Salmon Onigiri - 364 calorie Bento


I find that Onigiri are very filling. They keep me quite full for hours.

Also, little bits of leftovers are great for filling them. This time I had leftover salmon. I overdid it with a little too much sauce (as you can see), but they were very tasty!


Bento Content:
  • Heart-shaped Onigiri filled with Salmon with furikaki in the red container (186)
  • Julienned Snow Peas (12)
  • Mini Chocolate cookies (50)
  • Date (66)
  • Babybel Light (50)

Total Bento = 364 calories

Cilantro Rice & BBQ Chicken - 241 calorie Bento


I love cilantro and I use it whenever I can. I had a bunch from my terrace 'farm' and I basically took the cilantro with a little bit of sweet onion and buzzed it in the Magic Bullet. Then, I added the mixture to the rice water. I used a flower rice mold.

The broiled tomatoes are the easiest thing ever! Just cut each tomato in half, sprinkle with Oregano and a small dollop of goat cheese and into the broiler until cheese is bubbly. I thought I would have a transport problem with the tomatoes, but they hardly moved.

Bento Content:
  • Leftover BBQ Chicken (140)
  • Cilantro Rice Flower (51)
  • Broiled Campari tomato with Oregano & Goat Cheese (25)
