[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 374123, member: 1991"] I had kids with unusual tastes. easy child's favourite lunch pack was Greek style meze. I put in separate little containers (with a frozen juice popper, or box, to keep it all fridge cold): Kalamata olives; tzaziki (yogurt, garlic and cucumber dip eaten with bread or vegetable sticks); a piece of continental bread; carrot sticks and/or celery sticks; maybe a little Greek salad (cucumber, tomato, red capsicum and feta salad with oil/red wine vinegar dressing). Her favourite was Greek-style pickled baby octopus. This is fried in a dry pan (it sort of stews in the liquid that comes out of it) and then while it is hot, I pour over a marinade made of lemon juice, a little red wine vinegar, a lot of olive oil, some salt and garlic, all pureed in the blender. Pour it onto the hot octopus and it absorbs the flavours well. I keep the octopus and marinade in the fridge and sometimes chop it up into a Greek salad. easy child and the other kids loved to take this to school for lunch because watching her eat it would gross out the other kids. You can let the ends of the legs stick out of your mouth and wiggle it with your tongue, so the meal looks like what the aliens eat, in "V". Also - once we served this up for easy child, nobody ever, ever, stole her lunch again. Marg [/QUOTE]
