Bento box for kids

Step 1/4

• 200 g cheese
• 10 red radishes

• cutting board
• knife

Cube cheese. Clean red radishes without removing the stem to create mice. Use a small sharp knife to cut out eyes. Make small slits for the ears and place the small radish rounds left over from cutting the eyes into the slits.

Step 2/4

• 80 g mozzarella
• 10 cherry tomatoes
• 4 chives

• toothpicks

For the caterpillars, halve mozzarella balls and cherry tomatoes. For the head, slice pieces of chives, poke small holes in the head end, and stick chives into holes for antennas. Use a toothpick to poke holes for eyes. Arrange on a toothpick, alternating the mozzarella and tomato pieces.

Step 3/4

• 2 apple
• 20 g chocolate

For the crab, halve one apple and cut out the core. Core and cut the other half into thin slices for legs, and cut serrated edges into two slices for the claws. Carve out small holes for the eyes, and stick small pieces of chocolate into the holes. If desired, use toothpicks to hold everything together.

Step 4/4

• 2 tbsp parsley
• 12 chives
• 60 g plain yogurt
• 40 g cream cheese
• salt
• pepper

• lunchbox
• small bowl

Finely chop parsley and chives. Mix herbs with yogurt and cream cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Arrange items in your child’s lunchbox or serve right away.

Enjoy your meal!
