Well, I ended up making oyster stuffing, which I am freezing and saving for Sunday supper. I love oyster stuffing and haven’t had it in quite a while and we’re having baked chicken and mash on Sunday, so the stuffing would go perfect with that.
But… you said they were baked? I associate greasy spring rolls with ones that are fried. I had a spring roll yesterday, if it makes you feel any better, and mine was definitely fried
I don’t feel too awful bad, however, as two came in a pack and I only ate one. Gave the other one to my kid.
The worst part of deep-fried foods - besides the calories, of course - is the fat used for frying. If you make things like that at home, at least you know what type of oil you’re using. When you buy them from a restaurant, you don’t know if they’re using heart-healthy oils or loads of vegetable oils that are full of saturated and/or hydrogenated fats.
Oh! Well that explains it, then, frozen spring rolls are already pre-fried. Okay, I thought maybe you’d made your own and baked them instead of frying them to make them a little more healthy.
Today its a roast of:
That sounds delicious. The baked veg sounds perfect, I think I’ll do that for lunch on my next day off. Just dump a whole bunch of veg into a pan and toss 'em in the oven. Nothing better than roasted vegetables, adding a little butter, salt & pepper and then roasting them to browned perfection. I like it when the butter caramelizes a little bit onto the veggies.
I usually make my own soup these days—but just plain tomato—so I am widening my recipes…
fresh salmon for me tonight,grated carrot and apple…but forgot to buy an avacado…
I had a bad 'cado experience recently. Bought 2 big beautiful Florida avocados (I prefer them to Hass) and although the skin was still a pretty bright green, the insides of BOTH of them were brown and disgusting. I was seriously disappointed. But then, like an idiot, I bought them from a store that’s notorious for ‘hit or miss’ avocados.
I love fish. Baked, broiled, fried, pan-seared, etc. One of my favorite things to do is quickly pan-sear a tuna steak on both sides, leaving it rare in the middle, then I put it on a lettuce salad.
I love just about any fish, so I eat both salmon and whitefish. However, salmon, sardines, tuna, or any oily fish is best for your health. So Mariana, you’re consuming the good stuff
I also love monkfish. Fell in love with that stuff the first time I tried it. It’s very different from any fish I’ve ever eaten. In fact the man at the seafood counter said many people call it “poor man’s lobster” because it has a similar texture and taste to lobster. It’s wonderful stuff, but I can’t find it often. It’s not a regular fish sold here, it’s a once-in-a-while delicacy.
I’m just having sandwich and soup for lunch. It was something easy to throw together. Don’t know what I’m having for my dinner, either. I’m having one of those indecisive days where nothing is thrilling me, so I’m eating just to eat. Which is stupid. I should take this opportunity to fast for a day or something. But then if I do that, my stomach will start hurting. Food makes the pain go away.
