Pandemic Eating

Since mid-March, everyone have been asked to do their part and stay at home so we can hopefully slow the spread of this Cornona Virus (COVID-19). As a result, I spent most of my time at home and cooking/eating on my own. I actually feel better and managed to lose a few pounds and kept my weight pretty consistant. Among some of my favorite single serving meals: Japanese curry with rice. Fried rice. Baked potato with butter sauteed kimchi as topping. *Sounds like a weird combo, but oddly works very well Sauercraut quasadilla. Beef Stew. Pan Fried lemon garlic chicken Brussel Sprouts (baked with bacon) *Highly Recommended Simple noodle soup with veggies and whatever protein (including baloney) with "better than boulion" English muffins made with sour dough starter *I may never go back to store bought. So fluffy ... Lately, since temperature's been dipping, I have been making more soups and stews. My latest was to recycle my previous night's kahlua pork with cabbage over rice. I ended up with several bowls of "jook" the next day. Just so happened that lean pork with thousand year old egg porridge is a classic chinese lunch menu item and I had just bought some thousand year old eggs a couple of weeks prior to. That was very satisfying and I didn't end up getting tired of eating the same thing over and over again. I'll probably be posting some photos eventually ...
