What's On The Plates Sunday December 29 - 2024 Saturday January 4 2025

This is InnovAsian orange chicken.
I love it.
I made the rice yesterday and just reheated it in the microwave.
Meant to buy snow peas, but found out I grabbed sugar snaps instead 🙃 lol
I steamed those, then tossed them in a little butter and low sodium soy sauce.
Ordinarily..I remove the strings on the peas.
I'll just eat them like I do edamame.

I sautéed some shrimp and mini peppers in sesame oil, then added steamed broccoli to the pan, with a little teriyaki sauce.
Leftover rice underneath.
Love this.
I'll be taking leftovers to work tomorrow night 😋
Someone asked me once, do you eat the shrimp tails? No.
Normally I take them off, if not - I bite them down to the tails and discard.

... once I have a toothy grip on the shrimp, I squeeze the tail and pull-- tail slides off and I get the heart of the tail !
But I ALWAYS forget to bring to the table a small dish for the discarded tails...
That being said, I rarely cook shrimp "Tail On", unless it's the big'ns; Jumbo, Tiger Prawns, etc.
 
This afternoon was boring, all my chores were done. So I decided to make a brunch for Jon and I, then snacks later to make up for it. My homemade pancakes with some giant sausage patties I had picked up recently.

Doesn't look like much food in the pic, but we both stuffed ourselves and only ate about half of what I made.

Looks like a lot to me! Pancakes are wicked filling!

I think it all looks delicious.
I love fluffy pancakes and haven't made them in years.

Beautiful!
 
Leftover manicotti. Tina is sick with a cold, so I am getting to comfort her. I also don't want to cook right new. I will make her chicken noodle soup. like Lipton chicken noodle in the box.
Feel better Tina. Jimmy, I make that soup. When done cooking, I take it off heat and I stir in a scrambled egg.
