When it’s already past 3pm and we don’t have food stocked up on the fridge and I am yet to go out to the groceries, I almost panic sometimes. It’s cause I can’t think of what to cook for dinner. I email my hubby and ask him if he has any specific request. Sometimes he’d say “anything is ok”. But mostly he says “something healthy would be good”. I usually cook one main dish and a side dish (which sometimes, depending on the menu I’ve thought of, is almost like a main dish as well but more on the veggie side). So still at home, and with very vague requests from Hubby, I panic what to cook for the night.

But then whenever I go to the groceries store, I smile as I thought of different menus to experiment as I walk down the (groceries) aisle. I’m basically teeming with ideas! Weird thing is that the ideas ebb out of me whenever I walk out of the store haha. Suffice it to say that I usually end up buying much more than what I initially intended.

I was just initially thinking of bacon with mushroom as side dish. But I picked up a small pack of shrimp, baby corn, asparagus, green bell pepper as well. In the end, what was originally a side dish became a full main dish. I tossed it in Japanese soy sauce. Hubby kept on exclaiming it was so good the whole time he was eating. haha!

If you want to try this, you may opt to shell the shrimp. I preferred it with the shell kasi. 😀

So hmm, what’s for dinner tonight?
