👩🏻‍🍳 COOKING FOR SANDY DAY
3 days a week, I cook meals for a neighbor who had a stroke last year and has limited mobility. We often share a meal kit or something similar and spend some time together since neither of us go out too much 😁

Today is one of her days. I’m enjoying having someone to cook for again.

I needed to take her down the Pot Roast I made for her and since the very nice farmer I buy my duck eggs from gave me a free dozen chicken eggs when I picked up my order (and I had bought eggs a couple of weeks before) I had way too many.

I asked Sandy if she wanted me to do some eggs for her and she wanted egg salad and deviled eggs. So I cranked up the Instant Pot and made her some of each.

🥚 Egg Salad
🥚 Deviled Eggs

Never done them in the IP? I cooked 15 at once, no boiling water on the stove, no needing to watch them, super easy to peel..

Feeling a bit rough today so only one meal…

🐷 ORANGE PORK, RICE BUNDLE & VEG
▪️ Bone-in Center Cut Pork Chop
▪️ San*J Asian Orange Sauce ⚡
▪️ Chef Hon Pork & Green Bean Rice Bundles ⚡
▪️ Stir Fry Vegetables
▪️ Garlic, Parmesan & Basil Butter

⚡ Orange Sauce – New product from Vitacost order – very very good!

⚡ Chef Hon Rice Bundles – from Oasis World Market in Blacksburg, VA – very sticky as usual (gluttonous rice) but not very tasty. I ate one and shared the other with the doggos.

🔵 I am also tracking on WW PersonalPoints just to show you the difference – I get 19pts/day + 28 Weeklies but since I don’t eat sugar free or most fat free products (food additive intolerances), points based plans don’t usually work well for me. This will be an interesting experiment.
