Bento Six

My children are fussy and picky eaters and they eat very slowly. When I first saw some bentos prepared by Blurmommy and Bento Pet, I was so excited and decided to give it a try so as to get my children to eat food which is beautifully presented.


The trick worked! They love the bentos I prepared and finish in record time! Here's one which I have prepared.



Bottom box: Spinach fettucine with fish paste.
Upper box: ham and cheese roll with seaweed (star shaped)
and fruit salad (fruits (see picture) + yogurt)


Fruits (fragrance pear and persimmon cut into shapes)

Seaweed cutter

Okay I think I get it. A bento is a Japanese home packed lunch?
