Brown Bag Challenge

This month I am participating in the Brown-Bag Challenge where the Food Network’s Healthy Eats blog is teaming up with fellow food bloggers to host a month-long initiative to eat consciously and save money by packing a lunch each weekday instead of eating out. You can join here and share what you’re eating on Facebook and Twitter with the hashtag #brownbag.

Curried Mango Quinoa 007

This was my Friday lunchbox this week, including lunch and enough additional food for two to three snacks:

  • A Curried Mango Salad, which I am still tweaking and will share soon, atop curly kale, which I lightly massaged with olive oil
  • More Shabby Sheik Hummus from Appetite for Reduction with the last of the crackers from recipe testing for Iris and Brittany

Earlier lunchbox posts this week:

A few tips:

  • As you can tell from earlier lunchboxes this week, I made a large batch of crackers, hummus and bean butter, and mixed and matched all week
  • Kale holds up well to a lunchbox salad
  • Always slice figs before eating them (the odds of wasps are low, but still present)

Mango and curry sounds like a delicious combination. Excited to see the final recipe.
