packing lunch

I am going to try and keep a record of what I pack for Terran so I can later refer back to this and pack the same thing instead of trying to come up with something new. I've been told by another Japanese mom that ethnic lunch is a no no. Her kids refuse to bring a Japanese bento to school because they get teased.... America is made up of people of so many different races, but they all pretend to be the image of a classic American instead of what they really are. I am not going to fight it. My kid is not going to bring onigiri to school (even though he loves it). Here's my shot at trying to be an American mom (that I am not)....

Each meal, I will try to pack a combination of carb, protein, and fruit & veg. He gets dairy from the milk that he buys at school.

day 1:
mac&cheese w. ham
steamed carrots and cauliflowers
grapes
buy milk
(snack: goldfish)

I checked his lunch bag after he came home and saw that he didn't eat much. He ate all his grapes, and carrots, none of cauliflowers (that he usually loves), maybe a bite or 2 of mac & cheese. He bought himself a carton of strawberry milk.
When he got home, he was so hungry that he finished his mac, ate more grape, ate a banana, 2 Popsicle, and downed a glass of milk.... I have no idea why he didn't eat at lunch....

day 2:
diced ham
steamed broccoli and carrots
crackers
banana
buy milk
(snack: raisins)

day 3:
5 slices of salami
steamed veg
crackers
grapes
buy milk
(snack: raisins, pretzels)

day 4:
egg, ham, zucchini fried rice
2 slices of salami
steamed veg
diced apples
buy milk
(snack: whole wheat crackers & grapes)
