Week 50

Klaartje made a wonderful bento-like snack!

Pita bread with orange, pepper, rocket and mint. How lovely!

BENTO?

WHY BENTO?

WHAT IS A BENTO?

WHAT MAKES A BENTO...

A BENTO?

Rose and Liz started making bento's because:
1) eating healthy and versitile lunches
2) love for food
3) but also loosing weight
4) love for cooking
5) and each other
6) knowing the importance of presentation
7) making and receiving a gift once a week is giving and receiving love

So:
Is this a bento?                                                               Is this "more" a bento?

The next day, to make up for the "conceptual bento" Rose made for Liz "a real bento".

Top left: Calamaris in it's own ink (out of a can brought, from Spain) served in a cucumber bowl.
Top second to left: dutch take on a chutney. Peaches from a can mixed with home cured cauliflower. Middle left: Kalamata olives served in a cucumber bowl.
Bottom  left: same as top left.
The boat made of Corsendonck (Belgian premium beer) cheese filled with thousand island dressing.
To the right: skewers with Kalamata olives and crayfish served on lollo rosso salad leaves.

*** HAVE A HAPPY BENTO DAY!!! ***
