Combined effort bento lunch that we prepped over the weekend: Slow-cooked beef, kale and sweet potato stew! Tastes even better after sitting in the fridge overnight, especially when accompanied by a crusty baguette to sop up the yummy gravy...

Home-made: Hamburg Steak + stir-fried veggies


Cooked for the Missus: Hamburg steak, stir fried vegetables and brown rice. Yup, you read that right - I cooked it. All by myself, with only a little help from the Missus. Thanks for the recipe, for cutting most of the veg up, for the direction for all 3 dishes, for hand-holding during the actual cooking process, and for taking over when the veg need more professional stir-fry management. Other than that, I hope you enjoyed the meal I cooked all by myself! Lol...
(Just wanted to say that there was beetroot in the patty, which is why the cooked patty still looks pink beneath the charred exterior).

Home-made: Italian Pasta & Bean Soup


It's been a while since I last posted about the Missus' fantastic healthy cooking. She's been nursing a broken finger for the past few weeks. However, after being inspired by an Italian bean soup recipe recently, she decided she was fine enough to get cooking again, and this is her version of Italian Pasta and Bean Soup. Just one bowl is enough for your entire day's vegetable and fibre requirement!
Pasta e ceci maxed out with spinach, celery, carrots, onions, lentils and tomatoes!

Home-made: Funky Sandwiches

 For lunch bento this week, we have egg whites (with a couple yolks) scrambled with minced chicken, baby chard and plenty of black pepper, nestled in wholegrain Ozery thins.
I thought this concoction was super tasty! 9/10!

Sandwich 2 comprises smoked salmon and mashed avocado on gigantic foccacia buns. Both sammies are accompanied by homemade quick pickles in honey balsamic, on top on beds of mizuna and baby sweet pea sprouts.
Avocado and salmon is a safe bet that I can eat without complaint anytime, everytime!
