What are we doing for dinner?
If I had it my way I'd eat Kraft mac and cheese every night. I admit that I'm lazy and to me cooking is a chore. When I lived by myself I mostly ate meatless meals because it was easier than cooking meat. Sometimes I'd have a taco night but that's easy meat cooking. Derek isn't down for my lazy meals. He doesn't even like mac and cheese! I'm marrying him despite this.
Derek actually enjoys cooking. I told him he's more than welcome to cook every night but he's not down for that either. We tend to alternate cooking dinner since he refuses to be my personal chef. One night he cooks, the next I cook and then the next we eat out or order take out. It's not always in that order but it goes something like that. When it's my turn I usually suggest one of the following meals: home made pizza, tacos or Korean beef bowl. That's basically my rotation. The beef bowl is a new addition and it's fairly easy to make. Tacos are easy too. The pizza you just throw some toppings on a premade crust and you're good to go. Can you sense a theme here? Now that it's getting colder I'll throw soup into the mix and it won't even come from a can.
I don't think I'll ever really love cooking but I'll always love eating.
I'm not a fan of cooking either and would be fine to go meatless, but that's not an option for the people I obligingly cook for. I think it's a man thing.
ReplyDeleteWhat is Korean beef bowl?
Here is the recipe I use. http://damndelicious.net/2013/07/07/korean-beef-bowl/ I add some snow peas at the end for some veggies.
DeleteI'm not a huge fan of cooking either. On the nights when I cook, I usually make burgers on the stove using a grill pan and roasted veggies in the oven. Sometimes I do the homemade pizza thing with a refrigerated crust from Trader Joe's.
ReplyDeleteI like your style! Also, I love roasted veggies.
