Bento #14 - Octopus Galore

Bento content: Octopus Hot Dog, Macaroni & Cheese with peas & corn, Mandarin Orange
The Octopus hot dog is really easy to make. Just cook your hot dog as you normally would. Then cut it into half. Make a few cuts with a scissors for the tentacles. Then poke a 3 holes on the “face”and fill it with sprinkles for the eyes and mouth.
Stumble it!

Aw, this is so cute, and so clever of you to sculpt the sausage like this! C gobbled it all up in no time, I’m sure?! =)
The octopus is so cute. My children would love them.
the octopus hotdog is a great idea
yumm
I pre-cut the tentacles before cooking, that way, the tentacles will curl up nicely (provided you use the whole sausage). Ah… the sprinkles is a good idea. I’ll adopt that next time. Thanks for your tips! Happy mother’s day to you!
