    The one a day series in January was just inspired.
    This was the best yet, everything was on point. The nutritional info, presentation, music and humour!
    The team that put this together deserve recognition, maybe even an award! High end production value no doubt.

    I just love this channel. Iv been a subscriber ever since her first pair up with the Domestic Geek and I can say with zero doubt that Mind Over Munch has become my absolute favorite channel. So much time, effort, and love put into each video. Beautifully produced, amusing intros. I just... there are not words for how fantastic a creator Alyssia is! Iv never purchased an e-book before. Iv now bought the meal prep one and plan to buy more just so I can support her and her work.

    • @MindOverMunch
      @MindOverMunch  7 ปีที่แล้ว +61

      Some of those are pretty common actually, a lot of asian dishes contain protein and peanuts, and watermelon feta salads are delicious! So fresh for summer :) I personally think everything goes with cream cheese, especially cucumbers... so I figured a pickle would too :)

      Kelly S I've been seeing watermelon and feta salads all over the place this summer and so I finally gave in and ordered one. It was delicious! Give it a try. Also, that turkey, cream cheese, pickle situation is something my mom has done my whole life. Never had BBQ with peanut butter, but I imagine it's worth a shot.

      I was thinking that too. Personally, I would put a little less of one item in a compartment. Maybe put a few nuts around the dip container if there is room.🤔

    I'm so glad I stumbled upon this! I'm starting back to school and only need to bring lunch once a week, so I was looking for some simple, healthy, no-cook bentos. Thanks for the delicious ideas!

    I mean this in all seriousness: What's the appeal of bento boxes? They seem to require a lot of work and don't seem any more convenient than packing a regular lunch. Do people like the idea of themed meals? Is it easier to portion control? I just can't figure out how to fit this in my life.
    (I still very much enjoyed the video! Thanks for making such great content.)

      I think it's just an appealing way to view healthy food. When food looks pretty, we are more likely to partake. There's to inherent reason someone must include bento boxes in their life, perhaps you can find inspiration from the recipes and incorporate them beyond a bento lunchbox just as a meal or snack :) Cheers

      My kid (age 4) doesn't like his food to touch. Putting his lunch in a bento box keeps everything separated and lets him pick and choose what he wants to eat from a bunch of healthy items. We don't do any of the super involved character bentos.
      Ultimately, it's just a lunch box, a little more sturdy than the plastic things we had when I was a kid, and a whole lot less wasteful than the brown bags and endless ziploc baggies when I was older.
      When we pack a bento for the adults in the house, we usually use leftovers from the night before, or a sandwich. When my husband knows he's likely to have a really long day at work, I'll give him a "snack bento". With some healthy but tasty snacks.
      These videos show her making everything before she packs it, but really quite a few of these recipes would keep in the fridge for a few days. You don't have make everything fresh everyday.

      Danielle Lacey bento boxes don't have to be themed or have any kind of gimmick. It offers a bit of portion control, and kids tend to like them because it helps keep their food separated. You can pack them like a normal lunch box if you want. Usually, bentos are tightly packed to the point that the food doesn't move around.

    • @redhandedlizzie

      I like them because you can include a variety of different foods and they are great when you have little portions of leftovers which might otherwise go to waste. They really save on space and packaging - you don't have to use baggies, you can just plop stuff in the compartments and go. If you've got several things you want to pack they'll keep it all in place without mixing them up. I've done the cute time-consuming bentos for my husband (including animal picks and fruit with faces, etc.) However, if you're just packing a regular lunch it's really quick and easy. You don't have to go all out by any means and it makes everything look tidy and appealing.

      I'm Japanese and bento boxes are part of my culture, I eat from them everyday. It's easy to put leftovers in them :) and it's cute in my opinion haha.

    My oldest has ADHD and after a long talk with her doctor was put on meds. She lost a ton of weight for her tiny body. And we were scared but the doctor said to just wait. We started watching these together. My almost 7 year old now eats and eats her mind over munch foods and loves helping pick out foods on your channel. Shes gained back most of her weight... in MUSCLE. It's insane and we are beyond happy! Thank you!

    I watched this video the other day, and had an epiphany. We have the rice papers in the cupboard (never been opened, even though I am Gluten Free and totally planned to make some summer rolls). I had some leftover roasted veg in the fridge that needed being used, and made rolls out of the leftover veg and used some salad dressing as the dip. This is now a TOTAL REPEAT!! Thank you so much for all your great ideas!
