Welcome!

I created this blog with the desire to make lunch simple, fun and healthy. I had turned to bento to make this possible.
I live with my husband and our adorable pets and we live a fairly busy life so, being able to have a fast fun lunch makes it easier to save money and eat healthy. Bento is for everyone, not just children, and I strive to inspire people to make lunch an exciting aspect of their day, instead of the same old monotonous task and boring foods which inevitably lead to spending too much money on cafeteria food or fast food, or skipping meals all together.
This blog really has grown to be so much more than I had originally invisioned! It really incorporates my love for local and fresh food and making meals fun and tasty, not just lunch! There is great potential for all meals and bento still really inspires me, but I also really enjoy being inspired by the local farmer's market, and different books and I think the blog has really taken off to so much more than just a bento blog. I hope you feel inspired and enjoy it as much as I do!

Paramount Perogies

 I love perogies, and in the past, I always just ate them in a very ordinary way, boiled and then pan fried... but not that long ago, I developed a new way that I like to eat perogies and I have captured it to share with you.


Essentially, I like to make a sort of stew with mushrooms, onions and diced canned tomatoes. In today's example, I added some slices of flank steak to the stew. I boil my perogies until cooked and then toss them in a pan with butter, garlic and lemon pepper (as usual) and then serve it up with the stew on the bottom, perogies on top and today with a bit of sprouts. I also like to eat them with sour cream (or plain greek yogurt).

This is a really simple way to change things up and make a more balanced meal out of it!


That's all for today! Until next time, Happy Munching!
