You want a simple and quick meal for your bento? Try Fried Potatoes with Bacon and Onions. The wife has been making this for our son’s bento as it’s easy and quick. The funny thing is that I been having this since I was my son’s age. My father would cook up the same thing just without the bacon as we did not usually have pork in the house.
