What's in Monday's Lunch - 6/7

Monday = Pizza, specifically:

WW Pizza Bagel
Bagel w/ butter or cream cheese
Tuna salad plate/sandwich
Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich

Sides:
Tossed Vegetable Salad
Fresh Orange Smiles
Chilled Mixed Fruit

We assemble the pizza bagels here with a whole wheat bagel, USDA commodity part skim mozzarella (2 oz of it - I've heard it's somewhat overwhelming but the lunch law is specific about the amount of protein required), and government tomato sauce (corn syrup, lot of salt). Altogether though there are fewer additives than in the pizzas we buy frozen.

Tossed vegetable salad and fresh orange slices are nice choices - fresh raw fruits and vegetables. The chilled mixed fruit? Not so much - canned commodity product with peaches, pears, grapes, corn syrup and sugar - 15g of sugar in all. The origin of the fruit appears to be California.

Give us your lunch reviews!
