Bento School Lunches : Captain America Bento

How are y'all doing? It summer here and it's been raining every single day! Time flies when you are having fun and I can't believe it's already July. So far we have been on a few local road trips, with some of the places we have visited being the Orlando Eye, which is a giant ferris wheel which took us 400 feet above the city in a very comfortable capsule, beaches, museums, Legoland and more. We have unlimited visitors passes to Legoland along with some other attractions, and we are looking forward of going back again soon. Next month, we will be traveling out of country and have several other road trips in mind if time permits. We have the tendency of extending our stay and always have to purchase extra clothing, it isn't the style that matters then, but rather the time that matters.

We also have been watching some movies, both old and new, during our family movie nights and one of them was Captain America: The First Avenger. Nikolai asked me why I've not made him a Captain America lunch so I made this one for one of our outings. I've previously made Thor and Hulk lunches for him which can be seen here.

I used a bagel for Captain America's shield by first filling the center with black grapes (you can also use blueberries), and then surrounding them first with a ring of strawberry fruit leather and then with a ring of provolone cheese which I also used to make the center star. I used my circle cookie cutter for the rings cut-outs. The outermost ring is of organic strawberry jam. In the upper right is a container of organic applesauce and to the left of that are some orange slices to which I added a flag pick. I think this lunch which was packed in a Fit & Fresh bento kit will also be great for the 4th of July.
