A day in which I make something delicious is a good day






I made a Caribbean stir fry with my mom tonight. First we stir-fried squash, plantains, cabbage, onions, ginger, carrots, sweet pepper, and green beans - then we mixed in cashews and noodles - then over everything, coconut milk. Delicious.

I love stir frying.

  1. I'm really picky about my stir-fry. In order to like it, I have to like all the vegetables. Since that rarely happens, I rarely like stir-fry. Darn pickiness.

  2. Priya and Hate This And I'll Love You - Thanks, it was/is! :) I'm going to have some leftovers for lunch...yum.

    Q - You should make your own with all your favorite veggies, hm?

    PinkAppleCore - I just used Ramen, which was one of the kinds the recipe suggested, but I might spring for nicer noodles next time. :P

  8. Faith - The things that look like bananas are the plantains, actually!

  10. I made medieval soup today. Just carrots, celery, onions, white beans, lemon juice and chicken broth. But very nourishing and yummy. I love plantains - especially plantain chips (salty).
