    I love this thread its so pretty and colourful and I am sure any non vegan looking at these packed lunches would have their opinions of vegan food changed!
    Personally I never eat pakced lunches...but I still commend this idea!

    How about mixing it with plenty of grated mushrooms, sage and onion stuffing mix, chopped nuts, vegetable stock, minced onions ... and baking into a loaf in a bread tin. Have it hot as part of a roast dinner, or sliced cold to go in with your bento.

    Oooooh I got introduced to these bento box things you've all been going on about today. Went with Pavot and Bryzee to the Japan Centre in London, those boxes are so cute...and great for packed lunches. I think one of those babies may be going on the weddding gift list...if john lewis do em!

    I don't spend that long on them...honest. Maybe half an hour. I tend to cook up a bit more stuff for a meal, and then freeze small portions for later lunchboxes.

    Somehow I'm not very good at making interesting Bentos in terms of colour variation

    Top: oatcakes, banana & date chutney in the elephant pot, cherry tomatoes
    Bottom: strawberries, carrot

    Yeah, I'm using it for salad ingredients, as that's what I eat for lunch, I also take an avocado w/ me and some roast capsicum dip, but I take 'em separately, the avo I cut when I have lunch, not in the morning.

    MY LAPTOP LUNCH BOX HAS ARRIVED

    It is however at my mum's house 40miles from where I live so will have to wait until Saturday to pick it up. BUT YAY! I made her open it and have a good look. She now wants one for each of the kids.
