I'm 7/8 Slovak, visit Slovakia every summer to teach English, and incorporate Slovak foods into my diet fairly frequently. Actually, I grew up eating Polish and Slovak food.
So, it's not surprising that some Slovak food will find its way into my bentos.
- chicken paprikas with peppers... except that I made mine more of a stir-fry instead of stewed chicken
- brown jasmine rice
- cherry tomatoes
- cucumber salad, a.k.a. uhorkovy salat
Mnam!
If you're interested in traditional Slovak cuisine, here's a great blog: Slovak Cooking.
I've actually never tried Slovak food. Maybe I should try it sometime! The bento looks nice and well balanced. :)
