Thanks for your responses to my lunch question!
It was fun hearing what you guys would order, and, of course, it was helpful!
I ended up selecting the Chatpata Chana and Raita meal, which came with fresh carrot sticks, broccoli and cauliflower florets, sweet red and yellow bell pepper, cucumbers, daikon radish, sugar snap peas, grape tomatoes, kalamata olives…

A stuffed grape leaf…

And Mediterranean hummus and a cucumber dip infused with Indian flavor.

For a some added crunch, a bag of Stacy’s Pita Chips was also included. I basically chowed them! I forgot how much I liked pita chips!

Nutritious and delicious! Not your “typical” airplane food!

What a great lunch! Back to work I go!

That looks like really good, nutritious, delicious, filling airplane food. It looks like something that was packed from home!
Great choice! Looks delish!
I went on vacation recently and flew American Airlines. I was pleasantly surprised by their healthy offerings. I brought my own food, but it was good to know that I would’ve had healthy options. I hope the rest of your flight goes well
That looks much better than any airplane food I’ve ever had!
Stacey’s Pita Chips are the best!!
That looks fabulous! I would live on an airplane if it meant food that looks as good as that was going to be served!
That looks hella good!

That’s the most amazing airplane lunch I’ve ever heard of!
Yay! I’m glad you chose that. That is seriously some delicious airplane food…now, what can we do about hospital food? Lol.
Everyone I know raves about Virgin, and I have yet to take it. I am feeling a San Diego to San Francisco trip soo though, so maybe I will have to take it!
Your post should have been an ad for Virgin America! Holy smokes! I’m sold!
Wow, this meal was a choice on the plane? That’s pretty incredible!

Wow, when the hub and I flew for our honeymoon last month we had the option of “turkey or ham” . Yup, no thanks. Looks delish! Enjoy cali… soo jealous
YUM- looks better than the meals I’ve had on planes!
Certainly more healthy (and probably tasty) than most airplane meals. You lucked out!!!
Dang, that meal looks so good! Especially for airplane food.
It figures I would have to be on a plane to get food like that. I guess I should start fying more often
