These are some examples of bento lunches I have packed for my husband. In the one pictured above, we have rice with black sesame (the yellow stuff is daikon pickles), hamburger with a bit of corn tucked in beside it, salad, fresh veggies and kinpira.
This bento has some leftover niku-jaga, hijiki onigiri and lots of salad with fresh vegetables.
This bento has rice mixed with ume boshi and seaweed, salad, red bell pepper, tofu nuggets, tamago-yaki rolled omelet, carrots and dipping sauce.
Again we have sesame rice, along with teriyaki salmon, simmered soybeans and salad.
The lunches are easiest to make if you plan to have some leftovers. I try to do this as often as possible, but sometimes in the mornings I find myself just boiling some eggs (like today for instance). Tonight I was a bit more prepared and set aside some leftovers to reheat and arrange for my husband in the morning. In addition to the main bento, I often pack a separate container of sliced apple as well as some sort of snack (ie cookie) and a thermos of soup and a thermos of coffee. It is all surprisingly compact...
Happy lunching! ^_^
