Today’s featured bento is a quick one using fried chicken that was in my frozen food “bento-stash”. What’s also quick about this prep…there’s no rice in today’s lunch!
Ah… summertime! Well, it’s not quite here yet but it’s close enough so today’s bento has one of my favorite warm weather salads…caprese!
Today’s featured bento box is vegan. Sounds pretty healthy huh? On the “straight and narrow”? Well, on closer inspection you’ll see that the nori wrapped musubi is made with white rice! Not that white rice is bad or anything; it’s just not the best choice for optimal nutrition.
Today’s featured bento box is vegetarian and depicts…(let’s sing it) “on the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me… a partridge in a pear tree”.
The tree’s leaves are cauliflower and broccoli steamed with garlic and sea salt. The trunk is cut from “Field Roast”, a vegan meat substitute. Tomatoes are disguised as pears and the partridge is fashioned by a quail and hen’s egg (is that ironic?) . White rice and white asparagus fills the rest of the box.
Hope everyone has a safe and peaceful celebration. Season’s greetings!
