My First Bento! Toddler Bento #1

Well it's here! Today is the day I start making bentos! Here is my first bento. This is for my son who will be referred to as Gumball from now on :]

I do not use pics in his lunches because he is only 1 and a half so chances are he will either try to eat them and choke or be too distracted by them and not even touch his lunch. 

Please bare with me on the lighting of these pics for the next few days, I am still getting the hang of this. 

 

In this lunch:

• Watermelon and Sandwich Sushi (my first attempt at it, it came out ok, but could def. be better!)
• GoGo Squeez applesauce pouch
• Ranch Veggie Straws

Ultimate Chicken Finger Bento

I have decided that I am going to go on a diet to try and lose 14 lbs! So this is the last non-salad bento I will be posting in a while! This is one that I ate a few weeks ago, I just did not have the time to post it until now. 

In this lunch:

Top: ranch dressing for dipping, scalloped potatoes (sour cream and onion flavor)

Middle: Ultimate Chicken Fingers - These are the best! They are from the recipe on the Bisquick box but you can also find it here.

Bottom: Broccoli

If you are interested in my new diet or how it is going please feel free to check out my personal blog where I will be writing all about it!

Happy Bento

For today's lunch:

Wish I could have done a St. Patrick's Day theme but I didn't have any St. Patty's supplies.

Guess this shamrock background will have to do for this year :]

In this lunch:

Top: rasperries and blackberries, grapes

Middle: sausage alfredo pasta with a smiley face pic (stupid camera glare :O)

Bottom: broccoli, strawberries

Packed in a Goodbyn Bynto.

Chorizo Sausage Skillet Bento

This is the first bento I ever made in a bento box :] I still do not have any other supplies like picks or cute cutters so this one is a little on the plain side. But I love it none the less.

In this lunch:

Ants on a log (celery, peanut butter, and raisins), tabbouleh salad in a star cup

Chocolate cupcake (a treat my boyfriend bought me), 2 strawberries

Left over chorizo sausage skillet (that stuff is amazing btw).

Introducing... Our First Bento Box!

Last night our first bento box arrived!

And I LOVE it! I am over the moon exited to have it!

 It's a red Goodbyn Bynto!

It contains three VERY roomy compartments. I actually had a hard time filling them all up.

Here you can see I am working on my indoor photography skills. The lighting still isnt 100% but I would say it is definitely getting there. These were taken in a photo cube.

My 2 month old fit in there too! :]
