Last weekend, my mom remarked that her pantry had cleared up considerably since I’ve moved out. That’s funny, cuz my pantry is now stocked to the brim. Ok, I know I like to eat, but really!? So yeah, I’m the common denominator. Where ever I go, stockpiles of food appear. Two weekends ago, I went grocery shopping at Costco and the Asian market. I didn’t think I got that much stuff but even after skipping a shopping trip this past weekend, I’m still working through the food we got 2 weeks ago. Towards the end, I generally wind up with a few random ingredients. I even ran out of eggs, bread, and milk! Don’t worry though, that was quickly rectified this evening. Phew! So this week, I’m trying to creatively cook through what I have in the fridge and pantry. Tonight, in the slow cooker (which is probably one of the most used and versatile gadgets I have in the kitchen), beans, onion, carrots, tomatoes, ground turkey. I have no idea what it is or what it’s supposed to be but I’ll find out tomorrow at dinner. It’s the dish I never planned for but somehow I concocted it in my noggin’ based on chili recipes. Only there’s no chili pepper or cayenne. Maybe I’ll add that too.
