Welcome to my life, fried eggs...and a curry dish!

Fried eggs are the new oats, IMO. I've only made scrambled eggs before, but today Brandon taught me how to make a fried egg. Don't laugh -- I had never tried it! They look gross...all raw and runny and ewww... Back in the winter he made me a sandwich that almost made me cry it was so tasty. It was a fried egg on whole wheat bread with spinach, goat cheese, and blueberry jelly. Odd combination? Yes. Delicious? YES. So master Brandon taught me how to make a fried egg -- so easy btw -- and we put it in an English muffin with a slice of ham and cheese. YUMMY!


Dinner was a simple chicken curry dish. We cooked chicken with garlic and set that aside. In a separate dish I mixed a can of lite coconut milk with 1 1/2 tbsp of red curry paste, 1 tsp low sodium soy sauce, lime juice, and basil leaves. After that warmed, we poured it over the chicken and added sliced red pepper, carrots, and peas, and lemon grass. It simmered for a few minutes, and then we poured it over jasmine rice. It was pretty good, but I thought the flavor was so one-dimensional. It needed more lemon grass or maybe even ginger. We ended up adding some sweet chile sauce for extra flavor.
