Star Wars Bento - It's a Trap!

by

Happy Star Wars Day! If you're not a nerd you may not realize that today is Star Wars Day - May the fourth... get it? ... no? Well, think about it for a bit...

I thought I could try to make R2D2, or Darth Vader - but I sat around brain storming with my husband and kids and we unanimously agreed that I needed to make Admiral Ackbar.

Star Wars Bento - It's a Trap!

I sort of combined Star Wars Day with Cinco de Mayo - this lunch is spanish rice, taco meat, cheese, refried beans, and fruit. I laughed all the way through creating this one!  Yoda looks a little like the grinch, and Admiral Ackbar is SO hideous - I couldn't convince my son to have this for lunch today, but my husband is a good sport and he'll eat it  : )

Here's a slide show to explain how I made it:

It's time for another awesome blog hop! I'm not the only one doing a Star Wars Bento today - check out all my friends' blogs to see what they're having for lunch today:
