Japanese Curry Rice Bento

Made Japanese curry last night! My husband said that curry is better on the next day....
I put the leftover curry in a bento box. Let's see if it tastes better that last night!


We had annual passes for Universal Studio Hollywood when their new minions ride was open!
We both loved the ride:) I'd love to try it again!

Today's bento menu

Minion Curry (eyes: purple potatoes, cheese and nori seaweed / mouth: cheese, nori seaweed)
Haiga rice

Homemade Japanese curry recipe is below.
Add any protein of your choice.
I added left over bbq chicken and my husband liked it:)

うちの旦那は同じものを二日連続で食べるのを嫌がります。。（めんどくせ！ｗ）
なので、今日ごはんだったら明日はパスタとか色々考えてメニュー作り★
しかし、カレーだけは二日でも三日でも続けて食べてくれるんですー！！！！
ちょっと寝かした次の日の方が美味しいからって★
でもスーパーで売っている箱入りのカレーは使いたくないので、ルーは手作り♪

一昨年の会社のクリスマスパーティーで旦那がユニバーサルスタジオの年パスをペアでもらってきたので、4回ほど行きました。
最初にStudio Tourを体験したときは感動～！日本から家族や友達が来たら連れていきたいなー。
でもおススメは新しいミニオンズの乗り物！トランスフォーマーと同じぐらい楽しかったです♪
