Veggie Bento

This Veggie Bento box is quick and easy to make up to have on hand for an on-the-go snack, lunch or dinner add on. The ranch dressing is optional, but the healthy fats in it will help your body absorb all the beneficial vitamins and minerals in the vegetables. If you’re short on time try Tessemae’s or Primal Kitchens Ranch dressing for some great brands. Feel free to swap out the veggies with any other favorites such as bell pepper slices, cucumber slices, jicama, etc.
