Make this falafel salad fun with a bento-style lunchbox. It's great for toddlers and young children who prefer lunches with lots of individual elements. Use shop-bought falafel or make our Edamame falafel

Method

step 1
Divide the grains between the lunchboxes. Top each one with the vegetables, falafel, a spoonful of hummus and a drizzle of oil, if using, or divide the ingredients between the compartments of a bento-style lunchbox. Put a lemon in each box for squeezing over just before eating.
