Pink Bunny Egg Bento
TinySprite's two-tiered bento holds smoked salmon and cream cheese bread rollups on sweet potato bread. To make bread rollups, it's best to use soft bread. I remove the crusts, which I don't usually do, but it looks much neater this way. You can save the crusts for another use (like mac and cheese). Flatten the bread with a rolling pin, then spread the cream cheese, layer the salmon, and simply roll up tightly. Cut into bento-size pieces, and pack snugly so they don't unroll. I added a piece of steamed broccoli and a hard-boiled beet-dyed bunny-molded egg. The upper tier contains strawberry, carrots, cucumbers, nectarines and Okinawan sweet potatoes. Easy!

ReplyDeleteSweetie pink bento! The print on the pink bunny egg is so clear! I haven't use my egg mold for quite a while now. Love the bread rolls up Sheri <3
ReplyDeleteHi Marychey;

Thanks a lot Lia! I haven't used my mold for long time either!
Ohhh I see sweet potato bread! I'd LOVE this sandwich. Your bento is always so cute and colorful. Very cheerful! Oh, just remember. Do you know Biren of Roti n Rice? I need to invite you to her bento banter group!
ReplyDeleteSheri, I love this bento ever since I saw it on your flickr. Really, I love the pinky nuance. And bright polkadot-y BG fabric that you used have even made the pict looks so sweet :D
ReplyDeleteNice! I love the idea of salmon roll-ups. We don't eat nearly enough salmon... I might have to try this one!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet bento! The bunny egg turned out so perfect, that's amazing :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you dyed the egg with beet! How did you do that?
ReplyDeleteSo jealous you get all these colorful yummy breads! I would have to make mine from scratch..what did you use to color your egg? Color is so good.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nami, and thanks for the invite to Bento Banter. Appreciate it, and your nice comments as always :)
ReplyDeleteThank you tatabonita. I love this circus-y fabric too :)
Thanks Heather. I love salmon, and try to make it once a week if I can find it.
Thanks Natakiya :)
MommyUnglued and Big Momma: I steamed red beetroot, then added to a small amount of water in a glass dish.The red dye from the beet will color the water. You can soak the hard-boiled egg in the dye for a couple of hours or until it turns the shade of pink that you like. Hope that helps :)
So cute this bento...love the pink bunny!
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a great week Sheri :-)
