"Fast Food"

I’m playing around with the old digital camera again, but still seem to take crappy pictures. I know a lot of it is the lighting in the kitchen and for some reason my hands shake when I take the picture. Oh well.

Tonight’s dinner came together pretty easily, which was good since I was tired from running errands after work.

I’d bought some Trader Joe’s Boolkogi a few weeks back and decided a couple days ago that it was time to pull it out of the freezer. It’s basically Korean-style marinated sliced beef. I just grilled up on on our grill pan (leaving the mess for the hubby to clean up!) and it took less than 10 minutes. I had one of those bags of ready to steam broccoli from the produce department, so that got nuked for 4 minutes while the beef cooked. Then I had those handy pre-portioned brown rice cups I’ve been finding at Kroger on and off. A minute later in the microwave and dinner was ready! Healthy, delicious, and fast — my kind of weeknight dinner.

And of course I packed leftovers in a bento for lunch tomorrow. This is one of the last boxes I bought way back in January, can’t remember if I’d used it yet. It’s pretty small, but if packed right should keep me full for a few hours.
