Roasted Veggies - 230 calorie bento



I had a lot of different bits of vegetables taking a lot of 'real estate' in the fridge, so I gathered them up and roasted them all. Now I have to go veggie shopping again. I made enough of the vegetable concoction for dinner, bento lunches for two and maybe a snack.

Bento Content:


  • Roasted Potatoes (53)

  • Roasted Vegetable Medley (60)

  • Champagne Grapes (33)

  • Mini Pitas (84)

Total Bento: 230 calories

Grilled Salami & Roasted Potatoes - 233 calorie bento


I found the cutest Beef salami - only 4 ounces each and perfect for bento portions! One serving is 2 ounces and since the whole thing is so small, the slices seem like a whole lot! I grilled them and they were quite tasty! To the roasted potatoes I added Turmeric - hence the yellow hue on them. Those were leftovers from dinner.

Bento Content:
  • Toasted Potatoes (71)
  • Grilled Beef Salami rounds (110)
  • Blistered Grape Tomatoes with Herbs de Provence (28)
  • Raw Carrot rounds (17)
  • Rommaine Lettuce (7)

Total Bento : 233 calories

Chicken Mix & Carrots & Mash - 209 calories Bento


I made the chicken out of a leftover roasted skinless & boneless chicken breast. I sliced up sweet onions, mini peppers and a few black olives. I added a teensy bit of red wine - just a tiny dash.


I steamed the carrots with granulated garlic, made some mashed potatoes and baked in the oven.


Very fast, very tasty!
