TIPS FOR BROWN BAGGING LUNCH

Aunt Saunny
For a nutritious and low calorie lunch, pack some raw, or
lightly steamed (then chilled) vegetables such as broccoli,
cauliflower or carrots. Add a small container of dip (or
individual package of salad dressing) and you've got a
great snack or lunch addition.
A thermos can keep things hot as well as cold, which opens
up a host of lunchtime possibilities. How about soups, or
pastas or even stir-frys? A wide mouthed thermos container
can be the brown bagger's best friend. Just fill with piping
hot food and seal. It will stay hot until lunchtime.
Use frozen ice packs to help keep cold foods cold. Freezing
drinks like juices and iced teas can also help keep foods
cold, and who doesn't prefer a cold drink (keep in mind
that the containers are likely to sweat while thawing, so
wrap you food well so it doesn't get soggy).
