I came up with this recipe to make something nice with boiled eggs when I didn't have enough time to make an omelet for a bento lunch box.If you make hard boiled eggs at night, you can save a lot of time in the morning. Recipe by Mori

This is one of the colorful garnishes I made.I vary these ham roses by adding cheese or nori seaweed. Flavor the omelette anyway you prefer.The main photo shows an early version of this recipe where I cooked the ham, but the recipe itself describes an easier method where the ham is not cooked.Choose bright pink, thinly sliced ham to make the prettiest roses.Put any extra bits of egg in the middle of the roses. Don't roll up the roses too tightly for the best looking results.If you add 1/2 teaspoon of katakuriko potato starch flour + 1/2 tablespoon of water to the beaten egg, the thin omelette will come out very nicely. For 3 roses. Recipe by Momora

I made this for Halloween bento last year.Feel free to arrange this to your liking. Recipe by Pinkumaimai

Using natural coloring, I strive to make a cute and colorful bento every day.My mother taught me to cook this in a small saucepan, but I think that the soggy eggs become crumbly faster when using a pan.Make sure to cook it through over a low heat to produce the pretty yellow color. Make this in a large frying pan rather than a small saucepan; I feel that you can make this more fine by doing so. Recipe by nazna

When I was little, my mom used to put this in my bento a lot. Recipe by MyT09

I thought up a way to make a cute bento box.If you cut the fringe with relatively shallow cuts, it will look like the flower on the left side of the picture. If you make deeper cuts, it will look more like the flower on the right side. You can make various kinds of flowers depending on the width and length of your cuts. Recipe by Michabi

For my daughter's first field trip! I used salami sausage and the pink came out very nicely.Make sure to stir the omelets while cooking and try to achieve some thickness. Recipe by Tomumaro

After talking with my Nameko-loving-son on how to make the Nameko look more shiny for days, we came up with this.The skewer and chopstick technique used to brown half the egg was a borrowed idea from a summer research project making plastic food.Thanks to this, we were able to make a realistic and cute bento!Be careful not to break the egg white by pressing too hard when shaping the egg!Other than preventing the cup from spilling over, the skewer and chopsticks helps keep the egg from touching the bottom or leaning on the side of the cup. When the egg is touching the cup, it doesn't color the egg very well.If you're making it for a bento, it's better to shave off more (on the back) so it won't stick to the lid. For 1 nameko.

This is my second attempt at making doll shaped rice balls!! I wonder if I improved a little??You can design the dolls however you like . This time I used boiled octopus-shaped wieners . (It's a little healthier ). I've used them in about 10-15 bentos You can also use black soy beans for the eyes . For about 4 small rice balls. Recipe by Gomamaron

I can never come up with anything pink in my repertoire to put in a bento, so I uploaded this for my own records to use next year. Next year, I'll also put in more veggies.Plain rice goes better with the cured ham than sushi rice. I made the green vegetable rice the easy way, by adding green vegetable furikake (rice seasoning).

I wanted to create an easy recipe for this classic sandwich I grew up on.*"Ha, Egg and Lettuce Sandwich".When mashing 1 egg or less, it's much easier to use a fork. If doing 2 or more, a knife would be suitable.You can also use thinly sliced sandwich bread.Be sure to spread on the margarine first and then the mustard, and only coat one side of each slice.You can also slice it into 3 pieces.

Someone asked me how to make these kinds of flower decorations for bento boxes, so I decided to upload the recipe here.This flower would also look just as pretty if you used ham or egg whites instead.If you cut too far into the omelette the petals may come out too far and be hard to gather up. It's best to put in slightly smaller cuts. Recipe by O-sakaya
