Adventures in Cooking
I decided to blog about food more, I love food, I love cooking, nutrition, and eating!!!! The following meal is in no way one of my best:
I decided before my last final of the semester that I needed to plan meals again, first reason being, I eat healthier when I eat dinner, otherwise it tends to be candy plus ice cream, and maybe some food at about 9 or 10, second of all and much more importantly my husband perpetually looses weight and looks like he belongs in a concentration camp, his self made dinner consists of a peanut-butter sandwich and yogurt, much better than my improve dinner. Anyway being the aspiring nutritionist/dietitian and cook that I am I want to blog about food. So I started making a list at work, my brain likes to be doubly if not triply occupied. I started asking coworkers for some ideas because I feel like I always make the same variations of a constant theme when if comes to dinner. Peppers, mushrooms, and cheese integrated in some fashion to make either, spanish, asian, or italian food. My coworkers first suggestion was a broccoli chicken caserole. About a week later it finally came into frution. Most recipes I found had mayonaise in it, sounded gross to me, so I chose to just throw it all together my self:
1 C brown rice
enough broccoli to cover the bottom of the pan
! can of cream of chicken soup
all the mushrooms I had left in my fridge
a really big breast of chicken
some milk poured on top
and about 1/4 of a white onion
and 2 T of butter shhh don't tell TJ
It turned out very tasty however there was a bit too much chicken and not enough rice for my tastes but with an extra cup of rice I think it would have gone perfect.
TJ just walked in the door and his eyes got all big with excitement when I pointed to dinner, yeah!!!
