The wife made one of my favorite quick meals last night a chicken, avacado and mango salad. She cooks the chicken in advance puts it in the fridge and all you have to do at dinner time is plate some greens (spinich or a spring mix) slice the mango and avacado and mix a simple vinegar and oil dressing. Dinner is served. #weeknightdinner #fastanddelicious #eatingwitht2 #itsnotgourmetitsgourmeh #waytoamansheartisthroughhisstomach #waytoamansheart #simpleisbest #healthydoesnthavetobeboring #homecooking #homecook #wifegotskills https://www.instagram.com/p/B8lv6BRpUO9/?igshid=1lzgvmcks2ndd

Got home late tonight and was in charge of dinner since my wife was with my sick son all day. Made chicken marsala with some brocolli. I was quite hungry when I got home so had some roasted grapes and goat cheese while I was cooking. That is a typical quick weeknight meal right? #homecooking #chickenmarsala #roastedgrapes #eatingwitht2 #itsnotgourmetitsgourmeh #gourmehchef #weeknightdinner #playwithyourfood #diabetescanstillbeyummy #liveinthekitchen #foodismyvice #healthydoesnthavetobeboring #balancedplate #fuelthebodyfuelthemind https://www.instagram.com/p/B8fVpwMpHoA/?igshid=ayxsoh5nos9p

Attempt two at duck, this time just the breast. Turned out quite good. The duck was made from a couple recipes from joy of cooking and the vegetables from omnivores cookbooks site. Need to work on technique though, could have rendered more fat and the seared the skin at the end. I think another thing is sauces. Alot of time I focus on the meat and forget to accompany them with sauces and flavoring. That can work for steaks but other meat needs flavoring. #eatingwitht2 #homecook #playwithyourfood #neverstoplearning #duck #ilovemybutcher #knifeskills #type2diabetes #broccoli #potatoes #asiancuisine #joyofcooking #omnivorescookbook #castironskillet https://www.instagram.com/p/B8FUsfvp5Pj/?igshid=1dv6u1dtfuvit
