Bento Box Salads

On last week's show the Dim Sum Lunchbox morphed into a Bento Box. I made a tuna and wakame salad, rice balls seasoned with bonito and plum flake mix and a carrot and lemon side salad with seeds and nuts.
The carrot salad was particularly good:
1 carrot thinly sliced or grated into long strips
Lemon rind thinly sliced into strips (just a little, 10 strips at most)
Handful of seed mix (pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, hemp seeds, sunflower etc)
For the dressing mix soya sauce, rice wine vinegar, lemon juice, sugar and three drops of sesame oil.
