The head the tail the whole damn thing

Well, this is gonna be a mish mosh post. I forget to take pictures, but whatevs.

 My leg is still effed in terms of stamina, so I'm not a cooking machine. So I made the cooking come to me, as you'll see a little later. 


I got a little rice cooker/steamer to enable my laziness. Cooking is millet with vegetable stock and tofu. Steaming is broccoli and cauliflower. 

I add this:


And the awful food pic that results??


I think I bought that from oriental trading company in high school and left it in the mens room.

I also made delicious salad.


That's broccoli and tomato and really good cucumber and avocado and baby arugala mix topped with sriracha and tahini.

And then I went to the mets game! First if the season. Lots of hot prep.


The shirt that gets me lots of compliments from overweight men. A beloved 29th birthday gift from Lindsay Zamora that I'll treasure for life.


Would you buy a bobblehead from this man?!?!?

So, with the rice cooker, I rediscovered beans. I lived off them for awhile, but like any OCD freak, I eat in phases. So I had to quit them to rediscover how much I love them. 

This shit (pardon my French) is where it's at:


That's rice with turmeric, pinto beans, steamed red peppers, and avocado. Nothing else. No accessories needed. Put me on a dessert or desert island, and I'll live happily with my volleyball.

Til next time.

P.S. 

Oh and the mets lost, of course.

Just in time for Easter

It's been a long time since I've posted. I think the longest of all the posting gaps. It's because I went back to work, and I've been working through my leg healing, and it's been goddamn exhausting, pardon my French. 

I didn't really cook, until recently, and it's not so much cooking as preparing. Delicious home cooking from the Pesqueira's was shoveled in my mouth and then I passed out for a month. Every step of recovery, I master, then the rug gets pulled out and I start a whole new ordeal. 

Crutches. They build character.

No crutches. Builds character. 

I eat nutri bullet smoothies for breakfast. I make sandwiches for lunch. Here's some:


That's whole wheat bread, and tomato, and green peppers, zucchini, avocado, cheddar cheese, and sriracha.


That's whole wheat roll, 3 pepper Monterey Jack cheese, cucumber, red and green pepper, avocado and sriracha.


That's a salad, all the crap above with spinach and tahini. 

 
And that awful picture is some dinner I made with a rice cooker/steamer I got. It's...rice and tofu, cooked together in vegetable stock, with broccoli and asparagus steamed on top, mixed with franks sweet chili sauce and sriracha. Quite good for how easy it is.

More soon!
