Hubby brings his own lunch to office 4 days a week, as a healthier alternative to 'outside' food and also because he dreaded having to drive out in search of food during lunch hour when the weather is really hot. He has a really long lunch break on Fridays, so he eats out with colleagues or friends.
I have been packing sandwiches for him for the past year.
At first he said, "I can eat sandwiches every day" .
Then it became "I wouldn't mind eating something else other than sandwiches".
Finally he said, "I don't like plain sandwiches".
So after a few months of packing shepherd's pie, pasta, hotdogs and whatever else I could prepare in the early morning rush, I saw some photos on the internet that gave me some ideas on how to make lunch more interesting.
Presenting... (drumroll)...Bento lunch!
It started with 2 simple ham sandwiches and some nori seaweed |
The next day, I added some hair made of cheese and eyes cut out of ham and seaweed |
A big hint to hubby that I wouldn't mind a new set of wheels (wink!) |
Baked pasta with hardboiled eggs |
Baked pasta with heart shaped sausages |
Smiley ham and cheese sandwiches |
Ham sandwiches looking rather confused. |
My tools: nori punch, cutters and tweezers |
Needless to say, it brightened up hubby's lunch time in the office :)
