I can’t believe that it is December already! Only a few more weeks until Christmas and then New Years is right around the corner. Time is flying by way too fast!
Today’s bento is inspired by Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. Along with the reindeer onigiri are garlic shrimp, sauteed Brussels sprouts and carrots, a mini apple, and fresh pineapple.

Here is another Christmasy bento with a simple snowman and snow-woman. The bento also contains fried chicken, a mini apple, and sauteed Brussels sprouts and carrots.

The kitties are made from a combination of brown and white rice, and their noses are actually just picks. I thought that it made them look like there were butterflies resting on their noses. The rest of the bento includes homemade chicken nuggets with a honey & mustard dipping sauce, a mini apple, butterfly carrots, and fresh pineapples.
The Rudolph bento is posted on What’s for Lunch Wednesday!











So creative! I love the little snowmen, and the bone picks for the reindeer’s antlers. Happy Christmas, Susan!
A Christmas parade of sweet bentos, like an early present! Am in love with the kitty onigiri with butterfly accents, so artful and dear. Have a great weekend, Susan!

Thank you everyone for the sweet comments!
Love them all! I just went overboard buying picks on eBay, so hopefully I’ll be able to make stuff half as cute as yours! (I’m far sloppier and lazier, so I settle for a lot less!)
Rudolph is a cutie! Love it Susan, and hope your holiday season is off to a jolly start : )
I posted a link of your reindeer bento on http://www.cutefoodforkids.com Hope it’s ok.
Happy New Year
