Chicken and Asparagus Stir Fry

Posted in Chicken, Vegetables by anne {uni homemaker}

I love a good stir-fry at home. What’s not to love? Veggies, pieces of meat, quick, and it doesn’t weigh you down after eating. I love veggies of all kind but I prefer mine cooked rather than consuming it raw, like a salad. The only drawback about making stir-fry at home is all that spattering. Ugh! I hate getting spattered. I know there are spatter guards out there but I’d rather not add more dishes to wash. Yes, I’m lazy too, in case you haven’t picked up on that.

I used white chicken meat here, but feel free to use chicken thigh meat if that’s what you’re into. This dish is still delicious the next day so your lunch is covered. 🙂 Have a great Tuesday!

Asparagus and Shiitake Risotto

Posted in Rice by anne {uni homemaker}

I didn’t start making risotto at home until a few years ago. I always thought it was a difficult dish to make. I saw an episode of 30 Minute Meals where Rachael Ray was demonstrating how to make it. While it is an easy dish, it certainly didn’t take 30 minutes! For me, it took about 45-50 minutes.

Shrimp and Asparagus Stir Fry

Posted in Seafood, Vegetables by anne {uni homemaker}

I was feeling a bit lazy today and didn’t want to go through a lot of trouble cooking dinner tonight. Since I had some asparagus and defrosted shrimp, I thought I’d combine the two. I also had some carrots so I threw that in. Took no time at all —I was done cooking within 45 minutes.
