Year of the Monkey Bento

Bento
Here's a bento I made to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Sorry for the delay in uploading. We've had a busy February filled with children's birthday parties!
I got to try out my new kitchen toy whilst making this bento. I used a spiralizer to cut the cucumber and carrots into fun curly ribbons!
