This bento was a resounding hit with Baby Girl. I gave her some leftover spaghetti and meatballs I made for dinner the night before. This was made from a fantastic recipe by Mark Bittman for Spaghetti and Drop Meatballs With Tomato Sauce, which makes a quick (about 30 minutes) and delicious meal. In addition to being delicious, this recipe also very well written, the steps are laid out in a logical progression, are very easy to follow, and you can actually complete it in the stated prep time, unlike most recipes. I made it pretty much as written, using whole wheat spaghetti and grass fed beef. Anyway, Baby Girl absolutely loved it for dinner and polished off the leftovers in her lunch the next day.
Along with her leftovers, Baby Girl had an apple peanut butter sandwich, some segments of clementine, a spinach cake from the freezer and a couple cubes of cheddar cheese. This bento came back completely empty, so I now felt comfortable to declare the lunch strike officially over!
