( Slow Cooked Korean Style Short Rib Soup )

Alterations:
- Closer to 7.2 lbs before trimming fat
- Slow cooked on high for 8 hours instead of 6 hours
- Used thinner noodles
- Boiled noodles per package directions rather than soaking

( The lighting on his is better )

It was so hot today we just couldn't eat anything hot.
I normally like to use my Nokorimono desu ga bento box for this because it's not microwave safe and this meal doesn't need microwave, but I remembered I never finish the meal because it's too big. So I thought I'd give my soup bento bowl another day in the spotlight (even though it's microwave safe) ^_^

( Thai Chicken Wrap with Spicy Peanut Sauce )

My alterations: I used spearmint tea instead of fresh mint and left the skin on the cucumber.

Smoked salmon soba, strawberries and fuji apple slices. I forgot to include the salad dressing bottle filled with balsamic vinegar in the picture. In the carrot spreaders is peanutty chocolate spread, recipe below.

*edit*

Not pictured: I made a bento for him (looks just like mine, but without the carrots) and put the marble cake he brought home for me in my penguin mini bento.

( Peanutty Chocolate Spread )

For the peanut spread, I did not use the plain yogurt because I could not find plain soy yogurt and I can't eat regular yogurt. It still tastes good; I imagine it's just not the same consistency as the recipe.
