Bento – sandwiches, onions and mushrooms, watermelon
Posted @ 4:39 am under Bento, Home cooking, Sandwiches, Savoury, Work foodI packed us deluxe sandwich bento for lunch the next day. This is my own terminology – sandwich bento is just sandwiches; deluxe sandwich bento comes with extra bits and pieces in different compartments. :D
Today’s deluxe sandwich bento consisted of sandwiches, leftover fried onions and mushrooms, and fresh cubes of watermelon (with animal food picks – see the end of this post for information about the bento gear I used) :D
The sandwich fillings, from left to right:
- pork and leek sausages, fried onions and smokey barbecue sauce
- honey and soy chicken (taken off their skewers), shredded lettuce and garlic mayo
- English ham, sliced gherkin pickles, dijon mustard
This is the note I doodled for Jac’s lunch box.
About the bento gear featured in this post
- The animal food picks are from JBox, from a set of 10 Animal Friends Picks.
- The lunch boxes featured in this post areDecor Tellfresh Quarters, which can be purchased from many Woolworths or Coles supermarkets, for around AU$7.00 each (often less than that!). They come with four of removable white compartments (hence “Quarters”), but I tend to only use one (see example bento with one compartment used) or two (see example bento with two compartments used) when I pack lunches. They’re a great lunch box to use for reheatable lunches as they’re microwave-safe.
