Living the bento lifestyle...sort of
It isn’t often I pack a sandwich bento. But a decent deal at Whole Foods convinced me. While I can’t completely afford to shop there, I have found a compromise. I purchase meat on sale elsewhere and my fruits and vegetables (which are fairly reasonably priced) at Whole Foods. Typically, I like the look [...]
Today’s bento is a little different for me as I don’t normally pack lettuce wraps or roll ups, yet there you can see one of each. Yesterday’s attempt at a fruit-nut-cheese salad from Bittman’s How to Eat Everything Vegetarian was a moderate success.

So, I’ve been on the hunt for recipes…simple recipes as I’m still not comfortable with overly complicated things. [...]
I’ve had a great bento week this week. I’m super pleased about that too! And I’m super pleased about how today’s bento turned out. It’s not often I use my Lock & Lock bento set, a set I happened to stumble across on Ebay one day. I hear these things are a near urban legend [...]
Turkey meatballs. I was wary of my want to make these. As I was flipping through my small collection of Everyday Food back issues a few days ago, I came across the recipe for these along with suggestions on using them in 3 different dishes. I don’t usually use turkey in my bentos, nor do [...]
