What's on your plate?

[lylysa]

Hello there, ladies and gents!

Keeping in line with all the fun and interactive threads asking about your most recent halls, items you have your eyes on, what you're currently wearing, what's your hair routine, and more, I've decide to branch out and ask:

"What's on your plate?"

The beauty world doesn't just stop at skin care and cosmetics, it also goes hand in hand with your overall health and well-being, so with that, I'm curious to see what we're all chowing down and snacking on be it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, or inbetween!

For those with apps that help count calories or to those who just want to keep a log, here's a place to share, possibly find and share some recipes, and even tips on maintaining a balanced diet.

Don't just share food items, but even drinks! I'm a huge fan of tea and at least have a cup of green tea a day (anti-oxidants) and drink plenty of water.

For lunch today, I had:

-Brown rice

-Steamed egg

-Steamed red snapper with green onion, sesame oil, and black pepper

-Gai lan (it's a type of Chinese vegetable/greens)

Now, tell me, Beauty Talk world, what do you have? 😄

@NinaNee You inspire me to switch up my cooking! This looks great! 

Best,
Rebecca

[NinaNee]

@RebeccaBT Thanks! I'm glad I can inspire you. I would love to see what you cook.

Hi @NinaNee,

I will definitely start posting! Tonight I made turkey enchiladas and yesterday I made Italian Sausage and Peppers with garlic bread and eggplant parm (with no breading). I will start remembering to take pictures! 

Best,
Rebecca

[NinaNee]

@RebeccaBT That all sounds so good! Can't wait to see all the yummy food you cook!

@ather Thanks! To be honest it took me a couple of shots before I got to this one lol

Stuffed chicken wings and egg roll with rice for brunch at my house today.

Hi @NinaNee,

I have never heard of stuffed chicken wings! They sound so good! 

Best,

Rebecca

[NinaNee]

@RebeccaBT Stuff chicken wings are so good imo. I hope one day you get to try some for yourself. I love eating them but I do hate deboning the wings so I only make these a couple of times a year.

@NinaNee  I’ve never heard of a stuffed chicken wing. Looks amazing 

[NinaNee]

Stuffed chicken wings?! You’ve just opened my

world up to new possibilities 🤯

[NinaNee]

@GG84 this is something I've grown up eating. It's really delicious. I just discovered in the last few years that some people make stuff chicken drumsticks as well. If you youtube it, you'll see how people make it differently. Only thing I hate about making these is the deboning process, it's a pain.

Oh wow! What is the stuffing for the chicken wing @NinaNee ?

[NinaNee]

@blackkitty2014 this is what I season my chicken with along with the other stuff I had listed.

[NinaNee]

@blackkitty2014 everyone makes it differently but what I put in mines is bean thread noodles, ground pork and an egg. If I have some green onions and cilantro then I'd put some of that in as well but I didn't have any atm and didn't want to drive out to get just that. For seasoning I put in salt, garlic powder, black pepper, oyster sauce, fish sauce and sometimes I'd put a little bit of wonton seasoning in. After I debone the chicken I marinate it over night with chicken seasoning (I'll post a photo). I like my food more flavorful so I also add some more salt, black pepper, oyster sauce and fish sauce. If you YouTube stuff chicken wings you will see how people make it, everyone does it differently. Also search stuff chicken drumsticks. I'm Asian so I've always made it the asian way but I like how others make the stuff chicken drumsticks.

@NinaNee Thx you so much for the ingredients and tips. My son is 4 and he starts getting into chicken drumsticks. It will be a hit. 😍🥰😘

Homemade potstickers. One day when I've got more time on my hand, I will try to actually make my own wrapper from scratch. For now I buy the frozen premade wrappers and stuff it with my own filling.

@NinaNee ,

These are inspiring!  We love potstickers!  One of our favorite things, but only from our one favorite restaurant.  Yours look out of this world!
