Bento lunches in under 5 minutes...
(See my original post for simple instructions for How to Make Super-Easy Japanese Bento Lunches)
Nearly two years ago I told you about how lazy I am about making my husband's bento lunch...
...every morning.
Unexpectedly, that post ended up becoming the most popular on my blog.
What does this mean?
Perhaps it means that there are a lot of people, just as busy as I am!
We still want to make delicious and healthy bento lunches, but don't want to spend more than five minutes on it.
I'm not a crazy bento mama. I don't get up at 4 am to make decoben.
(I don't know how anyone can find time to do that and live a normal life!)
I just save heaps of time and money by packing my husband's lunch.
One of the easiest ways to make a bento lunch in 2-5 minutes is to just pack leftovers. Here are a few photos of things I have used in my husband's lunches.
(I will be doing posts for all the recipes, so stay tuned♡)
Top: Teriyaki Chiken Bento with shredded cabbage
Does it get any easier than this? I often make a large batch of chicken teriyaki and freeze half of it to use in bento lunches, pizzas, salads, anything! Recipe coming soon!
Nagoya Tebasaki Bento
My husband is from Aichi so this is one of his favorite dinners, and bento! (And one of mine too)
Recipe to come soon!
Beef Nikujaga Bento
...I hope I'm not looking to lazy here...
Calamari Bento with Mini Hamburg/ Hambaagu
Tonjiru and Meatball Bento
Tonjiru means "Pork Soup". Those two silicone cups are filled with Tonjiru minus the broth (drained on paper towel). Soup is NOT a bento food, but I just included this one to show you can turn anything into bento filling! And those are asian style meatballs from the freezer, just to make it too easy.
