Herby Chicken Lunchbots Bento
Here's the last bento for the week: and it's good old chicken and rice. I loved this combo when I was a kid, and my kids kind of do too, minus the rice. Sigh. But I find that they will grudgingly eat rice with furikake (and also in hot dog maki, fried rice, sticky rice, or jook), so I put a cup of it in here. This rice is black rice and pearl barley. I disguised it as a cupcake with a tomato "cherry". The chicken is just garlicky herbes de provence olive oil chicken, oven baked. I made more kale chips tonight, which didn't survive for bento extras. The rest of the LunchBot Trio holds a variety of pickled stuff, carrots, cherries, strawberry and baby peach. Oh, and a broccoli tree. Have a great day!

DeleteOh the chicken looks terrific! Even cold chicken tastes really good when it is seasoned with garlic and herbs... Delicious bento!
ReplyDeleteIt's so true Nami! It's what I love about chicken in bento. It's nice to have a change from shoyu flavor once in a while too :) Thanks a lot Nami!
