Baby's bento - pretty simple tonight. Two-bean chili, chunky cheddar slices, and Wasa light crisps (which worked surprisingly well with my metal heart cutter). The little chick seasoning container is just for visual appeal and my little trick to get her to sit in her highchair. ;)
My seven year old was thrilled with his "Pokemon" organic PB & J on wheat (gingerbread cookie cutter)! And hubs and I are thrilled to see the difference that bentos are helping to make in his eating habits (well, that and seeing the computer generated images on, "Honey We're Killing the Kids"). He's always been very texture sensitive, so fruits and veggies can be a challenge. Tonight he ate every morsel of his organic grapes (Pokeberries ;) and organic strawberry shooting stars (cut with small metal flower cutter). YAY!

Just curious, when you cut food into shapes, do you save the edges, throw them out, or just nibble them yourself? Bento look so cute, but I don't want to waste food just making it cute, ya know?
