Today for lunch I cooked some bacon rashers for my boyfriend and I. He's never had English-style bacon before and since I prefer it, we picked up a pack. With mine, I had two slices of quiche and some grapes. Since he doesn't like eggs, he had some baby carrots and the last of the ranch dressing to dip them in. I was also happy to finish the last of my coffee.
For dinner I made BBQ Pork Fried rice (recipe from Well Fed). This recipe from The Clothes Make the Girl is nearly identical.
I love this recipe. Before going paleo stir-fry was one of my favourite dishes to make, either with rice or noodles. It's cheap, fast, and very satisfying. I can make mine spicy by adding crushed pepper flakes and chili oil, and my boyfriend can add extra soy sauce. Though we've changed up some of the components, this recipe brings back a lot of those familiar flavours and textures and it's whole30 friendly.
The first time I made it, I slow cooked two pounds of pork shoulder for the Char Siu pork recipe, then used it for the BBQ Pork Fried Rice recipe, both from Well Fed. This time, I used some cheap pork chops and coated them in the marinade from the Char Siu recipe, but left off the glaze. It turned out just as good and tasted awesome with the "rice".
Here's the stir-fry all toasty in the wok. I had a big bowl of it with some sliced apple on the side.
