bentolicious! - June 7th, 2007

Okay, I know I've been emoing over this for a looong time. Every time I google a recipe I might want to make, I always end up being one or two ingredients short. I might be able to substitute those ingredients or strike them out from the list, but I don't know how that would change the flavor. It makes me sad, because it ALWAYS happens. :( *wrists*

So I'll try making peanut-crusted tilapia fillets tomorrow. The original recipe calls for almonds, and I know substituting peanuts in will definately change the flavor. Either that, or I just won't put any type of nut on the fish. Bah!

I think I'm really just wanting another food challenge. I don't have any steak so curry goes out the window, and I'm missing about half of the ingredients for pad thai.

Oh! I just discovered that they sold bento boxes at Epcot Japan, though. I'll have to get one for myself if they sell varieties other than the ones that I can find at my Sanrio store.

I feel so bad, though. :( I just ate a TV dinner for lunch. After trying to cook my own lunches and trying to eat healthier, I've reversed my path! And it wasn't until after I started cooking my meals that I realized how little flavor was actually in those little boxes. It wasn't too filling, either.

Bah! I'll probably just make curry rice tomorrow. >:( If only my mom had bought those teeny individually packaged tilapia fillets (perfect for bentos!), then I would make an attempt at making pan-fried fish.

(On a random note, boy am I lusting for some onigiri moulds...)

Also, I went back into my blog and retagged the entries for easier finding.

Okay, this was written sometime in the afternoon. Bah, stupid DJ being down.
