one-half teaspoon of cinnamon. Os course, these sandwiches, as nutritious and filling as they are, don’t have to be the only main courses your children carry to school, because many leftover dinner dishes can be recycled for the next day’s lunch. A piece of cold quiche travels well, as do macaroni-and-cheese wedges. You might also like to prepare a bag of finger food such as cauliflower and broccoli florets, whole mushrooms, celery stalks and green pepper rings along with yogurt or sour cream dip. When packing snacks, throw in a small container of homemade popcorn to satisfy the munchies. Fresh fruit makes a delicious dessert, too, and it just may be sweet enough to help your child

avoid the urge to visit the candy machine! Toss together whole strawberries, blueberries, banana sections, melon cubes, and pineapple chucks . . . then turn that fresh fruit salad into a special treat by adding a cream cheese or carob-honey sauce. Whole wheat or bran muffins with nuggets of dried fruit inside are also great school lunch deserts. Remember, too, that take-alongs don’t have to be accompanied by plain milk, sugary fruit punch, or soda pop. You can, instead, fill your child’s thermos with a hot, hearty soup or bouillon ... or try a thick and tasty peanut butter shake that will provide enough protein to keep your youngster going all day! To make it, blend one-half cup each of milk and plain yogurt with one tablespoon of peanut butter and one teaspoon of honey. Finally, you can include a nice surprise in your child’s lunch box by making spiced apple juice. Soak a cinnamon stick in one cup of apple juice overnight, then remove the spicy stick before pouring the beverage into the thermos. (It’s even better warm!.) As you can see from the recipes provided here, box lunches don’t have to be either dreary and unappetizing or low in nutritional value. If you want to be certain your children are eating as well as school as they are at home, send the young scholars off each day with a lunch box full of homemade foods that you know you can trust.
