My typical dinner

For the reassurance of my worrywart mother, a more typical example of what I eat for dinner, aka what I ate tonight:

Some carbs (noodles), some protein (a pork chop in this case), and lots of veggies (sweet pea pods + 空 心 菜). Note how over half the plate is green!

I have to admit, I'm semi-impressed by my own cooking-with-limited-resources skills: I made all this in a single pan. The noodles and pea pods I cooked just using water and a little chicken bouillon, while the pork chop I bought pre-spiced (the black dots are pepper) and lightly pan-fried. The 空 心 菜 (or "tubers," as my cousin Yi-Ning would call them) I also lightly pan-fried with some diced garlic. Yum!

  1. yum, that dinner looks really good and complete. Aunt Mary Ann would be proud.

    thanks for the shout out too, although, I have to say, they're called "tubLers," there's an L in there =)
