Thanks for the video! You don’t have to justify your diet choices to us. You are on your health journey and it is different for everyone. You will figure it out. God speed!
@@JulieDozierMcCrary thank you so much and yes, whenever I’m sharing it’s just to let you know some of the things that I do that hopefully will inspire others to take their own health choices into their own hands🙏❤️😊
David is a very lucky man to have you and all your thoughtfulness and creativity!💕 I bet all the folks around you (including the stewardesses) were so jealous of your delicious (and beautiful) breakfast!
Thank you so much, Cindy! Yes, I did get some luxe from the people around me and the flight attendants did comment that they loved by bento box meals! When she came around to hand out the pretzels, she just looked at me and she said, “I guess you don’t want these?“😂
is it wrong that i stopped the video to like it and comment as soon as i saw what you did with the sticker? it must be love if you can tease him like that. happy travels.
🤣😂 you just brought the biggest smile on my face but that comment🙏❤️ I know it’s not wrong, because as much as we hate to admit it, all of our minds revert back to that😂 love it I’m so happy to have you as part of this channel and look forward to your feedback on my other videos! I can tell you were just a sassy as I am😂🤣
I’m so happy I stumbled upon your channel! Next month I’m flying for the first time in 19 years and a lot has changed since then. Lol Your channel is making packing for this trip so much easier! You are a treasure, and must be protected at all costs! I love your energy and all the wisdom you share ❤
I am so happy you stumbled across my channel too! ❤️ Travel has definitely changed so much. I’m not sure if you are traveling in the United States or outside of the United States but if you have any other travel questions, I’d be happy to answer them for you.! Thank you so much for your beautiful feedback😊🙏❤️ wishing you the safest and most memorable journey!
Oh my goodness, this is fantastic! I would be nudging other passengers just to show them what you made! "LOOK AT THIS! SHE'S AMAZING!" Thanks for sharing your great ideas with us.
Lol! We did get some looks from other passengers on flight attendance for our meals and one flight attendant asked if I would make her one next time!🤣😂 Thank you so much for watching and giving me your feedback. It’s truly appreciated.🥰😊🙏❤️
Wow! Absolutely first-class dining. I am so inspired. I fly Coast-to-Coast about once a month for the last year-and-a-half, usually JetBlue. I just got a generic hotlogic Mini. It paid for itself on one one way trip since I'm not buying airport food. Since my departure and destinations are always Regional airports, I have 13 hour days on average with two layovers about 4 hours each, so that's two meals each way. Next time I fly on JetBlue, I have been tempted to bring the ingredients for rent classes signature cocktail and cook for myself food off the mint class menu. You have already outdone that. Presentation is so the key to fine dining and you have hit it out of the ballpark. My strategy, I have cloth napkins to use as a tray table tablecloth and a little Electric tea light, which I have seen used in first class by airlines elsewhere on RU-vid. I would love to see what you would do in flight with the hot logic. Making your own hot towel service is now an option.
Really good ideas! My daughter and I are gluten sensitive and pack our own food for flights. I never thought of doing these kinds of meals in bento boxes, going to have to get some for next time!
Thank you! It is especially important if you are on specialized diet to be able to make sure you get what you need without having any issues with your food❤️🙏😊
I saw this video and immediately ordered that adorable Bento box with the bamboo lid. I put it to work on a plane three days later. It was so handy on our trip, sealed up great, very compact! I packed yummy appetizers to go with a split of Prosecco on the trip over Including cured, smoked salmon and little rice crackers. Then we used it in the hotel room to store leftovers from dinner that we could eat for lunch the next day. Thank you. I’ll never pack food the same way for airplane trips again!
Oh my gosh, your comment brought such a great smile to my face😄 ❤️ I’m so happy that this worked out for you and that you have found a new great way to pack snacks and store your food during your travel adventures.😊🙏❤️ Thank you so much for letting me know🙏❤️🙏
The bento boxes look amazing and tasty David is a lucky man! I’m stealing this idea for work lunches. Bentos are my favorite lifehack, they inspire me to pack lunch every day bc they’re so cute!!
Hey Eunice, love these ideas. Just wanted you to know I went shopping so I could make these meals. I try to fix small meals so this is perfect. Keep on inspiring us. Love your channel!
Lol! You were getting some pretty curious looks at the flight attendants would come by and say they thought that was awesome and they wondered if I could pack food for them next time😊🙏❤️
If you've never tried cooking bacon in the oven, you should try it out. That's my favorite method. I tried the air fryer too but wasn't as happy with it as regular oven baking. That sticker was too funny! I would've re-used it too. LOL
Thank you so much! Have you ever tried putting your bacon on the smoker? If not, you should definitely do it because the smoke flavor that it puts in there is like a little bit of heaven in your mouth.😋 yeah, I put that sticker on his bento box and he didn’t even notice!😂
Yeah, I think because they were made out of bamboo and not metal. We were OK with that.. we did get some looks from people around us and the flight attendants thought it was an awesome idea🙏😊❤️
Thank you so much and I appreciate you watching the video and taking the time to give me feedback! It was getting a little bit long, and I tried to cut it short as I could but I wanted to get all the information out there💕😊
It’s a small container garden, but it’s a great way for me to practice gardening, and just get a few things into our pantry that we grow on our own! Plus, it helps me really relax!
Hi Robin! Thank you so much! I’m so glad you find my humor saucy, because I am kind of a saucy lady😂🤣 the more comfortable I get with making these videos, the more saucy it gets🤣😂 Thank you so much for watching and commenting.🙏❤️😊
I’m so happy that you love this and I’m very happy that you’re going to try this on your next trip! I think you’re going to make your next flying adventure so much more enjoyable😊🙏❤️
Thank you! Welcome to Theory of Simple! 🙏😃 as someone who had an eating disorder for years I finally realize that it was more of a metal struggle than a physical one. Now I realize portion control is everything! By the way, I love your handle, Live in the joy! That is something, I truly believe ! Juice life! drink the joy! and keep life simple is my motto! 🥰😊🙏
Wow what a creative idea, looks so good and made with so much love. What a lucky guy!!, Thank you for the idea, I have to try it. Enjoy your travels!!❤❤❤
Thank you! It’s not something I do all the time but when we travel together, I try to make it a little special since traveling these days is pretty horrific! Plus it’s so hard to find healthy food so I try to bring what I can to eat fairly healthy. 😊
I’m so happy I came across all your amazing videos! They truly are so very helpful and your logical problem solving skills are off the charts! Love all your insights but this video takes the cake! You’re so fun to watch and laugh with! Thank you!
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much!💕😊 bring such a great smile to my face to know that you’re getting some great travel, packing hacks for my videos, and that I can bring a smile to your face!💕😊
Thank you so much & You are so very welcome and I’m so happy to have you as part of the theory of simple community! We’re looking forward to your feedback on my other videos!
Everything looks so yummy. Especially those little egg frittatas. You come up with the best ideas for those Bento boxes. And about the bacon…..everyone needs bacon…..I don’t care who you are!
That was seriously SO entertaining. Subscribed!! Yeaaaaaa! I laughed along with ya and I smiled along with ya. Love love loved ur little garden. 💚 Food looked great! 🙌🏽
I just love your laugh/giggle. It's my new mission to sit next to you on a flight sometime. Since I'll be excessively drooling on your food you'll have no choice but to feed me your goodies, lol
I LOVE your bento boxes!!!! Such a pretty presentation that's making my mouth water! Nothing short of pure genius....I can't wait till I fly again so I can make a keto box for myself. ❤
I love this so much! You are my soul sister! Wonderful videos - thank you! I’m going to try this - along with the ball jokes 😂- I hope with my own garden this summer 😁✈️🍱
Thank you so much😊🙏 my mind is in the gutter sometimes😂🤣 I hope you do start a garden, even if it’s a container garden just to grow a few of your own things.. I hope the neighbors start a garden who never garden before, and didn’t think she would ever want to garden and now she’s so happy that she has a little container garden to take care of and get just a few things of her own😊❤️🙏
Just came across your channel and loving it. This video of bento boxes is so perfect. Brilliant using the silicone cups in the airfryer, just genius. The idea of prepacking your meal for the airlines can also be used when you have a long day out. I also am focusing on low carb and especially low sugar. I am leaning to vegetarian type of meals lately this packing of a bento is brilliant. Looking forward to your other videos. Thank you for the lovely information.
Hi Bernadette! Welcome to Theory of Simple! So happy to have you as part of this community! I love packing bento boxes, weather in Flying, or just having for lunch because it does help me portion control and for me it’s fun to make! Looking forward to your feedback on my other videos! Best of luck with your low carb low sugar vegetarian diet! 😊
@@TheoryofSimple my man going on a long trip. We usually go in the RV to meetings but this time the RV is in storage so I will stay hime. I am going to see if he would be willing to go the bento box route. (I hope).
Great ideas! So thoughtful ❤️! And they turned out beautiful! I definitely want to do the eggs and the sausage “balls” in the air fryer. And the Bloody Mary to go was brilliant!
Thank you so much!🙏😊 I don’t think I’ll cook sausage any other way than the air fryer at this point because he’s turned out amazing! And you should’ve seen the faces of the people around me as we are drinking, the bloody Mary’s off the plane! Even the flight attendants were impressed!😍
Hi! Thank you very much for your great advice and information on travel related matters! Wishing you all the best and good health. Take care and goodbye. From Tariq, Cardiff, UK
Well done, so proud of you. A girl just like myself who loves to be prepared. This cheered me up so much. Just off to sleep in London UK. Night night and thank you.
I’ve never seen your videos before, this is the first video I’ve watched and I just shared it with my friends and husband. Ur Bloody Mary kits were absolutely amazing 😍 I never would have thought of that! So cool!
The easiest way to fill the mini hot sauce bottle is to pour out some hotsauce, then turn the mini bottle into the hot sauce and squeeze in the sauce. I hopebit made sense
Your breakfast looked so good! I have pre-diabetes and follow a low carb diet. It’s a challenge especially when you love to eat☺ hope you had a fun and relaxing vacation.
Yummmmmm Meeeeeeeeee I’m obsessed with anything Bento. The Bloody Mary fixins and egg bites were my favorite 🍱🍱. Good to know you can pack and get food through TSA❣️
Yes and even liquid as long as it’s under 3.5 ounces and in something that they can see they usually let it go through and if you have TSA pre-check you don’t even need to take anything out.😊
I recently discovered your channel and WOW! So much inspiration and great ideas. We are campers too and many of your ideas translate well for our camping trips. Thank you!
I am so happy you discovered my channel and are getting some great ideas and hacks for your RV adventures! It is in my bucket list to get a nice class B RV, and do some traveling soon. Quite honestly, I’d like to buy an old man and just renovated myself.! 💕😊
@@TheoryofSimple Renovating would be fun! We have a small couples travel trailer and it’s a blast. You live in a great part of the country for Class B travel.
@@craftingwithmarilyn7649 yes we are very blessed to be able to have great climate for class B RV camping! I’m not sure if you follow my brothers channel but he is channel is all about class B RVs @ultramobility
I agree. If you want to eat certain foods, it’s nobody’s business but yours. You do a stellar job and I have been learning so much. I’ve started collecting and putting together a small crossbody, away from town purse that adds to the small crossbody stuff, editing my car emergency bag and putting things aside for my personal and carryon bags. Also I am taking copious notes and thinking about a kitchen in a bag (2 bags). Love your presentations.
Thank you so much, Sue! I am so happy you are getting some great ideas from my videos for preparedness, EDC, and travel! I’m passionate about this type of thing and hopefully can get people especially women to be more passionate about being prepared for about anything! 💕😊
Didn't think you'd have a problem with the liquid since it was less than the limit allowed. In any case, really liked the sausage balls and egg bites. Will have to try that sometime. Happy travels!
Your boxes are adorable and look gorgeous! Bet David was really surprised when he opened his! I eat high carb (plants) lol but can still use your ideas to make a fun and delicious portable meal. Have a wonderful time!
Thank you so much! David was so appreciative of having a nice meal with such an early morning flight! There are so many options you can do with these bento boxes! You could put a salad with some high protein, chickpeas, or edamame in that, and then just bring a little bit of lemon juice and olive oil in those little tiny containers, and make yourself a salad, or even just sauté some veggies and maybe put in some rice and make yourself a nice Asian meal. So many variations that you could do for these boxes! Maybe I’ll try to make one next time that’s completely vegan!😊
I am new to the channel and so glad I found you on my feed. I love the way you make traveling so much more comfortable and actually rewarding with your tips and tricks. I’m amazed at your creativity! Also as a hint, I too do low carb and high protein for other medical reasons and I found that egg white are great for protein and only 17 cals per egg. So I use a 1 to 1 and it helps. 😁 Best of luck on your lifestyle changes and I know you got this!!!
Thank you so much! Truly appreciate your feedback. By the way, egg whites and egg yolks are close in protein and actually egg yolks carry more protein than egg whites gram for gram but also egg yolks carry the fat and all of the other micro nutrients that are so good for you that egg whites don’t carry so we tend to eat the whole egg. Also research is starting to show that cholesterol issues are not caused by eating cholesterol as much as by eating carbohydrates and sugars, which damage the lining of the veins and arteries, which cholesterol, tries to fix and heal.❤️🙏😊
@@TheoryofSimple - W.O.W. Thank YOU for your feedback. I wasn’t aware of that information about the eggs. It’s good to know for sure. I know eggs are super healthy for protein, but now I know a LOT more. I truly appreciate it! 👍😁
@@AmberGarrett-py6ry well I do travel a lot and if I’m gonna travel, I’m gonna make sure that I’m enjoying it as much as possible because sometimes it’s really a pain in the butt💕😊
Looks like a great breakfast! A suggestion on your hot sauce would be to pour the equivalent amount in a small fruit bowl, then take your little squeeze bottle, press out the air and hold it until you position it upside down in the bowl. It will suck up the hot sauce.
I love bento boxes as much as the next person but I am lucky to get myself to the airport let alone prepare something like this to take along. I fly a lot and I learned during the pandemic that I can survive a 3-4 hour flight with a cookie and a little bottle of water. There's enough restaurants and snacks at major airports if you're absolutely starving. I love airport sushi and $14 sub sandwiches 🥪. You're definitely going above and beyond.
Thank you! The last time I flew we had to reroute to a different airport and we landed late and everything was closed in the airport. I was so happy that I have these bento boxes for myself and my father, so that when we checked into the hotel to fly out the next day we had food, even though everything else was closed.🙏😊
I usually fill up my tea bottle on the plane and the flight stewards are more than happy to fill it up and my glass tea bottle holds 19oz. So pretty big size and they fill it up to the top.🥰👍
Love love love this video I’m always interested in what foods to bring. Yes you can take liquids 3.4 ozs less not a problem Your container was way way smaller than that your breakfast was even better than first class. Now where did you go how long was your flight Thumbs up
Oh I loved your Bento boxes so fun! Just love being able to eat well anywhere with a little imagination and planning. Oh and I just love Diaso so much I have those little condiment bottles too and near them or maybe it is in the beauty and health isle there are pipettes
oops I did not finish... the pipettes makes it easy to take liquid out of the big bottle and slip it into the smaller bottle with out to much mess. I use it for soy sauces, vinegars, all sorts and even for my perfumes into small spray bottles for in my toiletry bags... If they don't have the pipettes at the moment they also carry a syringe with a wider diameter that would make the transfer easier too, however the plastic pipette is great! Your Bento Box is so nice and functional as well... love that it air tight!
I did not finish my reply... oops... anyway the pipettes help take the liquid out of the bigger bottle and into the little condiment bottle with out much mess, and if they do not have them in stock at the moment they also carry a syringe to do the same thing... They do have the neatest thing there! I just think your Bento boxes are so nice and I love that they are air tight too. It is so nice to be able to eat good food where ever you are with a little imagination and planning. Love it!
I'm so excited to hear this. I thought you weren't allowed to bring food through security. I'm flying next month so I'm going to pack a lunch box. What size baking cups did you use for the egg bites?
I love your videos. I M buying the bento boxes. Do you get a credit? You always come up with creative solutions. I used one of your food ideas during the holidays. Thank You
Hi Jo Ann! Yes, if you use the links in the video description or links that I give to you, I get a small percentage from Amazon. The price is the same whether you use my link or not, but I get a very small percentage from Amazon. I am so happy you were finding my videos, useful and entertaining ! Thank you so much for watching and commenting and supporting my channel!❤️
Ask at your local pharmacy for a plastic syringe. Farm supply stores with a veterinary section also carry them. Makes filling small containers so much easier.
Ok. Brilliant idea. Looked so beautiful in the box and I'm certain it was delicious. I'm going to try this on my next flight. I too am on a high protein and fat eating plan to bring down my a1c levels and it's working. Just a suggestion: use heavy cream rather than half and half. Heavy cream has zero sugar. Loved the video. Subscribed. ❤
Thank you so much !❤️😊🙏Yes, most the time at home I use heavy cream, but it’s very hard to find heavy cream when you’re traveling and honestly the carb difference for 1 tablespoon (.4g vs .6g) it’s not worth the hassle. I can get these little mini moos and these little containers that don’t need to be refrigerated and then carry them on board with me and use them during my travels.. 😊❤️🙏
@@TheoryofSimple oh those mini moos are a great idea for travel. Never thought of that. Thanks. Was talking about home use with the heavy cream and sugar count not carb count.😁. Anyway you seem to be a very savvy traveler.❤
I'm white and my husband is tex-mex and WE love bento boxes and everything that goes inside. I thought about being those on plane but didn't know you could
Well, as of this, posting the airlines, do not prohibit you from bringing your own food onto the plane. However, you know how things could change these days. The only restriction is if you’re bringing something like a liquid it still has to Be 3.4 ounces or less and that includes the container not being able to carry more than 3.4 ounces. For example if you have a 6 ounce bottle but you only have 3.4 ounces of liquid in it, they will take it but that being said food is definitely something you are allowed to bring through TSA and on the plane with you. since most airlines do not have a food service any longer. This is a great way to make your flight a little nicer especially if you’re going for several hours.😊💕
I was at a friend's house cooking for a group of ladies coming over, she had a frozen apple pie that needed warmed up, but the oven was full. We popped the pie into her air frier...best pie I have ever had.
I'm a Type 2 diabetic and need very low carb meals. I often bring snack bars, but I might reconsider bringing a bento box next flight. BTW, to get liquids in those tiny bottles, I put the liquid/ sauce in a bowl and then squeeze the air out of the little bottle so it sucks up the maximum amount of liquid into itself. Basically, the reverse of what you do to put the sauce on your food/ drink!
Do you have a video about how you set up that container garden? I am seeing some hoses that look like they irrigate it for you. Would love to see a run through of how you set that up. We are starting from scratch. Many thanks :)
I don’t specifically have a video on how I set up the water system in that container garden but I do have a couple of videos, showing how I set up watering systems for other things and it’s exactly the same. Although to be honest with you, I would probably change how I’m watering. My container garden and put in soaker hoses.😊
Yes, especially now on domestic flights in the United States they don’t serve anything. Plus we are on a specialized diet so we have to make sure we pack what we can eat and stay healthy.😊🙏❤️
Thank you so much 😊 Well, they were real bloody Mary’s in the sense that they were the mix and the vegetables, but I cannot have alcohol, so they were virgin🤪 the bento boxes, get packed away, and then used on the trip to store any other food or pack up for picnics❤️🙏😊
