Great Bento Idea: A colorful vegetarian bento from the Netherlands

After a few weeks of charaben, we’re back to a sensible everyday bento for this week’s Great Bento Idea. That doesn’t mean it’s not attractive and colorful though!

This is from Gnoe, a Dutch bentoist who blogs at Graasland [2] in both English and Dutch. She’s a lacto-ovo vegetarian, and keeps detailed records of her weekly menus on her site - a great help for anyone who wants to follow her eating style. The featured bento here - a lacto-ovo-vegetarian one of course - is Middle Eastern inspired, and has plenty of color, to as Gnoe says “keep the dark November days back”. The red beet hummus looks really interesting. There’s even a cute mini-Babybel cheese character in the back! Read more about this bento on Graasland [3].

(If you want your idea to catch my eye by the way, the best way is to join the Just Bento [4] or Just Bento Bento Gear [5] groups on Flickr and post them there. Don’t forget to post a link to your blog in the description if you have one.)
