Time Saver

The Mouse wanted vegetables, specifically a stir-fry. For The Mouse to get all the variety of vegetables and prep/cut-up would be kinda time consuming. Luckily, a nearby diner has a vegetable stir-fry dish with rice.

Vegetable Stir-Fry

The seasoning is ginger, garlic, shoyu. Mmm. There is an option to add protein but The Mouse likes it plain. Portion is enough for at least two servings for The Mouse. Dish is kinda prohibitive for The Cat, some of the vegetable variety are onions and bell peppers (does not play well with The Cat’s digestion). But The Mouse did dig out the jicama to add to her bento.

Stay safe and well.

Chef went to Farmers Market

According to Chef H, he frequently visits a Sunday farmers market. Since The Cat and The Mouse were having chef’s choice yesterday (posting to come), he bought a few things.

Torch Ginger

Vegetable Basket

Shanghai cabbage, choi sum, turnip, tomatoes, pineapple, beets, peas, and vanilla beans which he said to soak in vodka. The Mouse will be going to the store soon. Hic. Hee hee.

Thanks Chef!

The Mouse will be busy in the kitchen this week.

Stay safe and well.

Veggies

One of the advantages of The Mouse working from home, convenient access to the kitchen (which could be a disadvantage too, hee hee).

More time to prep/cook vegetables between work (stretching breaks).

Kimchi Noodles

Picked up a package from the warehouse.

Package

Sometimes when packages expire or slightly damaged, warehouse lets the employees take. Still usable, just not sellable. The Mouse took one, no waste. Hee hee.

The Cat’s bowl of noodles.

Bowl of Noods

The Mouse added the celery, bamboo shoot, wakame seaweed.

The package has a packet of kimchi in it. Didn’t use it yet.

The Cat liked the noodle texture, slightly chewy.

Stay safe and well.
