muffaletta sandwich

I've come across the amazing Muffaletta Sandwich and was wondering if it's possible to create a brittish/bento/gluten free version!

It just looks amazing!

Just looking at this now is making me really really hungry! Its just my kind of thing, Salami, cheese, olives, salad ect - awesome!

Today my bento is a little dull in comparison:

Salad, tomatoes, cottage cheese and cucumber! Bring on tomorrows Muffaletta!

Cutters

Again today I used my new cookie cutters and I am really pleased with the result!

Instantly my lunch box looks more exciting. :)

Today however I have added some little picks of marinated tofu to add some protein to my lunch. They don't look very pretty but I will experiment to make them look nicer!

Bento delight!

Today I made an excellent looking bento even if I do say so myself.

I bought some cookie cutters over the weekend and cut my sandwiches up into people and star shapes. It looked very good.

I also separated my carrots off with fake grass which as I mentioned before I find very useful.

Enjoy!

Cookie Dough

I've just started baking for the first time.

I'm not naturally good at it and to make matters worse I am gluten free which means that baking becomes something slightly different and perhaps more meaningful!

I've just found this really good biscuit dough recipie on the Good Food website and thought that I would share:

I don’t seem to be doing very well with my bento boxes at the moment!

I am making them but they look the same each day which is really dull. I defiantly need to get my act together and get up early to make some pretty things.

Fail

Sadly again today I failed with the bento making.


Sleeping seems to be taking priority! Not a good thing as I will have to nip over to the supermarket to get myself some lunch on my break.

Tomorrow I will make a bento. Tomorrow.
