Bento Baby!

Since I make Bella's lunch each day, I've been scouting around for ideas to elevate them beyond just cut up fruit and mac-n-cheese. I must admit, it's fun for me to have little comparmentalized containers to fill up for her. Turns out I'm not alone.

Here's what I found:

Cooking Cute
Great recipes for adults and kids. Always photographed well, and recipes included!


Bento Corner
This is a mom in the SF Bay area who documents the bentos she makes for her daughter. Bella can't eat alot of what she makes (Bella's not supposed to have shellfish yet), but her Hello Kitty and animal themed food is great!


Vegan Lunch Box
OK, those of you who know me, know that I am nothing close to a vegan. I have always been fascinated by it though. This woman, who is writing a vegan cookbook, documented her sons lunches for a year. Check out the archives, it is really cool how she tries (and succeeds) at making mainstream food vegan for her son.


Yum!
