We were invited to a small pool get together late this afternoon. I knew the girls would be hungry. Since we’re trying to keep to our plant-based diet, it’s easier sometimes to travel with food. I packed both of them snacky type dinners in their Easy Lunch Boxes to go.
Miss A has Tofurkey deli sliced flower and Vegan brand cheese flowers to snack on. The snake picks on either side are blueberries, and below is a sliced strawberry. At the top left is hummus and the top right are honeydew melon flowers. Not shown are whole grain pretzels for dipping in the hummus.
Miss G’s snack box is similar. She also has Tofurkey deli slices and Vegan brand cheese in tree shaped bites. Below the small bites are black plum slices. At the top left is hummus and the top right are honeydew melon trees packed in her Easy Lunch Box.
Products I used to make this lunch are listed below. Click on photo to go to the store:

Love this healthy looking snacks. Where do I get tofurkey deli and vegan cheese? My daughter hates cheese and I’m currently looking for a brand that she’d like. She’d literally strip off cheese from quesadilla and eat just the tortilla.

Mine only care for the cheese sometimes. You’ll have try different brands as some taste plasticy. My grocery store keeps them in the produce aisle near the tofu, won ton wraps, etc. Whole Foods has them in their dairy section. I also highly recommend trying Daiya brand. The cheese melts & looks like cheese but is made of tapioca and pea protein, completely vegan. I think it’s the best option. It’s sold in bricks or shreds.

Thanks for that information! I would definitely look for Daiya cheese and see if it worked.
