Hello, awesome readers.
Some of you may remember this post from a few years ago when I wrote about a date I had. And by date, I mean that I invited him over for dinner. At the time, said date had no idea what he was getting involved with. And by “what”, I mean who. Or whom. Regardless of who or whom I mean me.
It’s a short post (mostly because it involved frozen dinners for dinner) and to help give you context, I suggest you go over and read it. Here’s the link again. Go ahead, I’ll be here when you get back.
Well things have evolved since then. I can now defrost hamburger meat in the microwave without burning it and I’ve recently started working at my kitchen table so that I can start dinner and remember not to forget that something is cooking on the stove.
The added bonus to this little working set-up is that my office – the room I used to write in – provides a safe environment for shoving miscellaneous crap when I have guests. It’s a win for everyone.
And since I’m now so evolved, I’ve decided to make a list of New Year’s Resolutions. I don’t smoke and since I’m a small person, I try not to lose weight so New Year’s Resolutions have just never been high on my list of lists.
So here’s my list of New Year’s Resolutions for 2020:
- Once a week, cook something.
Yeah, that’s it. Small steps.
If you have any recipes that you like and that require three ingredients or less, please feel free to share them with me. No rules, except that they can’t be toast. And I’m kidding about the three ingredients or less. Perhaps. Maybe. Just remember EASY. Again, small steps.

This sounds harder than it is because I am so wordy. You will need a bag of frozen diced onion/pepper mix and a half cup each of grated Parmesan and grated cheddar cheese. (unless you hate any of the things mentioned in which case, never mind) Stop here..find new recipe. Also 5 eggs and some spray on or pour on oil of your choice. Also a skillet that you can stick under the broiler for a few minutes. Put a bit of oil in the skillet. Pour in half of the bag of onions and peppers and cook over low to medium heat for about 5 minutes until soft, but not brown. While they are cooking beat the eggs with the half cup of parmesan cheese. Pour mixture over the soft peppers and smooth around with a spoon until all the pan is covered. Turn heat to low and cook unstirred until eggs are almost done but tops are still a little damp looking. Turn on broiler and put skillet right under it just until eggs get dry on top–just takes a minute or two. Remove skillet and top with the half cup of grated cheese. Put back under the broiler until cheese is melty. Do NOT leave while skillet is under the broiler. These steps go fast. Serve with toast–you know how to do toast. If you add some garlic butter on the toast, it is even better. This recipe lends itself to endless variations–a good way to use up leftover veggies and/or bits of meat. You’ll see..way easier than it sounds. Thanks for all the good reads.
Thanks so much for sharing this, Sheri! Adding it to my list!
