I was going to cook a noodle stir-fry tonight, but then I remembered I had some rice leftover that I really needed to eat up (Yes, really! Can’t waste rice!). I’ve been very conscious of making sure that I eat vegetables while Jac is away (if I didn’t consciously think about it I reckon my […]
Sunday arvo. I’ve done the laundry, swept the floor and emptied the bins. I’ve just had some lunch – my mum’s homemade lasagna. She gave me a generous serve to take home on Friday night. It’s got a tasty sauce with lots of meat and mushrooms. I don’t eat dairy products very often as I […]
Yep, that’s right. I had a bowl of minchee and rice for breakfast this morning! Mum gave me a small container of minchee to take home last night, and I ate it this morning with some freshly cooked rice. I would eat this every morning if I could! Now it’s time to think about dinner.
More SPAM from the same tin as the previous meal. I fry the cubed SPAM, add garlic and chopped green beans, then champignons, then the rice, and then an egg. As you can see, I tend to cook the variations of the same dishes for myself. I enjoy them, which is the main thing.
Of course, if I’m cooking for myself, it’s not too long before SPAM makes an appearance. Four slices of SPAM, which I fry until they are browned with crispy edges on both sides. While the SPAM is frying, I break a couple of eggs into a bowl, add a sprinkle of white pepper and a […]
After seeing the pictures of fish and chips on a couple of my favourite blogs recently (see here and here), I began craving fish and chips myself. So on Tuesday I wandered down to our local fish and chip shop. I got myself a fisherman’s basket, which consists of two pieces of fish, a handful […]
Our pantry is well-stocked with Heinz Big Eat tinned meals. As you know, I had the Ravioli Bolognese on Saturday night. This morning, I had the All Day Breakfast, which consists of baked beans, sausage, bacon bits, tomato chunks, potato and mushrooms. Now it’s time to concentrate on work. Edit: As you can see from […]
I just love the Melbourne Cup. I’m not into going to the races all tarted dressed up wearing ridiculous looking hats and drinking too much champagne (and spending too much money!). But I love watching the race on the telly and trying to pick the winner. In the couple of weeks leading up the big […]
I really hate having lots of dishes to wash, and so I tend to go for one-pot/one-wok/one-pan meals. For dinner tonight I stir-fried lettuce, green beans, baby corn, onion and garlic with light and dark soy sauce. I threw in the fried tomato and bacon leftover from breakfast, which I chopped up into bite-sized pieces. […]
I woke up craving a cooked breakfast, so I got out of bed and got cracking. I scrambled my eggs with plenty of butter with my right hand… …and fried the bacon and tomato with my left hand (note: there’s more bacon and tomato here than I ate for breakfast. I’ll be using them later […]
