Sorry for the two days of absence. I have been out and about.
Last night after my afternoon of shopping with my friend Rachel, I looked in my fridge and saw the same bare refrigerator I posted the day before. My husband and I just didn't have any time to head to the market. Yes, I was shopping but by the time I was through I lacked any energy to fight the 'afterwork' crowd at the supermarket. I know you feel me...
My husband had made some white rice in the 'ol rice cooker. He also found a jar of gourmet Italian Tuna we had tucked away and made himself a tasty little dish with both ingredients. Rob's from Hawaii so he's introduced me to some fabulous Asian delicacies.
One such condiment is furikake. This is a Japanese seasoning that consists of a mixture of dried and ground fish, sesame seeds, chopped seaweed, sugar, salt, and may or may not contain MSG. We definitely get the non-MSG. He sprinkled some of the furikake on his tuna and rice. He added a little soy sauce from our extra sushi orders and that was dinner.
I can't have yellowfin tuna due to its high mercury level for pregnant women. So I scrounged around for an unopened box of tofu. I took some of the veggie scramble from the other day, sans egg, and heated that up with
the tofu. I placed it over the rice. I added a little sesame oil, soy sauce, and furikake. It was filling and delicious. I'm not sorry to say I had the same thing for breakfast this morning.
Now there really is nothing left in the house but left over rice, frozen veggies and some peanut butter. Hmm... That does not sound like an appetizing meal. No excuse, off to the market tomorrow.
