Noodles on a cold night

One of my favorite winter night dishes is soup. Reminds me of home and a wood stove heating the house. Of snow filled days and coming in to have a cup of chicken noodle. Now it is a little harder to find healthy soups. We make our own most of the time but when I want to make a more heart health soup with the taste of everyone's favorite Ramen I use cellophane bean thread noodles. Gluten free, 180 cals, 43 grams of carbs and 0 down the line for everything else. I spice it up with dried red pepper flakes and some low sodium soy sauce. I added a little left over wasabi. So good. Hot and spicy. Check out the noodles the next time you are in your local Asian market. God bless, thanks for reading and keep your stomach warm.

Lunch time

I decided to make a little deer slider on homemade bread with some some Aj Jus on the side. Cooked in garlic, a little soy sauce and onion. Not too fancy but it tasted good. Rather let it sit overnight in the soy but I was hungry. God bless, thanks for reading and see you at the table.

Winter chill

Vegan slow cooker chilli on this cold rainy winter night. Tomatoes, pinto, black and kidney beans, one onion, one cup green chilies, one medium jalapeño, chilli powder, cumin, and a bit of mole. Its been cooking since 1 pm. Warm comfort food that fills you up and keeps you warm all night. WARNING!!! Will cause gas and you might not want to eat it on a work night. God bless, thanks for reading and see you at the table.

Sushi for lunch

I had to treat myself Friday to some #sushi at #Aki in Hanover Pa.  It was really good a great price.  3 rolls for 10.50 and I got a 4th to top me off along with a small salad.  I ordered the spicy crab, California roll, Phill roll and the eel skin.  The ell skin was my favorite.  It was crunchy and warm and was not fishy at all.  None of the rolls were bad at all don't get me wrong.  Next time I will have to try the #sashimi.  I so far have not had that I did not like.  If you have read any of my other blog posts you will know I am not shy with the food I eat.  I will try anything once.  Sorry this is not a long post but it was a very simple lunch yet very delicious.  God bless, thanks for reading and see you at the fish tank.

Sheetz run

This morning was a cold one here in Pennsylvania. On my way to work I had to stop to get gas and where is my place of choice?  #Sheetz. For those who don't know what that is let me tell you. It is only the best place on earth to get fast food cheep. They have everything. And the best part is they are open 24/7. Well I use to get the breakfast sandwiches a few times a week. Now that I am watching my sodium I had to sacrifice that meal. Well being a cold morning I was going to get a hot tea till I remembered that they started selling Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate. So I said "self go for it" I was not disappointed in the least. Whole milk, chocolate and peanut butter all in one. It was a melted Recess Peanut Butter cup in a cup. What would I change about it? Buy a large next time and a little less peanut butter. It was very rich toward the end but very tasty. If you are near a Sheetz I suggest you try one. I will again. God bless, thanks for reading and see you at the table.
