Another simple dinner, keepin it different with little touches, whole chicken breast fried in olive oil with an asian ginger/lemon pepperish seasoning lots of it til it got sort of crusted then some A1 there splashed underneath.
veggie alfredo action on the side.
you'll notice i do that a lot, same old veggie mix, same old alfredo sauce, sometimes mixed with a tinge of this or that and it might sound boring but its best to look at it this way, this is the part of the meal that is replacing the carby starchy action, this is your bread/pasta/mashed potato etc... same old boring base you have with most meals only this tastes much much better and can easily be mixed with some of your entries for a change up (like i like to chop up the brats and mix them in sometimes while keeping them all decorative and whole others) biggie is that not only does this replace that carb action as the side dish belly filler it also replaces that really easy part of the meal weeknight cooking can scarcely ask much of you in the fancy entre dept, rackin your noggin over the side dish just aint happinin so here's your solution.
chicken came out of one of those huge bags from costco, i'd say this is probably something like a $3 meal again not ramen cheap and man do i know that its not easy doin 3 when you've got $2 key is to not beat yourself up.
Not just because "be nice to yourself" all stuart smalley action but because what happens is you give up, and when you do finally get 12 extra cents to rub together on payday you reward your lengthy sacrifice with a trip to taco bell where natch the spouse and the kids want some too and suddenly you have a carload of unhealthy food and sure you 'only' dropped $20 on that but..... thats a bag of frozen chicken that will last you to next payday.
that bag will quickly look like boring drudgery waiting to happen in comparison to that fast food meal but just look at the punum on this meal right here! this bitch was the noms and like on a tuesday night, i can barely get something as good as this for $25 a plate going out god forbid i get a drink or appetizer or...
so big factor is to no just throw feed down your chow hole, do it up, take a sec, add some spice, make it pretty on the plate like a boss, you'll feel spoiled, you'll pass up taco bell and go to biggie mart and stock up on more nom foundations and you'll feel great about yourself which is the very first step to...
happy living!
