2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon

What are some yummy, healthy lunches to pack for school?
-Miss E
I've brought my lunch to school every day since 7th grade and am getting tired of the everyday PB&J. Sometimes I'll have bologna or egg salad, and occasionally leftovers from last night's dinner, but what I'd really like are some good recipes so that I don't have to dread lunch every day at school.
Answer
One way to look at it is-
How can you make the same old stuff more interesting and exciting?
Think of it as redecorating your room!
You have all of these ingredients;
it's up to you to redecorate them!
(feel free to adjust to your preferences)
(and give them a cool name!!)
Here are a few ideas to get you started:
Bologna and Cheese Rollups - Red Carpet Roll-Ups
4 slices bologna (or other lunch meat)
4 unwrapped cheese sticks
mustard for dipping
Lay one slice of bologna on a plate.
Top with a cheese stick. (Or green onion,pickle spear,carrot stick)
Roll the bologna around the cheese stick, jelly-roll style.
Cut into thirds.
Secure with toothpicks.
Repeat with remaining bologna slices and cheese sticks.
Serve with your favorite mustard,honey mustard or bbq as a dipping sauce.
Makes 2 servings.
Bologna Slaw Wrap Sandwiches
6 ounce pkg. bologna slices,diced (or other meat or fish-you choose)
2 cups deli coleslaw, drained

6 (10-inch) flavored flour tortillas
In medium bowl, combine all ingredients
except for cheese and tortillas;
mix well to coat.
Line tortillas with cheese slices
and divide bologna mixture among tortillas.
Roll up tightly to enclose filling,
wrap in plastic wrap,
and chill until serving.
6 sandwiches

4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless (again you choose the meat)
2 tablespoons olive oil
