Parents sending kids back to school today have already spent the GNP of Cuba on new pencils, protractors, binders, outfits and backpacks. How about some new recipes for school lunches?

We asked three of Toronto's best chefs for some back to school recipes. The stipulation was that the meals had to fit in a thermos. We also told them no raw octopus, no French cheeses, no goose liver. In fact, no fancy ingredients of any kind.

Here are the recipes:

Double Deuce chili and cornbread

Corn chowder

Chicken soup and cheddar biscuits
