Ghost Quesadilla Bento

This bento goes bump in the night. :) A ghost quesadilla filled with cheese and chicken. I used a cookie cutter to make the ghost shape, then put cheese and chicken inside to make the quesadilla.

Also in this bento: baby carrots, cucumbers (hiding under the ghost), cherry tomatoes, baked tortilla chips (made with leftover scraps from the ghost tortilla), and more chicken.

Oh and great news: yesterday when I was making my donation to Redwood Empire Food Bank for my 80th bento post, I found out that the Wine Road organization here in Sonoma County is holding some spectacular raffles with all proceeds going to the Redwood Empire Food Bank! So instead of making my $20 donation to the food bank, I purchased 3 raffle tickets for $25. That way Redwood Empire Food Bank gets the money, and I might win a cool Wine Road package. :)

    I believe this is very very friendly ghost right? Love your idea for making the ghost with tiny eyes, it looks cuter this way (^.^)

    Thanks Lia! I used a small hole punch to make the eyes. I tried larger eyes, but they were actually too scary. Smaller eyes is kawaii!

    Thanks Lina! It would be great to win a prize, but I hope they raise a lot of money too. I don't mind if I don't win. :)
