Sneaky broccoli, mixed veggies, and tuna

Sneaky Veggies! Sometimes, I almost have to even fool myself. LOL I try to encourage myself to "play around" with food and therefore eat healthier. 

I cooked the rice and frozen veggies together in a rice cooker. I chopped usual onions, etc. to add to tuna. I also chopped a little bit of fresh broccoli to sneak in a little more nutrition.

Thank you for viewing my blog.

Microwave baked fish and potatoes, with sliced tomato

Microwave baked fish and potatoes, with sliced tomato. 

As you know, I am all about easy, fast cooking. I am not able to stand in the kitchen stirring things all day. Nothing against those that are interested in gourmet cooking, the longer route around.

I simply placed:

1 piece of fish in glass container 

1 or 2 white or red potatoes, cut in pieces and placed in same container as fish

Added some chopped some green onion and sweet, green pepper, and black pepper

 Topped the glass container with saran wrap (punch a few holes in saran wrap with a fork)

Bake in microwave for about 9 minutes

Test to see that fish flakes easily

Slice tomato, add pepper and other spices of your choice, and serve.

One thing I like about this is that it is not messy, using a lot of containers, and it is quick, easy, healthy (for me), and delicious.

Thank you for viewing my blog and please feel free to share.

I do this blog to keep a diary of things I do prepare, my choice--for medical reasons and to share ideas with other people that may prefer simply, easy, and fast meals.

In A Perfect World

In a perfect world there would be no need for military. However, we don't live in a perfect world. I am writing this post to thank our military (Memorial Day) for their service in the past, present, and future. I don't like fighting, nor wish for fighting, but my words below should convey why I appreciate the fact that we do have a military.

On the smaller scale, I was thinking of the conflict even within many households--within the family structure, the conflict in the neighborhoods and the many disputes we hear of among neighbors, the conflict even in the various religious, even in individual churches (congregation/pastor-deacon-congregation/headquarters, and more.

Conflict among various religions/other denominations/belief  (because they differ in some ways and those that may not be religious at all. So, they fuss and fight.

Then, we have the conflicts among worker and workers/employee and bosses/home office/district office/main office. Of course we can't leave out the conflict among politicians, within the party and certainly with 'other party'.

When we consider if all those smaller units, most of them fuss and fight--well, we just know--conflict and fighting is going to happen on the larger scale, too. Among countries as it always has, does, and will. We are dealing with humans. I think even the cave men fussed and fought and banged each other with their clubs.

Every country has a military. When you think of it realistically with human nature, I think they always will have a military. And for good reason.

Oh, well--just my thoughts. Reminds me of King Solomon saying--there is nothing new under the sun and more or less whatever has been will be, is, and will be again. My opinion, just saying.

Below is the book I found Solomon's words. If you are not religious you might consider this as observation by a great philosopher. 

Ecclesiastes  1:9-11

⁹ The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

¹⁰ Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

¹¹ There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.

My Food Diary 2

I have another blog that is mostly food. I usually include photos of the food, the how-to, etc. I am including a link to this blog in case you would like to see more food related posts.

I like to cook nutritious food but like to do it without long, drawn-out instructions and standing over something all day. I do have medical issues that play a part in this. I just don't feel good a lot of days.

I post My Food Diary to help encourage other people with medical issues, elderly, work all day and don't have the time to cook all day, or who are single and find they just don't want to cook for one. 

Please bookmark the blog, if you find it helpful. Well, while you are at it, bookmark this blog, too. LOL  I add some food post to this blog but also include "opinion" blogs here.

Thanks for taking time to read my blog. Feel free to share it, too.

Lunch In A Bowl

My Food Diary June 28, 2012

Baked chicken, veggies, fruit, and crackers.

Baked chicken and chicken hot dogs (hot dogs for tomorrow) in

 NuWave Oven for 20 minutes. (Turn over after 10 minutes). 

While meat is cooking, tear washed lettuce leaves, prepare washed

veggies and fruit according to your preference--sliced, etc. Add pieces of

baked chicken breast. Toss salad

and add salad dressing, if you desire.

I added no salt nor oil. I baked meat in a Nuwave Oven (all meat was frozen

when I started cooking them).  I did not use the hot dogs in this

salad.  I cooked them today to conserve energy and won't have to

do anything tomorrow but heat in microwave for about 30 seconds.

Thanks for reading my blog!
