Picnic Bento

Posted on July 11, 2012 by eclecticlamb

My 13 year old niece and I planned this bento. I am proud of her concept and planning. She even created a grocery list for me!

Picnic blanket: rice and red pepper

Grass: snow peas

Watermelon: red pepper, chocolate sprinkles, green bean (rind)

Blue Cooler: apple coated with lemon juice and blue sugar

Ants: chocolate sprinkles

Jam Tarts: raspberry and grape

I used a wooden berry basket and added a wooden cover (my husband cut some craft wood to fit). I took apart a dollar store basket to create a handle. My handle is temporary but you can add a staple to make it more permanent.

    I love the “ants” to make the picnic bento more real! The jam tarts are “calling my name!” You & our niece did a great job!
