Let’s have Japanese food tonight, ok?

Do you want to?

I want to. 

Full Japanese dinner

It’s easy, I promise!  Today starts 10 full weeks of summer school insanity so….get ready for ALL THE EASY RECIPES to come spewing out of me.  Seriously – there’s no other way to get through this together.

So, today.  Easy-peasy-Japanesy, even though I hate that expression and this is kind of Asian fusion food….ok?  Make sense?

I knew you’d understand.

Last Wednesday I made this for my sister and her friend, so this Wednesday I’m showing it to you.

Makes sense, right?Plate of chicken

It does.

One vegan dish and one healthy chicken dish and one yummy salad.  All easy and fast,  and together makes for a totally balanced meal.

We need to eat more veggies, people. 

At least that’s what they tell me.

I like veggies but, um, sometimes I wish they tasted like wine and cheese.  I’m such a brat, though.

If fish with parmesan crust and dill isn’t your thing, and you thought my cornish game hen “lovebirds” were dumb, I totally get it.

Some people need meat on fancy occasions.  It’s ok.

I’m not mad that you think the other stuff I tell you to cook is lame.

Last year about this time I made some steak with blue cheese sauce.

Then, I told you to make it for Valentine’s day, along with several other suggestions.

It was the most popular Valentine’s idea of 2012.

I’m not feeling like we should reinvent the wheel, are you?  I can reinvent it another day.

Today, though, let’s talk steak.

Everyone has to eating dinner, right?

I do.

Sometimes, though, I’m really freaking hungry and really freaking lazy all at the same time and it’s so hard to motivate myself to make dinner but I know I should because eating out isn’t healthy or budget-friendly but IDON’TWANNACOOK so….

…it’s an internal battle.

When that happens, I need fast, easy things that aren’t going to take too much brain power to get on the table.

Let’s make a meal like that tonight, ok?  Fish with Lemon Caper sauce, Quinoa with veggies, and an easy salad.  Here’s the game plan:

Bake until crispyHappy Friday!

It’s raining here and I’m pretty sure my work week lasted approximately 8 days.  What about yours?  I had several people confuse yesterday with Friday, so I’m glad that it’s ACTUALLY Friday now. Phew.  I’m pooped.

This isn’t about me, though.  This is about moussaka.  Do you know what it is?  It’s Greek.  It’s like lasagna…but without noodles…and with eggplant…and lamb..and WHOA is it good.

There are thousands of ways to make it, and I’m not in any way pretending that this is the most authentic method.  It IS a delicious method, though, so you should try it!  There’s cheese, too.

I’m going to be eating.

I’m going to be resting.

I’m going to be yoga….ing.

Anyway.

Do you live in the South?

Around these parts, pretty much nothing can be planned on Wednesday nights except church.

If you aren’t a Wednesday-night church-goer, though, I can pretty much guarantee you have SOMETHING going on tonight that’s going to prevent you from spending 3 hours in the kitchen making dinner, right?

Thought so.

Remember this, guys?

It’s so delicious!

Seriously.  I love this.  I don’t know how to describe it, but it has veggies, it has chicken (if you want it to), it has cream of mushroom AND chicken soup.

It has cheese.

It is really everything I love in the world.

Let’s make something tonight with lots of veggies, shall we?

We shall!

My vote is some couscous with herbs, a really fresh salad with cheese, and some grilled veggies with tofu.

That sounds good, right?

I know.

I’m starving, too.
