Anybody fans of Betty Boop? Today's lunch bento inspired by Betty Boop keychain showed above ^_^ I didn't made the full body but half length of her body :D Honestly, I cannot remember her cartoon series.... so I Google search youtube to show it to my daughter.
Here is the close up Betty Boop image ^_^ I draw Betty Boop image at baking paper then scissor cut together with nori seaweed. And stick on chicken ham with some mayonnaise. Earrings made of cheese and the red part, I used crabstick.
For side dishes: Honey Soy Sauce Chicken Drumettes (recipe from JustOneCookbook) Due to early morning and time consuming, I used airfryer to cook instead of follow the recipe :p Broccoli, crabstick & chicken (balance cut out)

Every Tuesday my daughter needs less food for lunch so I'm making sandwiches ^_^ The simple way is to use sandwich cutter!! Quick and easy so Panda theme will be perfect for today cause I want to made cute Panda quail egg too :)
Here is my close up Panda quail egg ^_^ I insert ribbon pick to secure both quail eggs together then I add nori for Panda details. To beautify the pandas, I add red & yellow capsicum as belt. I use small capsicum so that I cut a ring shape.
For Cutezcute Panda sandwiches, I spread tuna mixed with capsicum and mayo for extra taste. The panda sauce container, I add some kiwi fruits :)
I hope you will like today simple Panda theme bento. Happy Tuesday!
