I've been absent for a couple or three weeks but now I have a few things to tell you about. I've been to Trader Joe's and I must tell you that his potstickers with chicken have captivated the household. One bag will not be enough for Andy, Nate, and me. Yesterday we had them again and this time, I had 4 baby bibb lettuce hearts from Kroger called artesian lettuce in the fridge. After sauteing the potstickers I laid each one in a blanket of lettuce and the hot and cold combo was amazing. One other thing I bought several bags of was stir-fried (vegetable) rice. I mostly do my own rice, but in a pinch, throw two bags of this rice in a saute pan and add whatever you like, shrimp, peas and carrots, corn, add what you like in your rice stir-fry. It is a full meal and ready in minutes. (Joe's Langestino tails are delicious in this stir-fry.) From the frozen food section. Lightly reheat the frozen tails at the last minute. They don't like to be overcooked and you won't like it either.) These are so good on soft buns or on Po Boys. Also, good in salads.)
Moving on to Kroger, Andy's favorite store, I like Kroger's wavy chips. These potato chips are so good and believe me, I know a good chip. I will take potatoes no matter how they are presented so I have had a few in my time. You won't be disappointed even when you reach the bottom of the bag...use the crushed chips on your next oven casserole for a nice crunch and good taste.
Kroger has a peanut butter called honey peanut butter either crunchy or smooth. It is my favorite.
Now that most plants are where they should be doing what they should be doing, maybe we can get back in the rhythm. Andy and I actually went to two outdoor nurseries without masks. How daring are we?
We are having a big do July 3rd. Lots of people are coming so I must get to prepping and advanced cooking so I too can enjoy their company.
