I mentioned that I'd bought some packet to make Ebi Curry Spaghetti (ebi meaning shrimp) and I tried it out today. I ate what didn't fit in the box and it was pretty good!
The whole package according to the back is 2 servings at 140 calories and 1 gram of fat, which strikes me as a little odd but I guess since the serving of noodles is so small, that would be why. Whatever, something that low fat I can definitely live with!! Still, it comes out to 4 points for lunch. Not too bad, but it means I'll have to eat a pretty strict Core dinner tonight.
It was pretty easy to make, took about I dunno 10 minutes? That was probably because I sliced and cut the carrot flowers though. As you can see, there's broccoli to go with it. It looked pretty plain so I chopped up some carrot really fine to sprinkle on top. I have one more package in the fridge along with the rest of the shrimp, so maybe I'll try it out on the kids this weekend. ^_^

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that I love your blog! It's so great to see a great bento blog from Hawaii! :) I love the carrots you did with this bento, would you be able to post a tutorial or maybe let me know how you were able to make the cute flowers? ^_^
Hi Jenny!
Thanks for the nice comment! The carrot flowers are actually done with veggie cutters. I found them once at Shirokiya and they were pretty pricey at 7.99 but came with 2 large flowers (1 daisy, 1 sakura) and 2 small flowers. I slice the carrots and press the cutter down just like a cookie cutter and that's it! :)
