Menu: Nikudon (pork on rice) with sliced cabbage, Simple omelet, Steamed broccoli, Tomato

Mandarin mikan for dessert

The first kindergarten bento of the year starts with this blog’s most popular recipe, nikudon.

My daughter asked me this morning not to peel the mikan skin. She said, “I’m four (years old) now and can do it on my own!”

Well, a great start of the new year, I’d say😉
