Bento in a hamburger box

I've been using a hamburger box lately. It has a nice capacity but it leaks, so I often discover that my bag is smeared with juices from salads... This is the main disadvantaged of this box. It's shape is round so it turn over easily in a bag. 
Fried fish, grapes, cabbage salads and boiled egg with cheese.

Soba noodles wits sesame, boiled egg, tomatoes and cucumber. The little orange guy is a mayo container. i made it from "Kinder surprise" :) It does the job perfectly :)

Deep fried dumplings in teriyaki sauce, rice balls, zucchini and egg.

Lavash rolls with soy meat and veggies. Potatoes pancakes wit soy meat and carrot salads with mayo. And boiled egg of course :)

Carrots and wasabi

I used a simple box this time, because I wanted to have that aesthetic look, that simple bentos have.

I just had to add usagi sauce bottle :D 

Onigiri, boiled egg, fried meat and carrots sticks that I rolled in olive oil mixed with wasabi. I am a wasabiholic :) I love that stuff. I even eat it alone. Of course my eyes and mouth burns but I love the taste :)
Just rinse carrots with it. Add as much wasabi as you can handle. It's a strong thing. You can use any oil you want I guess :P
I made "grass" from nori. I just use scissors to cut it. It's a nice eatable divider :)

Here we go...

Here's some new bento I made :)

I made onigiri with sesame seed and poppy seed. Sesame suits them better then poppies. But they were still good. Nex to onigiri there is some salads with mayo. In the yellow tier there is vegetables stew and some fried fish. 
This one bento has a lot of bread in it. Vegetable stew is becoming my favorit. It's easy to make and is tasty. I use cookie cutters for shaping cheese and bread. I put little tea bag in the midle tier. You can allways find some hot water for it if you are hveing your lunch at work.

Beautifill but not usefull...

Finally my new bento box "Animal in the forest" has arrived. It is a beautiful two tiers pink box, smallers then classical one with a nice and playfull cover. It's really nice but.... it SMELLS AWFULLY :( :( It has a super strong smell of plastic, the one that is not used for food. It's almost a week since I got it and the smell is still as strong as the moment I unpacked it. I even get dizzy by smelling it :( :( :(  What is more, I couldn't find a sign of food friendly plastic wich looks like this:
My other bento boxes have it.

The good news is then I wrote to the seller and he kindly returned my money back. He couldn't explain the smell. 
So, be careful while buying your bento suplies, for the joy of receiving a new box can be replaced with a disappointment.

:)

So here it is. My first bento in a new box :)






Burger bento box


At last I got my burger bento box. And I'm not disapointed. It's about 10 cm hight and 15 cm wide. 


This is how it looks in my hand. At first I was afraid, that it will be to big. But it holds as much as my old Urara box. 


It has 3 diferent lids. 

Since the green lid is the uper one and the burger cap added on it makes some space, I decided that it will be great for onigiri ;) 

This brown lid will suit for vegetables... or sweet stuff ;) It's about 2 cm depth.

The lowest lid is about 6cm depth. It's good for the main dish. 
Havn't used it yet, but I can't wait to do it.

 I love the lock. No more rubber bands :)

Just bento

I can hardly put oll the stuff I want to my one tier Urara box. I don't like the idea to use two diferen boxes, but since my lower Urara tier was damaged by hot pan, I have no other option. At least I ordered a new box. Can't wait to get it. In my colculations it should reach me in 3 more days :) 
Now I'm trying not to forget my vegies and go back on using rice. It hard for me to boil them perfectly. Usualy they get to sticky, or still are raw. I just can't stand uncooked rice....
