5 Fun Bento Box Lunches
Make lunch a lot more fun with these healthy bento-inspired lunches for kids, teens, foodies, and more.
The Original Happy Lunch
We love bentos because the compartments help with portion control and naturally lead to a healthy variety of foods. Each lunch
is a little puzzle, an elegant surprise. And they don't have to take long to prepare! Here are five make-ahead lunches we
concocted to delight different types of eaters, from little kids to teenagers to cubicle-dwellers.
First, for the little kid who is easily distracted by human lunch buddies, the Buddy Bento Box offers fun, nutritious food to hold his interest.
