Breakfast à la Bento

DH surprised me by coming home for dinner last night.  We got to spend a lovely evening together and he brought me flowers!  Does it get any better?  Nope.  :)  But that does leave him with an already made bento and nothing to talk about this morning.  Am I sad, no.  He's a sweetie!

So what can I talk about today?  Well . . .   how about the most important meal of the day?  Do you wonder what I serve for breakfast in my house?  That's our topic.

This is only Greek yogurt and fresh fruit.  What makes it so "bento"?  Well, you could pack it into a bento easily (a smaller bento than I use for lunch).  You could also set it up in advance and cover with plastic wrap.  But, the part I like is that it is deliberately pretty (if I do say so myself).  It took just moments to slice the fruit and arrange it nicely - and I made 2 of these this morning. 

It's also a whole lot healthier than Eggo Waffles, a breakfast sandwich, or cereal.  The Greek yogurt is packed full of protein and calcium.  Fruit always goes down easily. 

Well, that's all I've got this morning.  I hope you have a wonderful day!

Oh wow, I just discovered this blog and concept! Love it! I too try with presentation during "real" meals, but I should totally make more of an effort for DH's lunches... good stuff! :) (elizabee from FE)

Elizabee/Amy, thanks for popping in! :) What a wonderful surprise!

Please come back and look at lunches as I go. I pack bentos every day of the school week and am trying to make picnic bentos.
