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!

Chow Mien

Recently, I was inspired to make chow mien! I picked up some fresh noodles, mini corn, mushrooms, broccoli, and beef as well as a sauce mix.  I followed the directions for the noodles (boil briefly and then pan fry lightly) and on the sauce. Everything came together quite nicely and was a bit different than my usual stir fry! It's great to try something new!


Until next time, Happy Munching!
