Noodles with green.

It’s been one of those weeks where I tried to get everything done. Except for grocery shopping. That didn’t get done. The only vegetable in the fridge was a cucumber and the only fruit was a lime. I found one lonely package of udon in the cupboard, some frozen shrimp in the freezer and luckily no matter how far behind I am on grocery shopping I will never ever run out of condiments.

An onion from the garden fried with shrimp. Udon warmed in the pan and everything tossed in a sauce of toasted sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, chilli paste, peanut butter, minced garlic and chicken bouillon. Garnished with chives from the garden, and the lonely fruit and vegetable from the crisper. Green chopsticks to add one more green to the plate.

I had a hankering for sushi today, but not all the ingredients. What I did have, made for some yummy sort of sushi-esque hand rolls. My (probably obvious to everyone but me) tip of the day, is when checking to see how fresh the powdered wasabi is… don’t stick your nose right in the jar and take a big sniff. Enough said.

Leftover quinoa topped with avocado slices, pre-cooked baby shrimp and mayonnaise, all wrapped up in a sheet of nori. Served with a side of soy sauce and wasabi… for dipping… not sniffing.
