Traditional Japanese vegetarian bento options?
So Ive decided to carry a bento with me for lunch instead of buying food while out, but I havent been able to find any vegetarian bento options that really sound good and that consist of ingredients I could easily find. I can make sushi and onigiri - but I couldnt eat that for lunch every single day.
Im also interested in sticking to traditional japanese recipes, or modified japanese recipes.
Ive had bento with shumai and gyoza in them before, is it possible to make veggie versions of these and how difficult would they be to make? I also thought a few pieces of vegetable tenpura would be good - but I dont know if I could deep fry anything without injuring myself.
I know most bentos have some form of small salad included, what are some good options for this besides just lettuce?
I have to add I dont love tofu - I eat it on occasion, but I couldnt eat it as the main portion of my meal.

Hello! I'm a Japanese collage student. If you worry about calories, you should not put Karaage, which look like fried chicken, into bento. In addition, I introduce Hinomaru-bento. It's a traditional form of bento for Japanese and you can make it easily. Firstly, you will put rice in the bento-box, and put a pickled ume on the rice, that's all! This express the Japanese flag and have been eaten since the past. I hope my answer will help you! Good bye :)

Hello,
Have you ever had Yakisoba? This is a sitr-fried noodle dish that is often prepared with beef or chicken, but you could leave the meat out and make it with sateed cabbage, julienned carrot, shiitake mishrooms and green onion.
Japanese potato salad is also very good served on top of a lettuce leaf. If you see it at the store, try it. If they don't sell it, you can find an easy recipe online.
Vegetable tempura is delicious and easy to make at home. Mix rice flour with CHILLED club soda 'till the consistency is like pancake batter. Then dip green beans, scallions, thinly sliced potato and sweet potat
