Wedding day bento

We went to a wedding yesterday and because we need to be there the whole day and I know it would be very hard to get something to eat when you'd like to, I've made a small bento for me and my daughter.

Last week I've read about Quinoa, I've never heard of it, but it seemed to be some kind of seeds, I've read it should taste like popcorn... So, I've bought a bag of quinoa and cooked it in the evening. (Then my husband thought it was rubbish and threw it away and I needed to cook it again... ) Anyways, I've finished it succesfully and it really tastes like funny, but I stil don't know if it tastes like popcorn, hard to say...

I've used the quinoa in a salad with cucumber, tomatoes, bell pepper and corn, finished with a herbsaus... Aside, I've made a fruitsalad from melon, pineapple, grapes and green and gold kiwi.

Unfortunately I can't tell how it tastes, because my cousin told us he forgot his lunch when he went to work and I gave him my bento. And, don't have pictures taken... Next time more about this funny food...
