The other day, I had a kitchen disaster. I didn't set anything on fire. Nothing expensive shattered. But, it was a disaster all the same. I had made chicken cacciatore. We had a lovely dinner and then I saved the rest for another meal. When I went to warm the chicken, I pulled out some of the sauce to toss with pasta. Then, I went to pop the rest into the microwave. The only problem: I missed. How do you miss? I have no clue! I think the container was moist along the sides. Maybe my hands slipped. It was terrible! I dropped chicken cacciatore all over my kitchen floor. What a mess! I had guests coming for coffee and a meeting at my house and the floor and I were covered with dinner. With 30 minutes to spare before people started to arrive, I was in a bit of a state. What did I do about dinner? We had Subway. DH purchased sandwiches while DD and I cleaned up the mess and I cried a bit.
Remember that somewhere in the story I had pulled out some of the sauce? Well, I salvaged that into this bento.
Layer 1: Veggies and cheese, leek quiche, and fresh fruit: plum and orange slices, and grapes.

Layer 2: Chicken cacciatore sauce mixed with noodles and topped with a piece of roast chicken from the freezer. The whole thing is topped with rather a lot of Parmesan. I over did it. Considering the rest of the disaster, a little extra Parmesan isn't so terrible. :)
