Soph’s Bento Diary

A few years ago, I started making bento boxes to have fun and eat better.
Today, I share my food for thought via @sophsbentodiary on Instagram.

Lettuce/turkey/cheese roll-ups ⭐️ new recipe by @i__cj__i (he originally used ham but I don’t want to eat his lunch meat)
miso. butter. noodles. 🍜 like a japanese carbonara, one of my simplest recipes - just toss grocery store spaghetti, 1:1 miso + unsalted butter, and a splash of pasta water. top with green onions. ✨ for easy weeknight dinner, prep it beforehand. boil
another breakfast sandwich - bacon, swiss, gouda, spring greens and a fried egg with a little strawberry jam on toasted bread. (in other words, a smash hit)
croque madame breakfast sandwich πŸ₯ͺ 🍳 been making a lot of these in the air fryer lately... just ham swiss and a fried egg on cheap white bread greased with a little lard and broiled for 6 minutes. comes out perfect every time!
πŸš— road trip breakfast πŸ›£οΈ mom and I headed down to WV last week to celebrate poppy's birthday. brought a bacon egg and cheese with the most beautiful butter lettuce. had a hard time keeping certain paws off of it...
lemongrass gin: my first attempt at a cocktail recipe! πŸ‹ 🌾 gin on the rocks with some homemade lemongrass simple syrup and a twist of lime. i thought it was pretty nice! gin is my favorite drink...
