What We're Eating Weekly

avskk

I'm giving myself an unplanned day because I've been getting a little rigid in my planning, then failing to stick to the plan, then beating myself up about it. I've been trying to tell myself "it's fine, it's just a lazy summer day" or "it's fine, you had a good reason to change your dinner plans," but I've been really anxious and guilty and constantly coming in here to tattle on myself. I want to nip this cycle in the bud, so I'm taking a little breather to enjoy food as simply delicious and nourishing. I've been working from home for a few days which has given me time to prep and cook, so I have plenty of stuff already put together, ready to be enjoyed!

Lunch: rice with stir fried ginger sesame broccoli
Dinner: tofurky sandwich on sourdough bread with spicy mustard and romaine, carrot sticks, cucumber spears, an orange
Snack: banana, cherry coke zero

The pumpkin sauce was something I made up because I had a cup of pumpkin puree left over from another recipe! It turned out much better than I thought it would.

I mixed 1 cup of pumpkin puree with 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes), 1 teaspoon cayenne, 1 teaspoon cumin seed, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes [you can probably tell I like it spicy, you can adjust the spice to your own preferences]. I cooked the vegetables all together and then added the sauce and cooked pasta. The sauce coated it all very well. I would not have been able to identify the pumpkin taste -- it tasted sweet like tomato sauce, but in a way that complemented the Asian flavors in the dish. If I made it again I might add a bit of nut butter or PB2. It seems like it would go well with it.

I thought about that, too. If people are still into it I'd be totally happy to do it that way.

I like the daily format, but I tend to post less often because I tend to eat a lot of leftovers.
