Today's Bento

Today's bento was fun for me. I did some cauliflower with melted cheese, and sweet basil seeds for decoration. Cherry tomatoes (I painted little faces on them but they didn't stick), some roast beef, brussel sprouts, white sharp cheddar cheese, and carrot slices. Aren't the little faces cute? I found some edible markers at WalMart of all places- in the cake decorating aisle.

I swear, I'm seeing the grocery store in a whole new light. It's fantastic.

  1. Cauliflower with cheese. Newer thought of trying this. But now, I must say, that it looks good =) Thanks for the inspiration! And your funny faces are indeed cute ;)

  3. I found that it was a little too much cheese in one box. So I think next time I will put something else instead of the white cheddar cheese slices.

    I wanted to try cauliflower instead of rice, and got the idea from watching Iron Chef! haha.

  6. Thank you Michelle!! Dylan lives with his dad now so he doesn't have as much fun with these as I imagine he will when he is back living with me!!

  7. I wasn't sure if he's been able to partake on a visit or not. I imagine Hope would LOVE if I did something like this.

    Oh and by the way - I totally clicked on your Hello Kitty Bento supplies link/ad and already bought some stuff (bento and otherwise). You're evil woman - just EVIL ;)
