Bento Banter - Bento # 2

Made some tuna sandwiches for breakfast and packed them into bento box and gosh ...it was a cheerful breakfast :) with a  bear face smiling at me as I tucked in the tuna sandwiches.  Bento meal can be fun and at the same time nutritious. Since joining bento banter, I am now beginning to like meals packed in bentos. Fun packing them, one tends to make it more creative...like a simple hard boiled egg can be shaped into cute smiling bear face, star shape, love shape, little car and smiling bunny face.  I have a set of egg molds and love each and every one of them.  Happy that I can use them for making my lunch and breakfast bento more cheerful :) and guess what, I have added a new toy - a sandwich sealer to my kitchen assessories collection ( I think that is what it is called - helps seal the edges )  I know for sure I am going to have lots of fun  making my bento meals from now on :) And those cute octopus - haha too cute to even eat them :p

Tuna sandwiches can be delicious if you spice it up with some crushed toasted sesame seeds and chopped celery and chillies with a spoonful of japanese mayo.  That was how I make the tuna fillings....mmmm yummy and I want more.  Seriously, this is what my breakfast should be instead of just taking oats every morning.  I want something more delicious than just plain oats.  I think I will alternately have oats and sandwiches for breakfast :)

Ingredients :  a tin of tuna flakes in brine - drain off brine, chopped celery, 

chopped chillies, crushed toasted sesame seeds and japanese mayo

mixed together 

salad - carrots, celery, japanese cucumber, cherry tomato

and dried apricot - diced into small bite size mixed with

herbs infused olive oil and toasted sesame seeds as garnishing

this is my new toy...it helps seal the edges of the sandwiches :)

dual function...you can make triangle ones too 

with this cute sandwich sealer :)

my egg mold....cute bear face

I have to pamper myself something nice and cheerful

once in a while instead of having oats drinks every morning

Have a great day....hope this bento set will cheer you up

and blow away your Monday blues :)
