Homecooked

My cooking these days is really simple and fuss free. Have I said that before?

I don't bake anymore and when I think of baking, ugh! My mindset is not like what it was before. I now think of baking as such a hassle. But back then, I loved the activity and it helped me relax. But now if I were to bake, I would be stressed. LOL!


This was lunch Saturday. A piece of steak, air fried. And the veggies were basically fermented veggies and some roasted tomatoes. It was my one meal for the day.


This was an omelette I cooked Sunday. Loads of onions, a little bit of minced beef and 4 eggs.


My big Sunday feast - pork shoulder (air fried), the omelette, chonggak kimchi, sauerkraut, kimchi and some rice at the bottom. Yes, these days I have rice without fear LOL!

The problem that I had with carbs was not the carbs itself (well, some of the carbs I used to eat were bad) but me, over eating and over indulging in (too much) processed carbs and Whittaker's chocolate bars.

Now I restrict my carbs to rice and sourdough bread (and whole food carbs like potatoes and such) and keep the portions modest with reduced frequency of consumption.


This was lunch Monday (my famous omelette LOL!) which I cooked early morning. The capsicums and cherry tomatoes were roasted Sunday and kept in the fridge. Very convenient.


At the office I added some sauerkraut.


Monday afternoon it rained. When I got home I fed my girls.


Poodie was done and jumped next door. Ah Boi was ignoring the food.


Ah Boi, are you OK? Why so moody?


Even when I placed the plate closer to her, she was not interested. Just stared into space with that angry look. But the next morning she was fine, eating as normal.


This was Monday breakfast.


Pork ribs and veggie soup.


I cooked lunch to take to the office. Steak. 


Served with the pre-roasted capsicum and cherry tomatoes. All simply seasoned with sea salt. So good!
