brown burgers

I like using beef in the bentos because there's a good variety of recipes I can use beef in. But it's so...brown! I like for my bentos to be nice and colorful, but the beef on top of the grains are just so blah, lol.

Anyways, this bento is hamburger cut up (I use all-natural frozen patties that I fry up just before I make the bentos.) I used boiled red potatoes to complement the burger. The potatoes are drizzled with olive oil and lightly sprinkled with salt. The adult bentos have onions that I fried just a little too long in the beef fat. I need to watch more carefully so we just get a light glaze on them.

I had to use the broccoli or else I was going to lose it, so broccoli in today's bento. It worked well and gave a good color. At Curtis' request I steamed it, which brought out the vivid green even more.

My favorite fruity friend watermelon rounded this bento out. I loooooove watermelon and it was very good =D So nothing fancy today, but it was good and filling.
