Packing lunches and love

Bentoist

Due to work and study, I am on hiatus until mid-2011. In the meantime, it's mostly take-outs and frozen lunches for me.

I'm a FTWM to a little princess and wife to a wonderful man who absolutely loves my bentos! I bento primarily for him and when my princess eventually starts school, I'll bento for her too. Why do I do it? Just because it says, "I love you."

Bento #41: Salmon Mini Quiches & Grapefruit Olive Salsa

I'm craving quiche and made some miniature ones tonight. The mini quiche recipe are posted on Lian@Heart. I also tried Skinny Chef's Grapefruit Olive Salsa recipe. When I first saw that recipe, I knew I had to try it. But with all the distractions going on, I didn't get to it until tonight. And then I overlooked some of the ingredients listed, namely papaya, green onions & cilantro. Oh well, sorry about that Skinny Chef!
But I did create something with leftover honeydew, overly ripe avocado, canned black olives and pink grapefruit. The result was something more fruity than savory, except for the salty canned black olives which add the savory element. I'm pretty happy with the result but then my palate is stranger than most; I'll know tomorrow when my hubby gives me his review.

    Dear Bentoist!
    Greetings!
    Salmon mini quiches are a great idea!
    Seasonal, tasty and lovely to look at!
    BTW next time you see shiso/perilla leaves with your sashimi, "wrap" up the last piece of sashimi inside a leaf and dip it into the soy sauce!
    Cheers,
    Robert-Gilles
