Meatballs and rice cakes are bento staples. These can be made in large quantities and kept frozen. When needed, they should be heated through and packed into the lunch boxes. I prefer to cut the fruits in the morning so that they remain fresh. It normally takes me around 10 to 15 minutes to pack all three bentos if I have everything planned ahead of time.
The main container holds the rice cake (a mix of white and brown rice), meatballs, and stir-fry baby bok choy with deep fried tofu cakes. The smaller container holds an assortment of fruits.
Lids are placed on the two containers. They are then stacked up neatly and held together with a belt.
