This baby was meant to be much simpler than it turned out to be. The original concept was just a packet of turkey mince, some mushrooms, a spoon, and me crying as I gobbled the lot down in the dark.
So, where did it all go right?!
I had my low-carb shopping order delivered yesterday, so I realised I best get working on it, despite my humble desires. What resulted was a mountain of meat and veg and fruit. Or, as I call it: “A damn fine Saturday night in!”.
Did that work? I fear it did not.
My “mixed” response is due to me putting too much lemon and lime in and too late in the cooking process. I simply forgot, basically, and then panicked. Only using halves would have made it much less “gopping”, which is apparently not a real word. My family used it though, so whatever.
I’ve started adding garlic and herbs right at the end of cooking, even though this may offend many cooks out there. I know you’re supposed to add them earlier, so as to infuse the other ingredients with their flavour, but I find the potency of said seasoning is lost by the end. So, yeah, I stand by my rebellious technique.
Fight the kitchen power!
I’m hoping to get out to the chemist today, as I’ve now missed 3 week’s worth of diabetes and antidepressant medication. I’m not feeling too bad, but there may very well be stuff going on inside me that is irreparable.
We shall see.
Do stay in touch, darlings.
Toodles!
