Lunchbox Meme for 2009 is back!
Which means it is back to work for some of us and back to school for most of the children.
I am sure we’ve had enough of those meaty food during the holidays. Now is the time to make good on our promise to have healthier food choices, for ourselves, and our family members.
Grab the badge and join us here, just leave a link if you played.
The meme will be opened every Tuesday. Final round-up will be done for entries that will make it till Friday. So now there is no excuse to let this pass as you all have four days to take photos of what you have prepared in your lunchboxes.
Share your secret recipes so we can all learn something new.
Let’s bring a whole new meaning to the word LUNCHBOX

Maver’s Healthy Chopsuey

iMom’s Homemade Chicken Tocino (with a how-to)
Iska’s Bacon and Cheese Sandwich/Pandesal and Shrimp/Vegetable Salad
This is an easy recipe. I used to do it with whole chickens, but I realized my kids and husband would attack the thighs and leave the breast to me. Nobody wants the white meat in our house.
Chicken thighs, contrary to what you may have been led to believe, are healthy (remove the skin if you must). According to Women’s Health Magazine, dark-meat poultry like chicken thighs are rich in iron, zinc and B vitamins, while having lower fat content than red meat (such as beef).
Chicken thigh meat is juicier and doesn’t dry up the way white meat does after it has cooled. So it’s ideal for school (or office) lunch too. I’d marinate the chicken at night, throw them into the oven the following morning. And, voila! A superb school lunch that your kids will be proud to share with the class.
