A bento box is a single-portion, packed meal that is easy to take on the go. Traditional Japanese bento often includes rice or noodles, a protein (fish or meat), and a variety of cooked or pickled vegetables.

Bento containers come in many styles, from simple disposable options to stainless steel, glass, and reusable multi-compartment boxes.

Bento boxes can be used as meal-prep containers for the week or as simple grab-and-go lunches. You can purchase bento-style containers online (including Amazon) or in many home and kitchen stores.
