Always fun using odds and ends to make lunch! Today, I found a red bell pepper, half a tomato, scallions. I needed to use up the toufu and chicken sausage. Well, I'd forgotten the sausage is already spicy and decided to sprinkle my favorite MySpiceSage curry powder and San-J tamari to the toufu!!! My mouth is burning but in nice way! Helps to clear the sinus too, so not complaining. However, I'm not a fan of overly spicy foods that ruin your taste buds so you can't taste anything. Had one of these experiences?

Canned tomatoes, myspicesage good curry powder made for an easy, quick sauce for the toufu cubes! Added a few chopped sugar snap & chopped scallions, placed on bed of soba. Lunch always includes fresh made salad & balsamic dressing. Satisfying.

Foodie friends wanted ideas of how to prepare bok choy prompted me to quickly post this. It was quite a big dinner spread, not my usual one dish dinners. My sister and her hubby were visiting, so I made more of an effort.

Whole bok choy were stir fried with garlic and ginger, then added a tad of broth & let steam fry a little. Stir fried a dish of fresh shitake mushrooms, I wanted it to stand on it's own. I had made mui choy pork in a clay pot the night before, so all it needed was warming up & sprinkle scallions on top. The last dish was to provide a protein dish for brother-in-law. Everyone dug into this tasty dish! I stir fried red bell peppers and snow peas and added fried toufu with hoisin sauce. We wolfed all of it, only bit of pork was left. All washed down with ice cold Tiger Beer.

Nice chill tonight, perfect for end of the week to clear my fridge!

I started off wanting soup, had some chicken broth, mushroom juice I soaked my porcinis as base. Put this in my cast iron wok! Perfect vessel to do this.

I knew I was going to cook a few different batches, so a wide area is perfect to scoop out.

Cooked up whole wheat penne & put in two soup bowls.

Added to soup: mui choy leftovers from pork belly, toufu & toufu puffs. Scooped out & put over penne in bowls.

Then added to soup: leftover veggies with eggplant & rapini. Last minute, added in fresh bok choy & scallions.

Poured all veggies & soup over toufu, puffs & penne. Done! Yummy. Comfort food made from leftovers!!!

See how versatile a wok can be!
