So many vegetarian choices! Today there was a Vegetable Bean Burger or Vegetable Chow Mein. The lunch staff was nice and offered us samples to taste!
Vegetable Bean Burger….tasty….needs some condiments!
Vegetable Chow Mein…..
The students really don’t seem to be enjoying the new menu items….:-(
Wow….Vegetable Curry with Whole Wheat Naan or Chili Lime Wings with Sweet Potato Fries….or a Hamburger…..
Vegetable Curry with Whole Wheat Naan…..
Chili Lime Wings….
Hamburger….
Supplemental snacks….
Bag o’ Kix!
Wow….three new items on the menu today! New Orleans Turkey Sausage with Red Beans and Brown Rice, Black Eyed Pea and Veggie Salad, and what I thought was Albondigas, I think is the Caribbean Meatballs!!
Come take a look! Caribbean Meatballs….
Black Eyed Peas with Veggie Salad….
This was wrapped and sealed so securely that it was difficult to open it for some of the students! So most were not eating because they probably couldn’t open it!!
Turkey Sausage with Red Beans and Brown Rice….
Most of the new items go unopened and most kids don’t even want to try it. I was looking forward to the red beans and rice, but it really did not look very appetizing!
Maybe next time!
Farmer’s Market Salad and Wings of Fire on the menu for today!
Salad was tasty!
Wings o’ Fire….
Tater Tot mountain….
Today I tried the Vegetarian Pad Thai with Spicy Peanut Sauce….not too bad! Tasty and a bit spicy!! Most kids that had the Pad Thai were not even trying it! I think they ran out of Turkey Sandwiches and they didn’t have a choice!
All choices on one tray!!
Sweet potato fries….
Okay, two new items on the menu…..although I think I posted what I thought was Beef Stew already, but todays Beef stew looked a little different! Vegetable Manicotti with Tomato-Basil Marinara and Chunky Beef and Vegetable Stew.
The Vegetable Manicotti looked pretty good!
The Chunky Beef and Vegetable Stew, not so appetizing!
Ancho Chile Chicken with Yakisoba, Vegetable Chow Mein with Egg, Potato Wedges, and Fruit Juice offered on today’s menu! Oh, and they were also serving Albondigas Soup, but it was more like meatballs and potatoes.
I decided to try the Vegetable Chow Mein….
Tots were good! Chow mein was not so good. 😦
What a combo…tots and chow mein.
Ancho Chile with Yakisoba Noodles….I wasn’t ready to try this one yet!
Albondigas Soup….
Nothing new on the menu today….Hamburgers and Beef Soft Taco with Mexicali Corn.
I was hoping there would be a new item to try today….so I had to have the burger….I thought it would be good with the lettuce and tomato, but whoa, the tomato tasted sour! There was definitely something not quite right with it. It looked fine, not slimy, but it just tasted wrong!!!
My lunch tray.
I love that the bun is way on the side, on the table!!
This looks healthy! Nice way to supplement!!
Yes…Asian Pad Thai with Spicy Peanut Sauce was on the menu today!! It smelled good! I brought a really yummy lunch today so I did not try it, but I will the next time it is on the menu!
WOW! This made me happy today!! Would have been good with the Greek Salad from Day 5! It was tasty, but a bit bland. Surprising since the Chickpea and Veggie Stew was rather spicy!! Kids weren’t devouring it, but at least it’s a nice choice to have.
Hamburgers were the other choice today…..
