was so so brave (to continue standing after work) and made another one of my meal kit things: chicken with some sort of sesame dressing & a quick slaw with “thai chili sauce” in lettuce cups w the other half of the take’n’bake garlic bread also from my box. i’ll admit it was super nice & easy to just dump pre-diced chicken in a pan & pre-sliced red cabbage in a bowl. the only thing i really had to do was cut the cucumber squeeze a garlic clove onto the chicken & add dressings to things, like i get why the convenience of these kits is such a big draw. however the chicken they gave me was breast (awful) so i wish they’d given me thigh or even pork would have been good. i didn’t feel like spending more time on this to make additions but it needed acid (the slaw being mayo based instead of vinegar or citrus surprised me) & would’ve benefitted from red onions or scallions. should’ve put peanuts on top too. carrots also would have been nice. pretty good though overall

#i have a lot of slaw a tiny bit of chicken and no lettuce left though so interesting portioning #photo record #food tag #chatpost #admittedly i did double the lettuce for my cups to add stability & i just ate the rest standing at the counter #bc i rinsed it all like a fool and then was like ‘i can’t put wet cut lettuce back in the fridge’#so actually the lettuce was my fault.#the first time i burned the bread bc the directions were bad #but this time i chopped off four minutes from the directions & it was perfect :)
