More fabulous food pics from the last 6 months

Turns out I have a LOT of old food pics.  And I like flooding the inboxes of my few followers. :-)  Don't you all feel special?


Fall Bento: Carrots, Celery, Dip, and snack mix of Teddy Grahams,
Rainbow Goldfish, and Harvest Mix candy corn



Spice cake cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and cinnamon chocolate leaves.



Spa-Day Breakfast: Chicken Sausage and sauteed peppers
with garlic cream sauce and fresh biscuits (I think...)
(Dante decided that I was too stressed out and planned a
spa-day for me.  It was quite awesome.  Love you, Dante!)



Spa-day dessert (by special request)
Chocolate raspberry pastries.  Puff pastry with sauce
made from fresh berries and dark chocolate.  Mmmmmm.



Honey pork heaven: Pork loin (I think) with honey mustard,
Prosciutto, and bacon. with pepper and parmesan pasta.



Homemade pasta (made with the Kitchen Aid pasta roller set
Dante got me for Christmas), Tilapia, and roasted asparagus with a
fried egg and low-fat hollandaise.

Bento #17- Mini-Burgers and Pasta

Pre-emptive post!!  woo hoo! 

I actually made our Bentos tonight, AHEAD OF TIME!  Go me!! So I'm posting them now,  instead of letting the pics sit on my camera for a few days first.  ^.^  They're not by a long shot my most impressive bentos (I think those may have been my first ones... decided to peak early!), but I'm hoping they'll be tasty (I havent actually tried the pasta yet.  Already brushed my teeth.  oops!).

Mine: In one of my new Hello Kitty bowls. 
A little bit of Zoo-shaped pasta with a mini-burger and Chopped Tomatoes.


Dante's: The same, in a tupperware.

So... yeah.  All the regular bento boxes were dirty and I didn't feel like doing dishes at 1 AM, so... Dante's is in a tupperware.  It was either that or Hello Kitty. 

The pasta is Zoo-shaped pasta from World Market (super cute!) tossed with a little bit of truffle-infused olive oil and ground Tuscan seasoning blend, with chopped tomatoes on top.  The Mini-burgers are just what they sound like.  I seasoned up some burger last time I wanted Chaos tots and made 12 mini patties from a pack of extra-lean burger.  The way I make burgers, they've got lots of chopped garlic, green onions, seasonings, Worchestershire (sp?) sauce, and Italian bread crumbs.  They're very tasty, if I do say so myself.

Anywho, Have a happy Monday and a fantabulous lunch!
