What a delicious Mozzarella Chicken sandwich with pesto that I made for our Cooking Light Virtual Supper Club. This month our theme is: Light Lunches. It's already September and my three kids are back to school next week. Two at university and one at high school. Since they started kindergarden I made nutritious lunches for them. That way you know what your kids are eating at school. It's a good habit to pack your own lunch and now my daughter packs a lunch when she goes to work in the summer.
Packing a lunch is not only for kids that are going back to school but for working adults also. When I was working I always brought lunch to work. It was healthier and cheaper.
This month our Cooking Light Virtual Supper Club made recipes for lunches.
Also I suggest that you visit Cooking Light for more ideas on: Packables Lunches.

Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich Recipe
Wow, what a delight this would be! Your photo has my mouth watering! Great recipe.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more with you Helene! Good eating habit at an early age.
ReplyDeleteDelicious round ups!
Looks delicious and light. Perfect for lunch
ReplyDeleteYour sandwich looks wonderful. I like the fact its been lightened and is healthier. I'm sure it tastes as good as it looks.
ReplyDeleteI love the melted mozzarella, a perfect sandwich for both brown bagiing it and lunch at home with the family. Thanks for bringing this to our Cooking Light Virtual Supper Club this month.
ReplyDeleteThe best part of packing a great lunch is the envious stares from folks who want to know where you bought your food. When you say you made it, it's always funny. :) Big proponents of making lunch for school or work! Please pass this sandwich our way.
ReplyDeleteHelene,
ReplyDeleteNow that'a a sandwich to take for lunch. Much better than eating out. I'll be printing this recipe to try.
Your sandwich looks great Helene! I will definitely be trying this one soon!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea. I'm always looking for new recipes for light lunches. Thanks - this is a wonderful one.

Helene, I'm back again because I just clicked over to the Cooking Light link and your sandwich is soooo much prettier than theirs. What a difference.
ReplyDeleteSam
I try to pack a lunch. It's also cheaper than buying lunch every day...except I have been not very good about that lately. This sandwich looks easy and light.
ReplyDeleteBringing a sandwich as gorgeous as yours, who would want to eat out? Not me!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have that in my lunch! Crazy good!
ReplyDeleteI love this sandwich.. Its very flavorful!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with packing lunches oppose to buy from the tuck shops....... This is a great looking sandwich!!!
ReplyDeleteImagine the kid that pulls this out of their lunchbox. This looks great!
ReplyDeleteYou can pack this for me anything of the day, looks drooley delicous.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have this for lunch! The mozzarella and pesto sound great, and the bread looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteWhat a mouthwatering sandwich!!! Wow! I can't wait to make it. My kids are still very young but I couldn't agree more about sending them to school with something nutritious and delicious.
ReplyDeletei'm sure your kids have always eaten well. :) gorgeous sammich.
ReplyDeleteI definitely appreciate the lunch ideas as my daughter is starting kindergarten next week and she will want different things everyday :) The sandwich looks excellent!
ReplyDeleteStart 'em young & they'll thank you for it when they grow up. I'd ove one right now. Just my kind of sandwich. YUM!! It's gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteOh Helene what a beautiful sandwich. I often take food with me to work, not always sandwiches though - much better and healthier than the alternatives.
ReplyDeleteWith a sandwich like that I'd never want to eat out. Looks delicious!!
ReplyDelete95% of the time I pack my lunch too. It's cheaper, healthier, and (call me a food snob) my food tastes better than the dry sandwiches and salty soups at the usual lunch hangouts.
ReplyDeleteWow, Helene! Your photo is AMAZING. This sandwich looks too good to eat. (Well, almost.) This is the kind of lunch that could make a bad day good.
ReplyDeleteYum anyone would be lucky to pack this for lunch!! My lunches are not usually so exciting or gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHere in France people never pack lunches for work (or school). Your sandwich looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI, too, pack a lunch as often as possible. It's the best way to get the freshest and healthiest food.
ReplyDeleteUn bonjour d'une Hélène à une autre Hélène. Votre blog met l'eau à la bouche. C'est un plaisir de vous lire et de découvrir de nouvelles recettes.... Bon weekend.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, that picture is making my mouth water, your sandwich looks SO good!
ReplyDeleteYum -- how can you beat pesto with chicken? This looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteActually, all the suggested recipes sound great! I'll have to tuck the ideas into my recipe binder. Inevitably there are days when we don't have leftovers from dinner the night before and we need a good sammich for lunch.
What a gorgeous sandwich! I would love this for lunch.
ReplyDeleteHealthy eating habits are instilled since the earliest youth. Meals like these make any family appreciate the beauty of healthy foods!
ReplyDeleteI would love this sandwich....mmmmmmmm!
ReplyDeleteOMW, I wish you were packing MY lunch! This looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteHelene, I haven't visited your blog in a little while and I must say I love the new look! Your photos are so fantastic - did you get a new camera or is just that they stand out better on this light background? Regardless, you deserve kudos!
ReplyDeleteMerci Hélène, pour ce billet! Je suis allergique aux arachides et c'est un réel défi que d'éviter d'en consommer. Ce fût un véritable casse-tête pour ma mère et c'est une difficulté de tous les jours pour moi. La beauté de la chose: c'est que j'ai été obligée d'apprendre à cuisiner! Continue ton beau travail, il est très apprécié:))
ReplyDeletehaving my baby boy to start eating healthy is my goal even before he was born! you are so right, homemade and nutritious, the golden key!
ReplyDeleteeven myself love this sandwich too!
thx for stopping by my blog.
keep in touch!
thanx for the round up of yummies!! love the idea used :)
ReplyDeletethis is great!! Simply delicious and comforting!
ReplyDeleteThis is the perfect sauce for all types of pasta... full of great flavors; filling, but not heavy and only gets better for the next day leftovers.
ReplyDeleteHelene, you have a terrific blog and wonderful creative food ideas. Many thanks...
This sandwich looks absolutely delicious!
