(no subject)
So i've probably made entries in the past about how I grow sooo tired of eating the same foods over and over and over again here in san jose, and that living off ramen and chicken nuggets makes me want to die. So this semester- NO chicken nuggets- actually, I haven't bought ANY frozen dinners so far this semester (except 2 pot pies that i haven't eaten yet). Instead i've been making pasta, still doing the ramen occasionally, and i've been making a lot of casseroles, and it's been great so far. Although i will admit it's only October, but the great thing about the casseroles is they're always a little different depending on what i have here. The reason i'm making this entry is because TODAYS WAS SO GOOD!
I cooked a bag of frozen veggies in the microwave, put them in the casserole dish, and then mixed in the cream of mushroom&garlic. It looked rather meager than my usual casseroles, so I decided to line the bottom of the pan with bread slices (whole, not torn up) piled the veggie/soup mixture on top, added some broth&milk (the recipe called for sour cream but i ain't got that) some frenchs fried onions and popped that sucker in. After 20 minutes i put some more of the onions on top, five more minutes in the ovan to make it crispy and WAH-LAH!!! It was so good! I've put bread crumbs in cassaroles before, but i usually will toast the bread slices and then will rip it up, which is good too, but just lining the bottom of the pan with two slices of bread made a totally different consistency and it was so great!
I ate too much, tried to work on homework, and fell asleep for a couple hours- so that's not good. but i just wanted to say that woooooo fuck chicken nuggets!!
