Lion Bento

I had a Grilled Chicken Italian Sausage, Corn on the Cob, and Brown Rice Couscous leftover from dinner last night, and I was pondering how I could put them into a bento and make them cute. I wanted to do something with them that I haven't done before so I was looking up different animals I could make with sausages, but I wasn't having much luck. I was thinking of maybe doing a sun because I can the bright yellow corn on the cob that I could use... but then it hit me, I could make Lions.

I could make a big mane from the sausage, and I could make a smaller made using the corn on the cob. And then I decided to make onigiri with the brown rice couscous and turn that ino a lion as well. So I made a Lion Family!

• Brown Rice Couscous (Garlic & Herb)
• 1/4 Corn on the Cob
• 2 Blackberries
• 2 Cherries
• Green Peas
• Grilled Italian Chicken Sausage
• 1/2 Cherry Tomato
• Cheese and Black Foodsafe Marker details, and two chocolate sprinkles for eyes.

 I love how this came out. I don't know why I didn't try this before. This must be the King Lion.

And here are the smaller Lions. Maybe they are the Lionesses hunting the Giraffe and the Monkey.
