My shelf cooking

So about once or twice a week I do shelf cooking now for dinner.

Since we can't go out to eat, and I'm not doing take out, 

shelf cooking is sort of my break.

It will be about 5pm. I just go to my fridge, see what we have, and 

then go to the pantry...and just come up with something on the spot. 

However, tonight I found all I needed in the fridge.

It's kind of fun actually.

For example tonight, 

I put on the counter what I had in the fridge that needed to be eaten.

Some left over baked potatoes that I cut up. That would be my 

base. Then I cut up everything else and made a big stir fry. 

(I decided to opt out of the kidney beans.)

I did cook the bok chow on the side and 

put it on top of our concoction. 

And I had some baby greens that we put dressing on, 

and a mandarin. 

And that was that.

We both loved it. 

Sometimes brown rice will be my base. Or pasta. Or salad. 

Just what ever I have. 

I just noticed that little piece of bread on Den's plate.

I got extra hungry while cooking and found that in the fridge too 

and ate part of it before giving it to him. 

That's why it's so small looking.

I often take bites of his sandwiches too, and he's fine with it.

He's very easy to live with. 💘
