"My name is Abraham and I am 9 years old.
"Like your son, I am homeschooled so I usually don't pack a lunch for school. My mother often shows me your pictures and told me about your contest. I decided to make one of my favorite vegan lunches and enter it.
"Like you, I have a blog. I put up a lot of pictures of the meal there: The Little Giant.
"I call this lunch 'Artist's Palate'.
"In addition to my bamboo spreader and a cloth napkin, I took rice cakes, peanut butter, raisins, dried coconut, two blackberries, a few cherry tomatoes, some sweet red pepper slices, and a few green beans.
"I also packed two tiny "donut" peaches that we found at the farmer's market. Everything was organic except the raisins and all of the vegetables are local, too."
Thank you so much, Abraham, for entering the contest and showing us the artistic side of fresh fruits and vegetables. Lunchtime at your house looks like fun!
Abraham's free autographed copy of Vegan Lunch Box is on its way. I'll introduce you all to the second place winner next week.
Have a great weekend, everyone!

Such a cute lunch :) I never would have guessed it was made by a 9 year old. Way to go, Abraham!
How cute! Glad you picked Abraham. He's very creative!
Jennifer, in the book, you mention a product I think is called Better Than Honey. I can't find it anywhere. Do you know where it's available, like an online source? Thanks.
It's Suzanne's "Just-Like-Honey" rice nectar. Here it is at Vegan Essentials:

This lunch is a huge hit with my 4 year old.....I am the only vegan in my house and I am always trying to find ways to show my family that vegan is the way to go! I can't wait to see the next winner!
