Thai Chicken Zoodles with Spicy Peanut Sauce


I don't have anything fun to write about this.

Just make this recipe. It's delicious! It's quick!
And it doesn't matter if you don't have all the ingredients!

Substitutions used:
shredded carrot for spiralized
cilantro omitted (b/c E hates it)
green onion omitted (b/c I forgot)
soy sauce for tamarin sauce
bean sprouts omitted (couldn't find them!)

Also purchased the pre-made zucchini noodles at Trader Joe's.

This was great!
Bean sprouts would make it even better!

But, if I had to spiralize the carrots and zucchini,
I probably would never make this.

Lemon Rosemary Turkey Meatballs


Kinda sick of cooking for myself,
while E usually picks up lunch at work.

Trying to be healthy, but it takes effort.

This recipe has many foods that are cancer-fighting, or good for hair and skin,
such as rosemary, lemon zest, olive oil, shallots, egg.

My meatballs didn't turn out as round,
they were quite wet...
Perhaps more panko is needed?

Paired the lemon rosemary meatballs with roasted Brussels sprouts,
another food good for you,
and garlic aioli,
probably not as good for you.

The meatballs stayed moist stored with the recipe's white wine sauce.

All in all, a little bit of effort, but well worth it.

Great spring dish!
