Wed. MAr 20
Feeling like: spring break needs to be here faster.
This was… brunch?
1) Quinoa: if you don’t know how to make quinoa by now, I suggest catching up on some previous citchen khronicles posts
2) Super good eggplant: I cut the eggplant into flat pieces, sprinkled them with salt, and then left them on paper towels for about 15 minutes to get the excess water out. Skipped this step last time I made eggplant, and it is well worth the effort. Then I cubed the eggplant, and pan fried with olive oil, salt, rosemary, paprika, and a healthy portion of garlic until (seen above) the eggplant is melty soft and just starting to brown and the garlic is crispy.
3) Everything else in here is super straight forward- chopped cucumber, tomato, red onion, olive oil, salt, pepper, balsamic glaze.
Sweet treat of the day: Late lunch? Snack?
You guessed it- yogurt, strawberries, frozen bluebs, some cereal kinda stuff.
Dinner:
Eggplant from earlier, green bell, mozzarella balls, red onion, dismal attempt at poached egg, garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, tiny bit of balsamic. I also had some toast with butter, but no photo!
Ended the day with some mediocre microwave popcorn and Brooklyn 99. Happy Wednesday!
