Little Piggies and Spaghetti Carbonara Bento

I thought of stopping bento for awhile as my gal is on a food strike, but she is still willing to take fruits as after school tea. However, my boy has a long day at school today, and he will be very hungry after his taekwondo class. Thus, I fixed some spaghetti carbonara for both of them, and hopefully my gal won’t reject her food.

My gal used to love wieners, but she’s been rejecting it for days. :P But I shall try my luck and see if she’ll take the wiener, if I made cut one into little piggies.


I cut the mini wiener into smaller pieces.

 


Cut 2 ovals for the noses. Gently cut out the tiny circles on the noses. You may use a straw, if you don’t have the right size of cutter.

 


Cut a small piece of wiener into tiny triangles.

 


Then, pin the triangles to the wieners as piggy’s ears.

 

Besides mini wiener and spaghetti, there are rambutans, persimmon and mango in their bentos too.

Pretty simple huh? :)

    Ellena, thanks. :)

    Spunkz, it was a Carl’s puncher, with an angel and a small heart. I used the hearts as eyes. :)

    Shi-chan, she ate one piggy, and some spaghetti, one rambutan, and dropped her bento on the floor. LOL! It was an accident, so i gave some of my fruit share to her. I guess it’s a phrase, see how long it goes.

    Rachel, thanks! :)
