Anyone else living on humous this week? I’m hoping it’s as healthy as I’m wishing it to be because I have been eating it by the bucketful. And why not? Healthy and delicious. Ready instantly, and that gives me an extra 20 minutes to get stuff done today.
Grab a bucket of humous, a bag of crudités, and start dipping. I may or may not have eaten the whole bucket…
When preparing food, I am of course always hoping it will be delicious, but sometimes, something happens and you surpass those hopes and make the best, dish, ever. We made wonton soup last night, for the first time. Our wontons were unorthodox, and our recipe was made up, but someone must have spilled a bit of magic into the pot because it was amazing.
I chopped up some leftover pork tenderloin, baby shrimp, and ginger, mixed it with an egg, a dash of Bragg’s soy sauce and some rice vinegar. We wrapped spoonfuls of this mixture in wonton wrappers and dropped them into a pot of boiling chicken stock, along with chopped bok choy, green onions, and carrots. All the way through dinner I was hoping there would be some soup leftover for lunch. My dream came true.
