This seems to be a recurring theme inside of my head. Maybe it's that I've been working more and more (and later and later). Maybe it's that my husband keeps crazy mealtimes and may or may not come home hungry. Maybe it's that the food that I have to make now just takes longer (opening a can of sauce vs. making a sauce from scratch). Whatever it is, as dinnertime approaches, my trusty Rice Krispies cereal starts sounding better and better.
Tonight I fought off that supper-time cereal urge and made some stir fry. As usual there were difficulties (how do you make a soy sauce without soy?), but answers were only a click away on the Internet (molasses + balsamic vinegar + salt). In the end, I had a serviceable Chicken and Veggie Stir Fry. I had put some ginger and garlic somewhere in there also, so while it didn't taste exactly like soy sauce, it had a definite flavor which was still quite tasty.
Looks yummy! I know what you mean about dreading meal times, especially dinner time. I have that same feeling in my house.
