You could be forgiven for thinking that Gordon Ramsay popped round to say hello and cooked me dinner, but it was all my own work!Quote:

Ohhhh. I live far from a pure healthy lifestyle, but I do make a point of eating well and know that eating highly processed food along with the lack of exercise will impact your immune system which is why you have posted a few times about being sick for numerous days. As a teacher you are constantly exposed to potential viruses so a good immune system I would think is important. Sure once in a while is fine but virtually all your posts in the dinner thread are from the places I mentioned so its not surprising you get sick easily.Quote:

Enjoy your Dinner.
I thought I was on dinner duty while Lao lady went about her flower arranging but then from the recesses of her hold-all she produced a vegetable and chicken stir fry that she had cooked at home before driving over.

I left the arranging to her this time since she wanted separate bowls after our shared plate was skating around on the tray last time

Bean shoots make a nice healthy change from naughty carbo-noodles for a balanced diet

I was noticing a lot of red birdseye chilli in the mix before my final microwave

And it was indeed a fiery beast that took no prisoners

Even Lao lady had tears and nose running by time she was done

Nice! I love the way she just, 'produced it'.
Fancied something quick n easy, slapdash, a bit different, got to the fridge.
Cooked spaghetti.
A pack of bacon.
Ta Da.
Dirty Spaghetti.

for some reason thought a nice few splashes of lime juice would be a good addition. Hmmm. 50/50 on that result.
Also realized that a few dried chilis would be good, but alas only had ground chili powder.

Prolly 5 minutes from start to finish and nice n carbalicious after a light evening bike ride.
Would do it again. :)
^ Mix in an egg and it's spaghetti carbonara.
Already invented!
Yes, I did think of that when I was eating it. :)

delisherous.
I must admit, I am a fan of that frozen pre-chopped veggie mix.
Chicken is evil though.

Mixed frozen veg fritters.
Mixed frozen vegetable fritters are a quick, crispy snack made by mixing thawed, drained frozen veggies (peas, corn, carrots) with flour, egg, and cheese (optional), then pan-frying until golden. They are easy to make by mixing 150g-200g of frozen vegetables with flour, baking powder, 1 egg, and seasoning.
Sweet.
I will eat it for nostalgia readin because it reminds me of my early days working abroad in Spain.Quote:

So what is it that makes chicken so bad?
Chicken is pretty much the only meat I eat. Not because I especially love it but just because it is the easiest meat to cook.

But I like to see them in separate little piles of my plate, not all mixed up together. Peas and sweetcorn seem to be fine frozen but I always cook carrots from fresh, in big pieces.
And with some semblance of vitamins remainingQuote:

I am no expert on this... but I do know that I couldn't satisfy my pea requirement if relying on fresh peas in Thailand.
Exactly this, fresh frozen retains the good stuff as far as I’m concerned.
@Looper, chicken sends my uric acid through the roof and gives me gout, which ultimately makes me allergic to it.
I eliminated chicken from my diet and I don’t get gout.
It’s only evil to me, don’t worry.

Loads of salad and fresh chicken(apologies Dirk), hits the spot.
£6.50 each,how can they do it so cheap?

Not that I don't absolutely fucking love them myself; I had 2 last week.
