It's quite depressing how I haven't been able to cook a decent meal for 2 weeks now. We were supposed to do the groceries last week but the boyfriend and I ended up sleeping instead. Work has really been stressful and toxic for both of us, we'd choose a whole day's sleep over a party or drinks any day. We're going grocery shopping today so I'm excited! I've prepared my list and my recipes. Bibi is still sleeping so I thought of squeezing in a quick post for you guys. I made this a few weeks ago, didn't have any meat on the fridge so I just tossed all of the leftover veggies together.
The boyfriend and I just got back from the majestic islands of Boracay, and, can I just say going back was so heartbreaking. If I could land a job there, you'd see me move in a heartbeat! I'll be talking more about the short vacay we just had on another blog post. For now, I'd like to psych myself into thinking that a salad makes the world a better place. If I want to get back in shape, eyes on the fucking prize--err, salad. I have to forget about the sumptuous meals we had in Boracay. Huhu Why is life so difficult??
Anyway, let me share this recipe I did a few weeks back. I was experimenting with balsamic vinegar and surprisingly, it tastes awesomesauce with Salmon. I scoured the intarwebz for the perfect balsamic vinaigrette recipe, but I had to adjust everything to my own liking.
Is it just me or the cold not-so-summer nights are finally over? If so, I'm hating this weather. Can't we have the easy breezy weather until March? No? Okay. Anyway, we've been feeling the heat since the weekend (jackets and boots no more!), the boyfriend and I were binging on salad for like a whole week. It's easy to prepare and it's very light, perfect for the tropical weather.
I already have several salad recipes on queue but let me share this first because it's the easiest! You just put all of the ingredients together and voila, you have a decent meal.
I've been down with the flu for over 2 weeks now and I'm not even close to recovery. Huhuhuhu My salad life, which is supposed to be fun, is taking a back seat because my body keeps looking for rice. Or food portions in humongous sizes, and a salad just won't do. Sigh. I had a meeting at work earlier and it was so embarrassing because I kept on coughing while explaining my deck, and it was also painful. It's also affecting my workout! I haven't been doing Zumba because of this terrible feeling. I just want to curl up in bed until I get well. Huhuhu
So anyway, I just want to share a recipe I did a couple of weeks ago. I've seen a lot of sardines recipes online but most of them were oil-based. I love sardines in tomato sauce so I thought, why not use it instead.
Can I just breathe and finally say, yay because it's the freakin' weekend! And after a day, it'll be Monday again--woohoo work! NOT! Work was really toxic this week. Thinking about the food that I'll whip up the next day kept me motivated from Monday until Friday. Oh, I also have my monthly visitor! Isn't that just great? UGHHHH. Bad vibes aside, I was feeling hungry the other day and couldn't be bothered to look at recipes online, so I tossed some left over vegetables and came up with a pretty satisfying salad! It may have been a bad week, but I had my moments too!
