I spent several hours at school today working on a lecture for our independent study quantum mechanics class. Our independent studies are extremely useful, because I learn a ton, but they're also a lot of work because the students do the lecturing. Thankfully, there are three of us in the class, so the load is lightened a little from my previous independent study experience. Because I wanted to be home to make supper, I didn't want to take a full meal with me to school. I built a snack bento in my 1 cup Fit & Fresh container. I packed 2 Babybel cheese wheels (original and gouda), 1 Laughing Cow garlic herb cheese wedge, and filled the rest with about a half cup of homemade trail mix.
GORP of sorts
1.5 cups almonds
1.5 cups walnutsa
1 cup pumpkin seeds, roasted and salted
1/2 cup Craisins
1/2 cup Zante currants
1/2 cup Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mix together and store in a one quart baggie. It doesn't last long!
On a side note: I hadn't planned ahead when I brought the Laughing Cow cheese wedge. I usually like to spread the cheese on something - bread or veggies - but I hadn't brought anything that had a spreadable surface. Enter the humble almond. The unsalted almonds in my GORP were the PERFECT vehicle for the garlic-herb cheese. Mmm...
