Well, here we are.
It was a busy weekend with family, eating, cooking, socializing. Came back on the redeye but couldn’t sleep last night for obvious reasons, so currently in zombie mode. I did cook to distract myself last night, so at least there’s some food at hand to stress eat.
Actuals weekend through yesterday:
– Big Diwali dinner, mostly catered
– Family Diwali dinner, homemade by team effort
– Pizza birthday dinner
– Mac & cheese, broccoli, egg fried rice
– Masala pot roast with homemade bread
– Roast chicken (thighs) with mashed potatoes
Ideas for the rest of the week:
— Chicken quesadillas or green arroz con pollo (either Bayless with poblano or Jinich with spinach) to use up the roast chicken
— Cheater’s Kathi rolls (flour tortilla, egg, frozen kababs, pickled onions, zhoug)
— Some kind of pulao / biryani – chickpeas, chicken, or shrimp
— Want to repeat Shiu mai burgers but I might make meatballs and steam them to serve over rice. Might also try chicken thighs instead of pork.
— Still want to eat those Korean beef and tofu patties / wanja jeon, will use either the NYT recipe or the Maangchi I’ve made previously .
Stay strong.
