There are so many bento options in japan, but I have to say soboro bento is probably one of the most popular ones. I remember I was so happy to see the bright yellow, green and brown color when I opened a bento box as a child! Here in America, I often make this for a special occasion like a family picnic or outdoor party rather than as an everyday school lunch option. Anyone who tries this will just love this flavor harmony!
