"R" you hungry?

"R" was relatively easy, reasonably so, regarding reliably creating a recognizable repast for Ryan's ridiculous rookie reader appetite. Um, yeah, well, you get the idea. I avoided the obvious, like rice... And Ryan requested his name appear in the lunch since it starts with the letter of the day...

Ryan's "R" lunch: ravioli
with red sauce; raisins;
black raspberries; romaine
lettuce; radiatore with red
beans, red bell pepper,
spinach & a red wine
vinegar dressing & Ryan
rice cheese letters; rice
milk on the side. And a
red napkin and red spork too.

7am- soaked steel cut oats,
sliced almonds, raisins,
chopped dates with banana
milk (1/3 banana + water).
9am- romaine lettuce leaves
dipped in leftover sundried
tomato sauce.
11am- apple slices dipped in
almond butter.
1pm- portobello salad wraps: marinated portobello mushrooms (in shoyu & olive oil), bib lettuce, cucumber, tomato, scallion, avocado; 12 baby carrots.
3:30pm- smoothie: 1 cup pineapple, 1/2 banana, 1 T. shredded dehydrated coconut, water.
5:30pm- salad: spinach, mixed baby greens, tomato, onion, shoyu; small bowl of dates, raisins, & sliced almonds.
