I’ve been cooking but hurried and frantic. Last night salmon, roasted carrots, quinoa and green beans.
Tonight, green onion stir fried till crispy with ground pork and noodles with a side of mung bean salad. I forgot how fast and easy it is to grow mung beans. Love that fresh crunch!
Finally felt like lifting a cooking spoon →
Beets with Green Goddess
No cooking tonight. Finished a Job . Two frozen Turkey pot pies , Cole slaw . Wine . Very satisfied with the outcome of the project . Cheers 
A quick meal tonight - coconut curry chicken soup, using up the last of my chicken soup and meat.
Broccoli slaw and rice noodles, plus shredded chicken at the bottom.
Bought a rotisserie chicken from Costco
removed skin and roast them in oven at 350 degrees per fellow Onions advise. Came out crispy, yummy!
Rest of chicken, I shredded to make chicken enchilada
Melted half a stick of butter, made a roux , added grated aged cheddar cheese and a small amount of 2% milk which I added to the shredded chicken
Took out frozen chili sauce from freezer, also frozen roast tomatoes ( 3 hours following Kenji Lopez’s suggestion), added chipotle and adobo sauce for more kicks, sauce added to the chicken as well
Assembled that with more cheddar cheese and sauce sprinkled over the flour tortilla,
Baked in oven till bubbly. No Pictures, son in. a hurry to eat as well as having a worker around the house.
try a bacon press. They come as heavy as 4.5 lbs. I keep one on my plancha, not difficult to clean either
One of my favorite comfort 101 meals!
what kind of noodles were used?
Was shopping for dumpling wrapper, next to it were COOKED soft yakisoba noodles as well as HK style noodles . I have never used yakisoba and when I cook noodles for lomein, I use the dried skinny form .Called company in NY today as I want to use them. I was advised to rinse yakisoba with warm water, then drain rather than microwave from direction in package, add sauce and meat and vegetables . As for the HK style noodles, they are fresh UNCOOKED and to cook them in boiling water till cooked ( longer than the yakisoba noodles ) drain and pan fried in a single layer for a few minutes till they are crispy , flip over fry till crispy, then add sauce, vegetables and meat that are cooked separately. I hate crispy noodles served in restaurant. I plan to just cook them in boiling water, then stir fry them and then mix them with with separately cooked chicken and vegetables.
It looks like your noodle is not the crispy HK style but Cantonese style?
Was not sure if gracieggg would have the chance to answer re her noodles so, I went ahead and cooked my precooked Yakisoba noodles. I placed them in hot water or about 5 minutes, drain them, then added sauce ( soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, XO , mirin, splash of tabasco and oyster sauce with scallops
Had marinaded skinless chicken thighs last night with soy sauce, cider vinegar, black bean with garlic sauce, XO then stir fry them today with EVOO, garlic , ginger and shallot.
Set aside, in same wok, stir fry broccoli slaw with same sauce as above.
Mix them all together, had some spicy chili crisp on the side
Also roasted broccolini in oven for brief minutes as side dish.
luscious!!!
I haven’t been in the kitchen for what seems like forever, as I’ve been out every night or not eating. Tonight the BF served up a small plate of meat & mushroom sauce over garganelli pasta, with a cute little salad of odds and ends.
ETA: oops, fixed the pics. 
My Grocery Outlet had these precooked rice noodles, quantities for two dinners per package, at 2/$1. I bought one to try and found it excellent, a time saver and quite good quality. Went back and bought half a dozen. A wonderful help on “what to eat when there’s nothing to eat” nights.
Plain, unseasoned cooked rice noodle.
Caught Bdwy’s Jagged Little Pill yesterday and enjoyed beef shanks with mushroom risotto at Nick & Stef’s during restaurant week and a outstanding creme caramel with diced apples and squash at State Grill.
Food in packets was tonight’s inadvertent theme.
Salmon with chipotle and other things, en papillote. Sweet corn tamale stuffed with chile and cheese. Spinach sautéed with garlic and red chile flakes.
I realized I really enjoy the flavor of chipotle, have to remember to use it more.
Also baked my friend’s kid an orange olive oil cake. Will pick up and cook dumplings for him tomorrow and drop the lot off.
I’m your friend too!
After a great day . Some celebrating on my bff’s birthday . Easy peasy local rib eye with sides . Cheers.
