Thursday's Quick Lunch

Some yummy quick lunch for today!

For today I made fried polenta topped with sauteed peppers, onions, mushrooms, and garlic, with some marinara sauce, and freshly ground salt and pepper. 

It was delicious, I might have to make seconds! :)

Strange Bedfellows- AND Unscrewuppable Stirfry Sauce

So I awoke this morning to this face staring at me. The little curly tail twitching head cocked wanting attention... My roommates Dog had nuzzled her way into my bed, and curled down next to me, wanting snuggles.

Meanwhile, down the bed, another family friend was doing her best to take up as much room as humanly possible, trying to retain the heat left by Matthew as he got up to go to work.

Why am I not working, you may very well ask.

Well, I brought back from vacation a quite nasty cold/flu thing, as well as a broken toe (Ouchies!) so I'm stuck in the house for the week, but it's not so bad, as We're moving to a new place next week and I'm supposed to be packing for that. (How much is actually getting done is besides the point!

I also decided that I needed to make my ultimate comfort food, a stirfry.

Now, I make stirfries so often, I tend to forget that some people may be unfamiliar with the basic anatomy of a stirfy, ie what should be put in it, what ingredients to use, what sauce to use, etc.

It's super simple.

Basically, you can put anything you want in a stirfry (except mashed things, obviously, but I'm going to assume we're all reasonable intelligent people!) This includes whatever sauce you want. But if you're unsure of what sort of sauce you want to chuck in there, I've got a sure-fire delicious stirfry sauce that I've never once heard a complaint about!
