Temari Rabbit 2-Tier Bento #112

My version of Carrot-Cucumber Salad with "Honey" Sesame Dressing, white rice, and Gardein's mandarin orange crispy chick'n with a scallion garnish.

I love this salad. It's so simple and yet it looks so impressive. And it goes so well with Asian food. I wasn't up to all I wanted to be this weekend, but Gardein stepped in for the rest. I'm glad I found it on sale--I do think it's too pricey to eat often at full price, but I dive in happily for an occasional treat when I can buy a bag for $3.25!

  1. This looks delicious and the salad sounds perfect! I'm definitely going to have to try it out. Gardein is such a great option for convenience but definitely a but on sale item. They have such great variety though and everything is so good!

    1. I felt pretty silly when I got the chicken wings and didn't like them much because they were too much like chicken wings! I never liked chicken wings much but with vegan food you never know.

      I hope you like the salad, if you try it!

  2. I agree! I usually only buy convenience faux meats when they are on sale and when I know I will be in a situation where I would like to have something comparable - such as a pot luck or something...or camping.

  3. I make a similar salad thing thatā€™s all cucumber, itā€™s my go to side for any and all asian meals.
    Yay for sale gardein! I havenā€™t tried that one before, sounds the same as trader joeā€™s version (and actually might literally be the same, gardein makes the frozen chickenless tenders for TJs)

  4. This looks like such a great meal; I'll definitely have to try that salad sometime! I love grabbing Gardein on sale so I can have it when I'm not up for cooking!
