I julienned some raw carrots, cucumber and turnip ("Bangkuang" - read in Malay). For added flavor, I fried a slab of Salmon and mashed it up, mixed them all up with the raw vegetables and stuffed them all into some Abura-age. I wanted to give #2 some chili sauce but she declined.
Below, you can see the julienned vegetables and mashed Salmon.
Here is the stuffed Abura-age close up.
I fried some Tamagoyaki and added some wakame and bits of pickled Chinese turnip ("Choy Poh" - read in Cantonese or "Chai Por" - in Hokkien). See the close up in this picture below.
The complete Bento box contains of 2 pieces of stuffed Abura-age with mashed Salmon and veggies, some blanched baby French beans, Tamagoyaki fried with pickled Chinese turnip and wakame, an orange and some Hijiki simmered with carrots (frozen stock).
A bland variety of flavors with an orange to save the day!

I thought of something. Do you read justbento? She's got a lot of great tips and she talks about healthy/nutritious bento all the time, along with calorie counts (approximations) of each meal. Check it out www.justbento.com :)
