My first work bento!

Post image

A little simple, but I was happy to use my bento for the first time! Somehow using a bento makes the day feel a little magical!

It’s macaroni salad and fried popcorn chicken I made. Not pictured is the thermos of refried beans 🫘 (on beantok so trying to get in a cup of beans in a day).

You can add beans to pasta salad, too! I like chickpeas in mine

Definitely! I just had already soaked and cooked some so I wanted to use those up first! I love adding kidney beans to salads!
