That Mixed Rice

This time, I used two separate boxes.  The cloth I used to wrap up my bento is really cute, isn't it!? Perfect for summer time~ I love mixed rice! For this bento, I already had pan-fried salmon so I flaked a piece up into tiny bits and then mixed it with cooked rice and nori seasonings. It was delicious! My other favorites include adding soybeans, mixing it up with boiled egg yolks, as well as cooking the rice itself with chopped carrots and peas and part soy sauce-water mixture. There's tons of variations out there; why not try spicing up your own rice in your bento next time with these variations!? That being said, in this bento.... Proteins : Salmon, mayo-tuna mix, kimchi clam stir fry Vegetables : Kabocha pumpkin, cauliflower, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, snap peas Rice : Short grain, brown, mixed with nori seasonings and salmon Dessert : A slice of a ripe plum and sweet simmered beans

The dried Jackfruit

Don't know if you could see it but the dried fruit is between the orange slice and the beans. Dried fruit = instant dessert. My dad brought some home from a recent visit to Vietnam. Not very good for your teeth but they are just too yummy! Enjoy~!! Proteins : Pan fried salmon (non-salted), Braised white fish (very salted), Boiled egg with yolk. Vegetables : Steamed Broccoli, Cauliflower, Cherry tomatoes, a Sugar snap pea, Potato salad (cucumbers and carrots), Pickled ginger, Soybeans, Simmered kabocha, Lettuce leaves. Rice : Short grain, brown, mixed with half of a boiled egg yolk and nori furikake seasoning. Dessert : Sweet simmered beans, dried fruits (jackfruit and mandarin), and a navel orange slice.
