Santa bento

So in the spirt of Christmas I wanted to make a colourful Santa bento.

Menu: rice with ham and cheese Santa, chicken with Ginger and shallots, coleslaw, taro hashbrowns and capsicum and carrot sticks with mayo.









Landrin wanted his Santa to have a goatee like him where I tried for a more traditional beard. Since I don't eat processed cheese I went with tasty cheese slices, it took the food colouring well.

When I saw taro at the local supermarket I brought some with no idea what to do with it, but lastly I enjoy turning all root vegtables into hashbrowns. The taro hashbrowns are quite good!

With the last bit of rice left over I made onigiri, cream cheese and ham flavoured. I made two with the left overs but landrin said he had too much food, and I only needed one.. So Shadowreaper became my test case, he was not sure but after a bite he said it worked well~

  1. Roughly how long does it take you to prepare a box, usually?

    Both of them look extremely tasty!

  2. A normal bento and dinner will take me an hour.
