A September lunch round-up: staycation time!

My daughters have a couple of weeks off before uni classes begin. We had hoped to go someplace, but as it turns out, we do have a lot of commitments in the next 2 weeks, so it just didn't work out.

We are, however, making the most of lazy mornings and sunny afternoons, with local excursions to get that "vacation feel".

So, lunches are perhaps a bit more interesting and fun, this week. Here's what we're doing for lunch:

  • homemade "pepperoni" pizza (thin-sliced beef hot links in place of pepperoni)
  • vegetarian garden lasagna (I use seasoned tofu in place of ricotta, and lots of chopped kale)
  • applesauce (using apples that I pick up under the trees every morning -- thanks to the pesky squirrels)
  • apple Brown Betty (I just like the name. Sounds fun, doesn't it?)
  • fresh plums, apples and tomatoes 
We are stuffing ourselves with garden produce. Sometimes I look at our plates and think, "that came from the garden, that came from the garden, that came from the garden. . .". Just fun to see how much we've grown that fills our plates.

What's on your lunch menu this week? What do you make for "fun" lunches, special occasions, birthdays, etc?
