Happy Summer! We had a great time being lazy and catching up with friends for our first week of summer break. This week is A-chan's first summer camp of the year at a nearby Nature Center. Since I was pretty sure that lunches would be jumbled around at camp, I packed her bento very tightly with extra lettuce and kept the cuteness to a minimum.
In the bento: Two miniature homemade vegetarian hamburgers, lemon slices, carrot flowers, two onigiri, steamed broccoli, a cherry tomato and two picks of cheddar cheese. On the side is a container of ketchup for the hamburgers.
This was an extremely quick bento to put together. I already had rice made and waiting in the fridge to be microwaved and made into onigiri. The triangular mold made it easy and speedy. The mix for the hamburgers was also waiting in the fridge - I formed them into patties and cooked them in a small pan with a tiny bit of sesame oil.

I have been wondering how to "shape" left over rice. In addition to the microwave can it be heated on the stove or in the rice maker?
