Again another week of bento lunches. Again another 4 to show.

Monday: Cucumber, lettuce, carrot and avocado sushi ; raw carrot, broccoli, cauliflower ; grilled corn ; soy sauce container for the hubs

Tuesday: Rice ; sweet and sour stir fry w/ Corn, broccoli, carrot, zucchini, bean sprouts, capsicum.

This lunch was declared too big, and was lunch on Wednesday as well. I got half a container of rice back as ‘cutting the carbs’ is on the plan right now. So this lead to carb free rest of the week.

Thursday: Egg salad made w/ boiled eggs, pickles, avocado, thousand island dressing, cream cheese ; raw carrot, cucumber, celery, cauliflower, tomatoes, capsicum, spinach and lettuce from the garden ; grilled corn.

Friday: Stir fried corn, carrot, tofu, zucchini in a soy and honey.

Another week of bentos. Another 4 day week of bentos as Monday was the Hubs’ birthday and he had the day off. We went out for lunch and saw the Avengers. It was an awesome long weekend.

I made a batch of mini greek pies because silverbeet was fresh and on special where we buy our veges, so they feature heavily this week. I used puff pastry instead of short crust, and baked them in a cup cake tray.

On Monday I asked Mark if he wanted anything particular for his bento the next day and he said ‘split peas’. So this was the resulting bento

Tuesday: split peas cooked in tomatoes with spices and spinach ; raw broccoli ; rice dam wall ; lettuce from the garden, mung beans, cherry tomatoes, cucumber and shredded carrot.

Wednesday: Mini greek pies ; slaw made from cabbage, carrot and broccoli.

Thursday: mini greek pies ; pesto pasta salad with raw broccoli, tomatoes, peas and spinach.

Friday: ‘chicken’ fillet ; fried rice with fake ham, tofu and a crap tonne of vegetables.

This week again not a full week as the Hubs has Friday and Monday off next week as he has arranged a long weekend for this birthday. Yay. So it means no bento for tomorrow. So technically this is bento Thursday. These are the bentos we had this week.

Monday: Rice and berloti beans ; soft boiled egg ; raw broccoli, green beans and tomatoes ; pesto potatoes on a bed of baby spinach and shredded carrot and feta cheese.

Tuesday: cucumber, carrot and avocado sushi ; rolled omelette ; raw tomatoes, snow peas and mandarin slices. For the Hubs I replaced the mandarin for a little tub of soy sauce for his sushi.

Wednesday: Mexican tomato rice and kidney beans ; guacamole in an avocado shell (with a lemon slice to keep it nice) ; crackers ; carrot, capsicum and cucumber sticks to dip ; baby cos lettuce heart leaves to garnish.

Thursday: (Leftovers) Tofu and vegetable fried rice ; ‘chicken’ and corn in lemon and honey sauce.

We had leftovers on Thursday as I have been feeling very exhausted all week. Turns out I probably have anemia due to a bad reaction to some medication I was on. Went to the doctor today and get results on Monday. On the hubs’ birthday I have to go to the doctor. But we are going to make the most of it and go to the doctor then go and have lunch and see the Avengers so it isn’t totally a shitty day for him.
