Vegan Lunch Box : 150 Amazing, Animal-Free Lunches Kids and Grown-Ups Will Love! / Jennifer Mccann 1600940729 text_rev.qxd 4/21/08 8:53 AM Page i PRAISE FOR VEGAN LUNCH BOX “Jennifer McCann’s cookbook makes vegan cooking accessible and fun. It’s informative but not stuffy, detailed yet concise, and the recipes are creative without being difficult. There are so many delicious, well put to- gether options here, it’s not only perfect for kids but for anyone who ever eats lunch!” —Isa Chandra Moskowitz, author of VEGANOMICON “Being a vegan kid just got a lot easier! The menus in Vegan LunchLunch BoxBox make it easy to plan a balanced and nutritious lunch for your kids (or your- self!). The variety alone makes it worth having.” —Erin Pavlina, author of RAISING VEGAN CHILDREN IN A NON-VEGAN WORLD “Destined to become a classic, this is the book vegan parents have been waiting for. And who knew? A vegan mom started a blog describing the lunches she made for her son for one school year, and it won the 2006 Bloggie Award for “Best Food Blog” (NOT “best VEGETARIAN food blog,” but “Best Food Blog,” period!). It inspired, delighted, and motivated not only vegan parents, but omnivores bored with their own lackluster lunches. This book will continue delighting with recipes that are as innovative, kid- pleasing, and healthful as they are delicious.” —Bryanna Clark Grogan, author of NONNA’S ITALIAN KITCHEN 1600940729 text_rev.qxd 4/21/08 8:53 AM Page ii This page intentionally left blank 1600940729 text_rev.qxd 4/21/08 8:53 AM Page iii Vegan Lunch Box 1600940729 text_rev.qxd 4/21/08 8:53 AM Page iv This page intentionally left blank 1600940729 text_rev.qxd 4/21/08 8:53 AM Page v Vegan Lunch Box 150 Amazing, Animal-Free Lunches Kids and Grown-Ups Will Love!

From birthday parties to day camp outings, being a child in America means being offered animal products dozens of times each year. And of all the hazards facing the vegan child, none compares to what happens every day during the school lunch period. School cafeterias are enemy territory to vegetarian and vegan kids. Nearly all these cafeterias serve as the dumping grounds for the commodity meat and dairy products purchased by the USDA’s price support program. What’s worse, meat industry lobbyists have suc- ceeded in shaping the National School Lunch Program’s nutritional guidelines, so that protein requirements and saturated fat allowances are kept unreasonably high. In consequence, most school cafeterias serve meals that resemble some Frankensteinian mishmash of all the worst foods McDonald’s, Taco Bell, and Long John Silver’s have to offer. Breaded nuggets and french fries, anyone? xiii 1600940729 text_rev.qxd 4/21/08 8:53 AM Page xiv This insanely unhealthy system seems destined to crumble within the next generation, but that’s little comfort to vegan mothers whose children are starting school today. It was in exactly this situation that Jennifer McCann found herself back in 2005. Her seven-year-old son, James, was starting the first grade. Soon, every afternoon, he would find himself in the school cafeteria watching his friends and classmates devour cheeseburgers, pizza, and fried chicken. What could Jennifer send her son to school with each day that would en- sure he wouldn’t feel tempted to eat like the other kids? The answer: give James a lunch that is better—much better—than anything served to his classmates. And by better, I don’t simply mean healthier—I mean better in every respect. Every school day, Jennifer cooks up a miniature four-course meal that trumps the cafeteria’s of- ferings in terms of flavor, color, texture, creativity, and especially love. She packages these meals in snazzy, Japanese-style bento lunch- boxes and also frequently relies on a Thermos for soups, sauces, and cold drinks. Every mother must worry that, by not eating like other kids, their children will be isolated and even ridiculed for their diet. But James’s lunches have made him anything but a pariah. His classmates know great-looking food when they see it, and so his lunches have made James the envy of his school. Appreciation for James’s lunches extends well beyond the walls of his cafeteria. In 2005, Jennifer started her blog at veganlunchbox .com. And with that, James has become not just the envy of his fel- low first graders but the poster boy for an international audience of thousands of kids, parents, and other lovers of great food. Each school day, Jennifer posts a photo of her latest offering, complete with write- up, cooking summary, and notes on what James ate, didn’t eat, loved, hated, or merely tolerated. Based on James’s evaluations, Jennifer awards each meal from one to five stars.
