After eating in my company's cafe for two weeks, I finally got kind of bored with the food choices and wanna bring my own lunch...so I decided to get myself a lunch bag.
I remember seeing a cute lunch bag from LeSportsac a while ago and luckily it was still on sale. I took advantage of the free shipping and 3 days after I submitted my order, it was finally here.
Meet my lunch bag :)
Now that I have my lunch sac, I need to think about what to put in. Any idea?

Ton sac est très beau !
Anyway, may I suggest fried rice, pasta, or couscous?
Merci, Eric.
Fried rice and pasta are good...I've never tried cooking couscous...maybe I'll try it someday...do you have the recipe?
De rien, Siew Gee.
I love couscous with chicken. Here's one sample of that:
(Source: Myrecipes.com)
Prep: 15 min., Cook: 5 min., Stand: 5 min. No pots and pans are required for this easy, no-mess recipe. Simply use a glass measuring cup to heat the broth in the microwave, place dry couscous in the serving bowl, and then add the broth. Once the remaining ingredients are stirred in, the dish is ready to serve.
Yield
Makes 8 servings (serving size: 1 cup)
Ingredients
1 1/4 cups low-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1 (5.6-ounce) package toasted pine nut couscous mix
3 cups chopped cooked chicken (about 1 rotisserie chicken)
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1 (4-ounce) package crumbled feta cheese
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Garnish: fresh basil leaves
Preparation
Heat broth and seasoning packet from couscous in the microwave on HIGH for 3 to 5 minutes or until broth begins to boil. Place couscous in a large bowl, and stir in broth mixture. Cover and let stand 5 minutes.
Fluff couscous with a fork; stir in chicken and next 6 ingredients. Serve warm or cold. Garnish, if desired.
Tip: You'll need to buy a 2/3-ounce package of fresh basil and 1 rotisserie chicken to get the right amount of basil and chicken for this recipe. Substitute 4 teaspoons of dried basil if you can't find fresh.
Sounds good, I'll definitely try it out and will let you know how it goes.
Thanks, Eric.
