Servings: 1

Prep Time: 30 min.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices whole wheat or white bread
  • 2 tsp. softened butter
  • 3 slices ham or favorite deli meat
  • 2 radishes, sliced crosswise
  • 6 slices cucumber
  • 1 baby carrot, sliced crosswise
  • 1/4 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup gelatin dessert

Supplies

  • Geometric-shaped cookie cutter
Tip: You don't have to buy a bento box. Get creative and use whatever container you have on hand, from a sturdy cardboard box to your favorite piece of Tupperware/plastic container. You can use cupcake liners, cut pieces of cardboard as dividers, or even small ramekins to hold various food items. Even vegetables look adorable in a bento box! Try it out, maybe your picky eater will forget she's eating veggies.

Directions

  1. Step 1

    Spread a thin layer of softened butter on one side of each bread slice. Place the ham or desired deli meat on top of the butter side up of one slice of bread and make flat. Place the remaining slice of bread on top, buttered side down. Press to secure.

  2. Step 2

    Cut the sandwich into as many geometric shapes as possible using small cookie cutters or a paring knife. Arrange the small sandwiches in a section in your bento box.

  3. Step 3

    Toss the sliced vegetables together and arrange them in a small cup, then add them to another section in your bento box.

  4. Step 4

    Remove gelatin dessert from the cup and slice into 1/2-inch pieces. Cut gelatin into 1-inch stars with your small cookie cutter. Toss with the blueberries and add to your bento box.
