Lunch and Dinner

I tried my best to figure out what to eat for lunch today. I remembered that I had left over frozen shrimp from having hot pot for Chinese New Year. But that by itself wasn't enough. I made some rice as well, and I really wanted to use a veggie from the box and figured I can use the lettuce as wraps. Here's what it looked like:


I pulled out some leaves and washed them. Rice was made in a rice pot and I cooked the shrimp on the pan with some minced garlic. Mmmmmm, garlic



The wrap. I didn't put any hot sauce because I just wanted to taste how they were naturally, but I think it would complement the wrap.

Tonight's dinner involved some leftover rice, chicken I bought at the store, and an awesome recipe for Swiss chard I found online. I came out really well though I should watch how much salt I put on.


The recipe was simple. The only ingredients you need are the Swiss chard, some salt, pepper, Parmesan, and a tablespoon of cream. The only thing I needed to get from the store was the cream as I stole the Parmesan from my housemate =D.

All it took was a series of visits in the oven and I ended up with some delicious veggies. It tasted savory and buttery, but didn't ask for much which is awesome.

Extra dollars for this dish: $1.99 for the cream.

I wonder what I'll make tomorrow =D
