What's For Dinner #117 - Time to Dig in the Dirt! Edition - April 2025

My poor dude was mighty hungover today, which made our mid-day workout even more fun than usual :smiley:

We treated ourselves to a taco lunch afterwards, then ran some errands — like picking up a brooder’s dozen (that’s 9 eggs) from my buddy, cashing last night’s check so I can pay my guys at the private party we’re playing tomorrow, and getting groceries for our last week stateside :partying_face:

WFD was a pork noodle stir-fry: I had the other half of the pork tenderloin to use up, as well as some bok choy in the crisper that had def seen better days. I grabbed a small container of sliced shiitake at the store to add to the wok party, which started off with garlic, ginger, and enough Thai bird chilies to make us hack while I was cooking (yet we still needed kumquat hot sauce — I need to remind myself to add half of them later in the cooking process so their fire isn’t all gone/in our lungs), then added the onions, bok choy & shiitake. Removed those, then fried up the pork, added the veg & shroom mix back in, and finally the noodz. I used “oriental-style” egg noodles we sometimes add to our hot pot at the end, and they worked out lovely. They do not take 2 min to cook, however, regardless of what the packaging says. Try more like 10 min
 :roll_eyes:

Recipe was very, very loosely based on this one. Love a fridge clean-out meal that comes together like that.
