What's in the lunchbox today...

Only needed to pack one lunch today: my older child requested the last of the black bean salad (I know he likes it a lot, but over a sandwich? He won't say it but I wonder if I should go back to stars...), "ants on a log", a cheese stick, an apricot and a box of raisins for snack.

Here is the recipe for the black bean salad, for those looking for a quick, healthy side dish at your weekend BBQ, and a lunch option that travels well. (Don't forget to pack a spoon or fork!)
