chicken and rice with broccoli
I decided I hadn't made this in a while, so I winged it again, served with rice and broccoli that my future husband (FH) made. Really simple, but delicious.

broiled halibut
I decided to try cooking fish at least once a week. It's expensive, but mostly healthy. This time the fish was a little overcooked. I'm not used to making fish, so I have to figure out how to tell when it's done. Or I'll just go by temperatures.
( Heavenly Halibut )
Notes:
- 1lb of halibut, kept other ingredients the same
- Taco Bell Hot Sauce

quick baked chicken
This was today's lunch. Quick baked chicken in lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic, and salt and pepper. Broccoli, raspberry yogurt, and potatoes from my bf's dad. Aside from the potatoes, it looks suspiciously like a Mr. Bento lunch I posted a few days ago. But it's different, I swear!

pork ribs with broccoli and rice
My bf's dad gave us some marinated ribs, so all we had to do was throw them in the oven. Yum!

Here is the site I got the recipe from.

Alterations:
- Used canned crab instead of fresh (grocery store I went to didn't have fresh crab
- Premade bread crumbs instead of fresh
- Wheat bread instead of white

SQUEEE
So it turns out, I like the soba sauce and since we ate out for dinner tonight, I decided to have more of it for tomorrow. It's my first Lock & Lock meal and I'm really excited!

This is like the shrimp puffs, but with a crescent roll crust instead of biscuit. Click here for the filling and recipe.

specifically for my new bento
Sushi and tempura, made by my boyfriend and me, respectively.
I also tempura'd jalapeños. They were delicious! Flavorful and not painfully spicy.

I'm getting to the last of the siopao so they're getting smaller. I didn't feel like cooking so we ordered out and I made a quick bento for tomorrow instead of using leftover dinner like I usually do.

bento on Saturday
| Potatoes topped with garlic, cheese and bacon. I just wanted something quick, easy and tasty during my study break. This definitely hit the spot! |  |

Seen here in my new and final bento box from The Bento Store:
- Garlic and butter rotelle topped with lemon & herb chicken and parmesan
- Broccoli with sharp cheddar
- Lettuce, jalapeños, salsa and sharp cheddar
No recipes today: the lemon & herb chicken was pre-packaged frozen by Foster Farms and everything else is is self-explanatory.

I made one for my boyfriend, too, even though he'll be eating at home tomorrow.
I found this recipe on Adagio, my favorite loose tea site. The original recipe is below, with my adjustments in italics

If anybody tries it, let me know if you like it!
In retrospect, it probably would have been better to leave out the red pepper because it overpowered the orange rooibos.
