Lunch for Friday, September 16, 2011

Today's lunch was pure inspiration from LuckySundae.  I was browsing Twitter this morning and saw her post here of some cute elephants.  I was in awe of how cute and how simple it was.  She even gave a tutorial !  Mine is not as cute as her's but it was inspiration.

I took some white rice out of the freezer and thawed it out in the microwave.  Then I added a handful of frozen mixed vegetables to a pan, heated that up, added the rice, some curry powder and salt.  It was tasty.  My elephants are made using provolone cheese, a circle cutter, straw and knife.  I colored the cheeks and ears with food coloring.  Also in this bento are some chicken nuggets, broccoli, red beans and a mini sweet pepper.
