So, I have been growing increasingly interested in creating Bentos for Rich and my lunches. I have started by doing a few here lately. I will NEVER have as much time to spend on them as some bloggers have. I admire their work, though! Here are a few that I have created...
This first one was created for Rich to take for breakfast/lunch. I made this one the designated "cold" one and the one below this one the "hot" one. I figured he could have some of the cold one for breakfast and the rest with his hot one for lunch!
 |
| The main compartment has: Cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, and yellow
peppers cut into various shapes (stars, flower-type deals, and hearts).
The little green container beside it has some ranch. It is a
repurposed playdoh container! He also has some crackers in a muffin cup
along with cheese and ham. I couldn't resist the heart pick! The
smallest side compartment is an orange fluff thingie that I LOVE...he's
not a fan...it came home! More for me! Beside it is some vanilla
yogurt with fresh berries! |
 |
| This is his "hot" one. It has skewers with leftover pork tenderloin and mandarin oranges. Weird combo, but he LOVED the broccoli casserole I made so he has some of that as well. |
 |
| This is actually my breakfast/lunch for tomorrow. In the main compartment I included a fajita-sized ham and cheese wrap, a skewer of fresh blueberries that I picked this evening, a boiled egg, and a "cookie butter" roll-up. More to come on the Cookie Butter later...Rich is officially obsessed with it! The small compartment holds 2 strawberries also picked tonight and some orange fluff. I topped it with a few flower sprinkles. :) |
 |
| This is Rich's breakfast/lunch for tomorrow. The main compartment has the same things as mine with fresh veggies replacing the boiled egg. In the smallest compartment, I included 3 Mexican Meatballs in a muffin cup so he can take them out and nuke them if he wants. Those things are a favorite and SO easy! The other container has peach yogurt topped with berries. |
 |
| This lunch made me giggle and hubby smile! I will say, Rich is a trooper! He deals with my little obsessions very well...he even bragged about this to his boss who couldn't have cared less! I named this "Under the Sea"...yeah, not very original but it's the first thing I thought of when I made this! It is just dyed Ramen (I had a craving) with a little of the packet seasoning as well as my own twist. I added some fresh herbs and black & white sesame seeds. I topped the noodles with sauteed shrimp with garlic and herbs. He liked it and I agree that it was quite tasty! |

So, there you have it! Laugh is you may, but it's kinda fun! Let me know what you think! Maybe I'll actually start posting regularly and get some more followers! LOL
