It’s not just bears and mice, you know. I’m also on a mission to find out ALL the ways in which to make bento birds.
To make this one, you’ll need:
Something green for the foliage, thinly sliced roast beef (dinner leftovers of from the deli) for the branches, super thin one-egg omelette and hummus or baba ganoush for the birds, steamed carrot for the wings, corn kernels for beaks and a little seaweed for the eyes. Optional, enoki mushrooms to decorate forest floor.
Spread your “glue” over the omelette, roll and slice. Decorate with carrot, corn and seaweed.
Mr T. likes birds a lot, so there’s always some food play involved.
