Friday 9/15: Lunch: I had put a piece of the marinated beef steak to thaw on Thursday; I sliced the steak into thin strips and sauted it with onions, tomato, garlic, and spices to make a spicy sauted beef, along with rice and broccoli.

If I like something, I don't mind eating it for several meals. In fact, I like that. Give me some good potato salad and I will eat it for every meal.
ReplyDeleteYum! Potato salad! Fortunately, I have only myself to please, so, if I want to eat beef curry at every meal every day for a week, it's not a problem! :) I did the same with fish curry, a few weeks back.
DeleteAs long as you like it I don't think it matters you are eating the same thing such as the beef curry. Many of us eat a rotation of meals and hubby growing up on a farm ate their main meal at noon and left overs often turned into the evening meal.
ReplyDeleteYou eat some interesting snacks, many that I have not heard of.
Sandy, I am perfectly happy making one or two main dishes and eating from that all week. That's what my daughter does, too. I think the snacks provide all the variety I need! Snacks are my downfall! My mother used to say that, when I was a child, I preferred to eat snacks rather than a proper meal. :)
