Have you ever seen chikuwa?  It's a grilled fish paste tube-shaped, a kind of kamaboko.  I think it's a good item for a bento dish.  It's okay to eat both cooked and non cooked.  You maybe able to find it at an Asian food section of supermarket.  Today, I rolled it with processed cheese slices.  Chikuwa goes well with cheese and it's so easy to make a chikuwa/cheese roll.  So how about it when you can get some chikuwa!?
