Antipasta Bento

So we got the Antipasta plate at Villa San-Juilette winery the other weekend. And I simply must re-create it for a bento.

Salami and olives, cheese, in this case Brie, with tomatoes (my addition), dried fruit, nuts, in this case walnuts and peanuts. All in my lock n load box. I even had a passerby compliment my "lunchbox."

My First Blogoversary

This four-square box is a Lock-n-Lock which to me sounds an awful lot like lock and load but no matter.

No those are not black olives.

I made these cute little meat pie purses filled with cooked chicken and mashed potatoes. They work really well in lunches. They can be eaten warm or cold in just a couple of bites. Super yummy!

Yes they are black grapes supposedly seedless, but they do have something hard inside that I have to spit out.

Watercress with baby carrots (true baby carrots) and Juliet tomatoes from my garden.

Cottage cheese, that I tend to eat immediately when I get to work.

An Asian pear - lordy I love Asian pears!
