Snowflake Egg Bento

Hello Everyone!

I am so sorry I haven't been able to post lately - I am busy juggling many things, including continuing flute (best. instrument. ever.)! I was so excited to be able to make this bento since I hadn't made one in a while. This one accompanied me with Tyler Perry's Madea's Big Happy Family. I know I messed up my tradition of kyarabens and movies but how do you do Madea?

Anyway this is the bento!


The container the egg is sitting on is a wooden bamboo container that I just got for my bento inventory (yay!!). 

To do this bento, I toasted a chapathi (Indian wheat bread) and broke it into edible pieces (I toasted for too long though, so it came out really crispy), and placed it with a side of yogurt. 

I put my side dish, a spinach and cottage cheese curry, on lettuce and put that in my new container. I placed orange cherry tomatoes inside along the edges.



For the egg, I cooked it sunny side up and then cut it with a cookie cutter. I punched out my laughing smiley face with my nori puncher and put it on top (I was inspired by the tutorial at kwbentodiary http://kwbentodiary.blogspot.com/ - thank you so much Karenwee!).

As always, thank you for reading my blog!
