Totally cheated. I bought dim sum nite sale at asian supermarket. All I cooked was the egg. Cut some veg, there you go, bento to go.
- bbq pork bun, fried fish cake roll, pot sticker, stewed egg.
Supermarket Bento February 28, 2007
Stewed Egg and Chicken – Onigiri – Dumplings February 27, 2007
I haven’t got a chance to upload these.
Left: I made this last week, for dinner and bento menu the next week. Fish and shrimp dumplings, tuna salad onigiri, salmon burger.
Right: This is what I had for today’s lunch. Stewed egg and chicken in soy sauce, salmon furikake rice, and fresh veg and fruits.
Curry hash beef and baked tomatoes February 20, 2007
Lunch today: hash beef with curry flavor, baked tomatoes, and crab imitation omelete.
I make the beef the night before. I use garlic, onions, beef, potatoes, peas. Seasoning: cumin, turmeric, salt and pepper.
The tomatoes, add a bit olive oil, salt, mozarella cheese. I prep it at night, in the morning, I pop it in my toaster oven, and baking it in the oven just until the cheese melted.
Stir Fry – Hot and Sour February 12, 2007
I made Hot and Sour Soup for dinner. For tomorrow’s lunch, I am using almost the same ingredients as the hot ‘n sour for a change with least effort.
Bamboo shoots, ear mushrooms, celery (cuz I have to clean up my fridge), carrots, chicken, everything sliced thinly.
Marinate chicken in soy, sake (cooking wine) and sugar, at least for 30 min. Heat oil, stir fry chicken first, take it out. Stir in all the rest, add chicken back in, add 1 tbs sake, 1 tbs water, 1 tsp chinese vinegar, and soy to taste. If it’s to dry, just add bit water.
A little break – I guess February 9, 2007
I’ve been sick for two days, got the flu, so I called in sick. I feel bad every time I do that, it feels like cutting school. I grew up in culture where people expected to show up at school/work, unless you’re so sick that you can’t get out of bed. I learned later that it is better for me to stay at home then spreading germs to my co-workers. While staying at home, I keep guessing, whose germ at the office that got me sick 
Anyway, so no bento, probably until Monday, or Tuesday. I really don’t feel like doing anything now.
Tamago, Cutlet, and Burger February 8, 2007
L: omelete, konbu, burger, check out my cute mayo container.
R: omelete, spagheti w/beef and mushrooms, basa cutlet.
I am home sick today. I used to force myself to go to work even though I am sick. Now I’ve learned it is better to stay home than spreading the germs to your co-workers
I hate being at home, alone, and sick, so boring. In other way, it gives time to upload my last two bentos. I’ve been busy adjusting at my new job, I haven’t had timeto do blogs.
First of the month February 3, 2007
January definitely flies. First day of the month, bento for my hubby a bit more to his liking, lot’s of meat.
- mini burgers, pork and cabbage wontons in sa cha sauce, fried egg, and steamed veg.
I didn’t bring mine today for my boss were buying us lunch for my goodbye lunch. I’m moving to another dept starting next week. So sad..
