Today’s Menu: Buffalo Stir – Fry

To start my day off I prepared a Poached Egg and served it on a toasted Thomas English Muffin. I also had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 56 degrees and windy, but the sun was out most of the day. I had to get out and rake some leaves, which isn’t going to do a lot of good. The leaves are falling all over the street and piling up quickly . I raked what I could in our yard and I got an elderly neighbor’s yard also. At least I got rid of the first wave of leaves, raked to large yard bags full. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Buffalo Stir – Fry.

To make my Stir – Fry I’ll be using Wild Idea Buffalo – Stir – Fry Slices, Ka Me Udon Stir-Fry Noodles, La Choy Bean Sprouts, Del Monte Cut Green Beans, Del Monte Sliced Carrots, Reese Sliced Water Chestnuts, Polar Shiitake Sliced Mushrooms, Kikkoman Stir – Fry Sauce, and La Choy Asian Style Crunchy Noodles. I can’t wait to have this!

To start I prepared the Wild Idea Buffalo – Stir – Fry Strips. These are so easy to prepare, and so delicious! These just cook for a couple of minutes, they are so lean. So I seasoned them with some Wild Idea Buffalo Omnivore Salt. Then grabbed a small Cast Iron Skillet, sprayed it with Pam Non Stick Spray and a tablespoon of Cooking Olive Oil. Heated it on medium heat. The lightly fried the strips. Flipping them once. Removed them from the heat and set aside until I added them to the Stir – Fry.

I started by opening the cans of Cut Green Beans, Sliced Carrots, Bean Sprouts, Sliced Water Chestnuts and Mushrooms. Next I got a large Skillet, sprayed it with Pam Spray and added 1 1/2 tablespoons of Cooking Olive Oil. Heated the Skillet on Medium High heat. When the Skillet was heated I added some of the Stir – Fry Sauce, I just eyed this because I wasn’t sure on how much to add. I then added the Udon Stir – Fry Noodles, Cut Green Beans, Sliced Carrots, Bean Sprouts, and Sliced Water Chestnuts. Stirred them a few times and then added the Buffalo Stir – Fry Strips. Continued cooking until everything was heated. The aroma was incredible!

Removed the Skillet from the heat. I then got a large serving bowl and added the Stir -Fry. I topped everything with the La Choy Asian Style Crunchy Noodles and served.

It came out so good! Everything worked together so good. The Kikkoman Stir Fry Sauce tied everything together, excellent Sauce! I have to start having Stir – Fry more often! There’s so many different ways and ingredients you can prepare it with. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Cherry Jello. Take Care All!

Tonight’s Menu: Chicken Stir -Fry w/ Baby Carrots, Cut Green Beans, Water Chestnuts, Bean Sprouts, and Mushrooms

Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea this morning for Breakfast. This morning Mom had some errands to run so I drove. We first went to Jungle Jim’s International Market, love shopping there! Then I took her to the local shopping mall. Back home not much else going on. For Dinner tonight its Chicken Stir -Fry w/ Baby Carrots, Cut Green Beans, Water Chestnuts, Bean Sprouts, and Mushrooms.

To make the Stir – Fry I’ll need; Chicken, 1 package Hakubaku Organic Japanese Wheat Noodles, 1 can Whole Baby Carrots (drained), 1 small can Del Monte Cut Green Beans (drained), Sliced Water Chestnuts (drained), 1 can of Bean Sprouts (drained), 1 can Stir-Fry Mushrooms (drained), Chow Mein Noodles, Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce, and Extra Light Olive Oil. You can use Beef, Pork, or Shrimp instead of the Chicken. All will work great!

I’m using the leftover Chicken from last night’s Perdue Whole Roaster. Pulled all the leftover meat and this was my Chicken for the Stir-Fry. Next I grabbed a large nonstick skillet and sprayed it Pam Cooking Spray and added a tablespoon of Extra Light Olive Oil and heated the pan on medium heat. When heated I added my Pulled Chicken, Carrots, Green Beans, Water Chestnuts, Bean Sprouts, and Mushrooms. Stirred until mixed then added the Kikkoman Soy Sauce, you add this according to your taste. Stirred and heated everything until heated through. Removed it from the heat and covered it.

Next I boiled my Udon Noodles. I used a large pot and filled it 1/2 way with water. Heated the water to boiling and added my Noodles. Stirring, and cooked for 4 minutes. Drained them and added them to the Stir – Fry Skillet. Stirred until mixed and served! This hit the spot for Dinner! Topped a bowl of the Sir – Fry with some Chow Mein Noodles. Had a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink. For Dessert/Snack tonight a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn along with a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.

Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce

Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce is brewed exactly the same way as all-purpose Kikkoman Soy Sauce. However, after the fermentation process is completed, approximately 40% of the salt is removed. Although there is less sodium in Less Sodium Soy Sauce, all the flavor and quality characteristics remain because it is aged before extracting the salt. However, to maintain this full flavor, we recommend using it during the latter stage of cooking in braising sauces, soups and stews, vegetables or stir-frys.

Ingredients
WATER, WHEAT, SOYBEANS, SALT, LACTIC ACID, SODIUM BENZOATE; LESS THAN 1/10 OF 1% AS A PRESERVATIVE.

Today’s Menu: Leftovers – Stir-Fry Shrimp with Soba Noodles

For Breakfast this morning I toasted a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin that I topped with Smucker’s Sugar Free Blackberry Jam. I also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Still not sure how much snow we are going to end up with. Hello Spring! Around 11:00 a Social Worker came over for a couple of hours to discuss options on where we can place Dad for his final days. We did everything we could to keep him home with us but the Dementia is starting to take over. He’s been seeing things and people that are not there. He screams a lot and refuses to do what we ask of him to do to help himself. We are so sad but it’s going to be for the best. For Dinner tonight Leftover Stir-Fry Shrimp with Soba Noodles. It’s been a very stressful day so I’m glad I had Leftovers to reheat. I’ve left the original post from yesterday, for ingredients and directions, below. Enjoy all!

In a bowl mix the shrimp with 1 tsp Splenda Sugar and a dash of McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Peppercorn Medley . Marinate for 15 minutes. Next cooked them in a bit of butter just until pink. Remove Shrimp from the skillet and set aside along with Baby Carrots.

In a separate skillet I prepared the Soba Noodles. Using a medium size skillet, I added 1/2 Tbsp. of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and heated on medium high. I added the Noodles and the Soy Sauce, stirred and cooked for 2 minutes. Removed from the heat and set aside.

Using the same skillet as the Shrimp was cooked I added a tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (cooking on medium high) along with the Butter, Baby Carrots, Cut Green Beans, Water Chestnuts and 1 tsp minced Garlic. Then seasoned them with the Sea Salt and the Peppercorn Medley. Cooked it 2 minutes and then added 2 tablespoons of water and the cooked Carrots, Shrimp, and Noodles. Continued to cook everything for an additional 1 minute, stirring it often. Then I added the skillet of Soba Noodles on top of everything, stirring till mixed. Remove from heat and serve! Love this dish, everything spot on! The Noodles, Shrimp, Vegetables, along with the seasoning and Soy Sauce combine to make one delicious dish. Really love the KA*ME Udon Stir Fry Noodles, they taste so fresh! For Dessert/Snack tonight a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.

Today’s Menu: Shrimp and Vegetable Stir-Fry

Started off in the 30’s this morning. But a lot of sunshine again and in the 60’s. Hopefully no rain for a while, they started sanding down our wooden deck, doing some light repair to it, and hopefully get it painted. One of three outside projects that have to be done. Mom needed some items from Kroger so I went to the store for her, stopped by the post office and sent some letters out for her, and then I stopped by the bank before coming home. For dinner tonight Shrimp and Vegetable Stir-Fry. Had the Shrimp in the freezer and laid them in the fridge to thaw overnight.

I had not prepared or had Stir-Fry in a very long time, in fact way too long! So I decided last night that was going to be dinner tonight! I laid a bag of Kroger Brand Medium Shrimp (1 lb. Bag) in the fridge overnight to thaw. When I was at Kroger earlier I picked up the remaining ingredients I needed. Along with the Shrimp I’ll need; 1 can Reese Sliced Water Chestnuts, 1 can Reese Fancy Sliced Bamboo Shoots, Baby Carrots, Sugar Snap Peas, Asparagus (trimmed and cut diagonally into 2-inch pieces), Thai Kitchen Brown Rice Noodles, Low Sodium Soy Sauce (To Taste), 1 tablespoon peeled and grated fresh Ginger, 1 tablespoon Toasted Sesame Seeds, and a pinch or two of Splenda Brown Sugar.

In a small bowl, stir together the Soy Sauce and Ginger. Set aside. To start I preboiled the Baby Carrots about 7 minutes, drained and set aside. Carrots can take a while to soften so I boil them first to help the cooking process. Then I also boiled my Noodles by package instructions, drained and set them aside.
To prepare the dish, in a Wok on med. high I added the 1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I then added the Asparagus, Bamboo Shoots, Water Chestnuts, Sugar Snap Peas, and Baby Carrots to the Wok, and cook until tender-crisp stirring frequently (about 5 minutes). Stir in the Noodles, Soy Sauce Mixture, Brown Sugar, and Shrimp. Continue cooking for 1-2 minutes until all the ingredients are heated through. Serve and top with the Toasted Sesame Seeds and La Choy Rice Noodles. What a dish! The Shrimp along with the Vegetables and Seasoning is just a perfect meal. Makes me wonder why I always wait so long to prepare this. For dessert later a bowl of SO Delicious Soy Milk Chocolate Obsession, if you’ve never tried the So Non Dairy Products it’s time!

Today’s Menu: Shrimp and Asparagus Stir-Fry

Beautiful weather returned today, sunny and 70 degrees! Took some items over to a local Goodwill Store, then dropped off some canned goods to Reach Out Lakota (Free Food Pantry), then to Walmart and Kroger. Picked up a few items for dinner tonight. So tonight I prepared Shrimp and Asparagus Stir-Fry.

I hadn’t had any Stir-Fry in a while and it was sounding good! To prepare it I needed; 1 cup Uncle Ben’s Whole Grain Brown Rice (cooked according to package instructions), 2 tablespoons Reduced-Sodium Soy Sauce, 1 tablespoon Seasoned Rice Vinegar, 1 tablespoon peeled and grated fresh Ginger, 1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds, 2 tablespoons Canola Oil, 1 pound Asparagus (trimmed and cut diagonally into 2-inch pieces), 1 small can of Sliced Water Chestnuts, 1/2 package of Mini Carrots, 1 pound Jumbo Shrimp (cleaned and cooked), and 1 teaspoon Asian (toasted) Sesame Oil. Sounding good isn’t it!

In a small bowl, stir together the Soy Sauce, Rice Vinegar and Ginger. Set aside. In a 12-inch skillet or Wok over medium-high heat, toast the Sesame Seeds until golden, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. In the same skillet, heat the Canola Oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add the Asparagus, Water Chestnuts, and Carrots, cook until tender-crisp stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Stir the Soy Sauce mixture and Shrimp into the Asparagus mixture. Cook 1 minute to heat through. Remove the skillet from the heat, and stir in the Sesame Oil. I then microwaved the Uncle Ben’s Rice (according to the package directions). Removed from the microwave and made a bed of it on a plate. To serve, topped the Rice with the Shrimp and Asparagus mix. As I said I hadn’t had Stir-Fry in a while but it was worth the wait, delicious! Shrimp with anything is good, but add all these other ingredients and it’s amazing!
