In honor of the release of the third and final book in the
Hunger Games trilogy,
Mockingjay, by Suzanne Collins, I decided to take a break from reading to make a Hunger Games Bento. The bento is a tomato, yellow pepper, and tofu salad. The mockingjay pin logo, and flame details are made from Nori. I thought this bento would be easy to make. Just cut some veggies and nori into the shape of flames right? Well, it was much more difficult than I had anticipated, and I'm not satisfied with the results. But, I haven't posted a bento in a while, so here it is. On the side is some delish gluten free pizza with vegan cheese. Ever since I went gluten free I have been craving pizza. I'm so happy I found a local pizzeria that has gluten free and vegan pizza.
If you aren't familiar with the Hunger Games, it is a hugely popular middle reader/young adult dystopian series. If you are looking for a good read, definitely check it out.

Love the books! Great bento :)
Thanks Laura! I love the books too. I was really pleased with Mockingjay.
Just yesterday a friend dropped by and left the first two of these books for me to read so I should be caught up just about the time everyone else is over it! I'm hopelessly behind, I still have another Twilight book to read!
Being behind has its perks, you don't have to wait months for the next book. Instant gratification.
