I have talked about this before and that is to use colourful items when creating the bento. When I mean colourful I do not mean colourful faces of Nintendo characters or anything like that. If the food looks colourful one is more likely to give it a taste and enjoy the meal. This is very important in getting a 2 year old to eat his food.

Carrots are health and adds colour to the bento, so you see it a lot in the bentos. I am not fully sure how my wife created the dish, so will ask her for the recipe.
