As a nutrition student I have to say your lunchboxes look really healthy and balanced. Great job!! I also like the fact that you cook from scratch. 1000 million likes!
I absolutely love and appreciate these videos. I try to always bring my lunch to work - both as a healthier option and to save money - and I get stuck in ruts constantly, to the point where I get absolutely sick of thinking about food and planning what to eat. I'm guessing this is something you hear often. Videos like this definitely provide much needed inspiration - thank you for all of your hard work and putting these ideas together!
While I love japanese bentos some of the ingredients are very hard to find and some bentos are just too high end with cutsy animals and such being made out of the food. But your video made it so easy and yet fun to eat. Thank you for the video.
MUNCHIES!! I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS VIDEO! You’ve been waiting for it and I’ve been working on it! I hope you enjoy these NEW Bento Box lunch ideas, and let me know if you want more by giving this video a THUMBS UP! Can you help me get to 7500 likes? Let me know your favorite lunch time snack!!

Exactly what we needed! We are recommending this video to our students. I am developing Lesson Plans for several short lessons about Japan, "Bento Boxes" being one subject. My wife uses these lessons as motivation for her students, ages 13-17.
Tfw you swear to yourself you're going to make some of these, and then you don't because you're a lazy and weird person and like just watch those videos, ending up REALLY hungry but the fridge is too far away and URGH 😂
Hi Alyssia. I enjoyed this so much as I am perpetually fascinated by bento boxing meals, but also because of your creative ways of shooting/editing the videos (including the music). I am finding your channel to be a great resource for learning to make better choices in the meals I prepare, but when I'm watching, I also find that your cheerful personality and obvious enjoyment of what you are doing lifts my mood when I'm having a tough day. Thanks so much!
***** Thank you so much, I try to do different diet recipes, low carb, low fat and even Keto, will also be adding more vegetarian and Vegan Recipes for people that like doing different methods of dieting.
Everything looks amazing and easy. However' did you know a single rice paper is 238 calories? I looked up all Amazon links and all reasonable but the rice paper. Thank You
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed it! If you liked this video, there's an entire bento series going on this month - a new bento box every day in January :)
"This is fantastic! Everything is so pretty, and colorful, and totally healthy too... ooh, I hope I remember how to make all of th--OH MY GOD YES A PDF" Thank You! :-)
I love these boxes, but one thing i dont like with these that there are so many leftover pieces. I know you can probably eat them, but it seems like a waste to me to cut cucumbers into cute shapes when you can just put them there whole
You can eat the leftover pieces! The shapes are a way to encourage people - both kids and adults - to eat more wholesome fruits and veggies. You can certainly use the leftover pieces in other meals, like chopped salads or salsas :) You're also welcome to eat your veggies whole and not cut them into shapes! Cheers
Just gained a new subscriber! Bought my daughter (in kindergarten) a bentgo box, bentgo bowl and a flat box bag this past week and all I’ve been into are these videos to make her lunches more fun but more importantly, healthier!
These bentos are killer! And you're right, it ain't easy to come up with a whole menu for each lunch, but these bentos all look healthy and gorgeous! Thanks, Alyssia, for the continued dedication and inspiration!
the fact that you made the salt and pepper into a little ying-yang makes me so happy haha ! thanks for posting this ! gunna head to the store asap and grab some of these items for work tomrrow !
Thanks! I don't calculate out the nutrition for these because a lot of people become too concerned with the numbers rather than the fuel. The goal was to provide some ideas and inspiration for people to take these and make them their own, rather than to replicate these exact boxes :) Cheers
Mind Over Munch I totally get the “food for fuel” idea but sugar does not equal fuel ;) strawberries, the chocolate mix, the uncountable plus the raisins is a sugar high lunch. But love the videos! Great inspiration!
Carrie it’s great for someone who comes from a SAD diet, that is true. Much more healthier than the usual options BUT I know a few things about fueling my body since I eat a plant based diet and if I eat that amount of sugar in one sitting it doesn’t fuel me, it leaves me feeling lethargic and after a couple of hours I’ll feel hungry again...I like to space my sugar throughout the day. Fruits are great 👍
Amazing!!!! Your ideas & tips are bringing so much fun & flavours to my life! And I love the fact that these are all recipes that use cheap but yet healthy ingredients!
It's obvious how much work you put into these videos. Absolutely fantastic, and you always have such great and easy ideas! Always appreciate the vegan options, too. Thank you for this!!
I'm glad you enjoyed, thank you!! So glad you're feeling inspired :) If you enjoyed this video, you might also like the bento series that we launched during January - a different bento box every day in the month :)
This is my favorite recipe channel for many reasons but my fave part is the recipe PDFs because they make trying out these new recipes so much less daunting (: Every time I watch a video with 'today's free recipe PDF' its like CHRISTMAS (: a lifesaver for someone like me with ADHD
Omg I am so trying this for my lunch at school! The food looks so good and I can even show this to my family and friends and I can make this lunch for my little brother, they will all love it!
I wish I could give a million thumbs up for this video!!! Thank you for coming up with such creative ideas! I am usually not very impressed with bento box lunch ideas but I can tell that you spent so much time and it really shows!! Thanks again for coming up with such interesting, delicious, and healthy ideas!
Thank you so, so much for this video and your entire channel. I have used a lot of your recipes and lifestyle advice and I went from having issues like high cholesterol and liver enzyme issues, to being completely healthy! And I also dropped a couple pounds too. You're the best! Thank you so much!
Thank you very much for the PDF, this really saves my life sometimes I just cant remember the video or the instructions and since Im from a generation that prefers keeping things on paper this was like a plus after seeing the wonderful video. Cheers!
Ahh! Bento boxes! Love these, Alyssia. I'm a college student trying to eat healthy (avoiding the dining halls), and your videos really help me with budgeting and recipe inspiration!
I love this series, exactly what I was looking for to take to university! The portion sizes are perfect and it feels totally non restrictive, thank you
I'm so happy to hear that! I prefer to approach food and health with a non-restrictive mindset! I want to focus on food as FUEL for my body, rather than counting calories and measuring portion sizes. Thank you so much for your feedback! :)
These are such great ideas!!! Thank you. I'm always looking for ideas for my family to take for lunch. We end up spending too much money on unhealthy food either w/ school lunches or eating out b/c I didn't have anything to take to the office.
Forget the kids, I'll be making these lunches for myself. Thanks.
LOL these lunches are definitely great for all ages!! Glad you enjoyed! :)
Lolllll.... I agree 😂 this should be adult lunch box
가 있다 보니 정말 감사합니다 아미 여러분들이 웃으면 .

I think you’re my spirit animal Pepe

At first I thought you were a hater for some reason but I read it again and you are right xD.
Those chicken salad rice wraps look awesome!

Got a home made Vegan pizza from scratch going up this week, super light in calories and full of taste. :)
Healthy Recipe Channel Ikr!!

This all looked sooooo yummy! I can't wait to go back to University and try these. Thank you for all the time you spent on it! :)

Blew my mind! God gave you a gift of creativity!!!! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed it! If you liked this video, there's an entire bento series going on this month - a new bento box every day in January :)
These all look soooo good!
thank you!
Mind Over Munch love you
how do you make salt and pepper look yen yang or whatever it looks awesome
lol, it's not as exciting as you might think 😝 just a few minutes with a toothpick (and some patience)
"This is fantastic! Everything is so pretty, and colorful, and totally healthy too... ooh, I hope I remember how to make all of th--OH MY GOD YES A PDF"
Thank You! :-)
thank you so much! :)
i love the look of the metal bento boxes it just looks so clean and sleek.
they are appealing for sure! :)
That was a nice twist for the brown rice. Looks sooooo good.
thank you! :)
I love the yin and yang salt and pepper
thanks so much!
Oh my gosh you replied!!!!!
I like your ying-yang salt pepper!
thanks so much!
I love these boxes, but one thing i dont like with these that there are so many leftover pieces. I know you can probably eat them, but it seems like a waste to me to cut cucumbers into cute shapes when you can just put them there whole

You can certainly use the leftover pieces in other meals, like chopped salads or salsas :) You're also welcome to eat your veggies whole and not cut them into shapes! Cheers
Not only that, but the bread, the sweet potato. You shouldn’t be teaching kids to be picky.
Just gained a new subscriber! Bought my daughter (in kindergarten) a bentgo box, bentgo bowl and a flat box bag this past week and all I’ve been into are these videos to make her lunches more fun but more importantly, healthier!
Loved it. Will help me to organise my lunch prep for work.
Great vid! Just a heads up. Theres an error at 5:08
thank you :( So sorry about that. I'm super bummed.
Wait a sec- what's the error? I thought it was just a slightly rushed jumpcut.
Can I just say I appreciate the effort she made by making a yin yang sign in the salt!
haha, thank you very much!
These videos look like so much work to put together. O_O great ideas and amazing video, as always! And thanks for including vegan options
Also, have you ever done a video of how you make your salt and pepper yin yang? It's so cute!
Thank you so much, I appreciate it! I haven't ever done a video for the salt and pep, it's much more boring to watch than you'd think lol!
The Viet Vegan v
INCREDIBLE!! I seriously love these bento videos. We sincerely appreciate the work you put into them.

OMG these are SO creative! Love it
Thank you!
Creative, appealing, healthy, and made with love- fantastic!
Thank you so much for the kind words!! :)

Love the editing style and the Ying Yang in the salt-and-pepper was so cute!
Thank you! I appreciate it!
The green avocado pasta salad was beautiful. Thank you for these ideas! (and you're right, these videos take so much work! Thanks for doing it!)
If only UA-cam would let me give this 2 thumbs up😊👍🏼👍🏼.....
Love you!
I wonder how many calories these bento boxes are, roughly! Looks great! :D
Thanks! I don't calculate out the nutrition for these because a lot of people become too concerned with the numbers rather than the fuel. The goal was to provide some ideas and inspiration for people to take these and make them their own, rather than to replicate these exact boxes :) Cheers
That makes sense! I see that was the main goal and they're great ideas I will definitely try out. :)
I'm just nosey hehe.
Mind Over Munch I totally get the “food for fuel” idea but sugar does not equal fuel ;) strawberries, the chocolate mix, the uncountable plus the raisins is a sugar high lunch. But love the videos! Great inspiration!
@@mariadocarmosarmento9487 except sugar is literally fuel, lol. And these are healthy sugars, not refined sugars so she did a great job
Carrie it’s great for someone who comes from a SAD diet, that is true.

Great video as always...:-)
thanks!!
All the bento box videos I watch pretty much have the same boring recipes but your video is so good, and the recipes look great! I love!
thank you! I appreciate it!
I love how you make ying yang in your salt and pepper little things like that really make me appreciate how much time it takes to film videos
Thank you so much! It's a delicate process :)
At least half the views in this video are mine. Idk why I end up watching this so often lmao
LOL! I love you for it
Shipping Stylinson hahah omg samee

Awesome, thank you! :)
When I go to Japan I will try several of these boxes. Thanks for sharing!
