just eating again.....

still trying to think of simple meals to cook during the "witching hours", lol

Tues: brown rice with oyakodon. My first attempt ever. It went very well if I do say so myself!!

Wed: Lasagna (after making it last Fri for friends who came over for lunch, I am a bit addicted again. And the fact that I only had one small piece then, and it was all gone so J didnt even get any meant that I could make it again in such a short turn around without feeling bad about cooking the same ol thing again ;)
And of course, L just LOVES his lasagna ;)

Thurs: Thai stir fry veges, and gyoza. Followed this recipe, however realised half way into it that we only had one tbs of nam pla left, so substitued with soy, AND we had NO garlic!! Arrgh. Still it worked out quite nice, so I must try it again with all ingredients accounted for, lol!

Fri: tonight is going to be "wa" our Friday night frugality. Rice with sanma (the lovely Pacific saury), still have plenty of chinese cabbage so something with that in it, and whatever I can scrape together at the 11th hour. My goal is to NOT give in and go shopping for "just that one extra ingredient" to make dinner.

eat those veges

when J rang up after work, and asked what was for dinner, I said veges. I wasnt joking:

* salad with lettuce, mizuna, red and yellow capsicums, tomato, avocado, cucumber and carrot
* brocolli with egg/mayo/shirasu topping (grilled under the toaster)
* mushrooms, asparagus and bacon in butter/soy
* tofu
and rice

ok not totally vege, but you get the drift...no main meat dish.
Even K enjoyed her brocolli ;)

Still got those couple dozen eggs to do something with aaarrrggghhhh!! quiche tomorrow, maybe??! lol
