I'm just ducking in with a quick dinner idea for you. My throat is killing me and Mom left yesterday, please lower your flags to half-staff and mourn with me. I have the best mom in the whole world. We had so much fun living life together. I'm sad, but not THAT sad, because she's coming back for 10 days in May, I can't wait.
The bathrooms are looking good and I hope to show them to you soon... but for now... how 'bout a quick dinner idea. Are pictures ok?

You'll need a little of this:
And a little of that:
And some of this {minus the frozen sauce packet} or you could go buy carrots, red peppers, edamame, baby corn, celery, onion, water chesnuts and mushrooms. Then you could clean them and chop them... or you could just buy them all frozen and ready to go! :
Oh, and if you like meat, some of this too {cooked chicken, pork, or beef}:
Mix it all together after each has cooked and you'll get this:I used 3 chicken breasts, about 1/2 the bag of vegetables, about 1/2 the bottle of Stir-Fry Sauce and 1/2 a box of each type of spagetti {whole wheat and regular}.
I got all the ingredients from Walmart and while I was there I bought this too:
See you soon with bathroom pictures....
I have such a love/hate relationship with Walmart. I hate feeling like I'm putting small businesses out of business but I love their prices. Their food prices are often a dollar less for items than at the grocery store. When you're buying groceries those dollars add up.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your shirt!
ReplyDeletelove your shirt! thanks for buying me one too.
ReplyDeletethat stir fry sounds yummmmy! it'd also be really good over Jasmine rice, I know you like making your own, but that Uncle Bens Ready Rice in the pouch 90 secs in the microwave- YUMMY!!!!

ReplyDeleteThat is so funny--I bought that shirt a few weeks ago and thought 1)am I the only person that is going to think this is cute? 2)is everyone going to make fun of me for buying my shirt at Walmart? So, thank you Darby for making me feel justified! I happen to LOVE that shirt! Hope yall have a Happy Easter!
