My main accomplishment for today is that I pulled myself out of my doom / inaction / depresso / obsession spiral and made dinner rather than eating leftovers or toast (or worse, nothing).

Easy stir fry noodles, with frozen veg and some mock chicken and mock char siew I splurged on at Minh Phat the other day. Red rice noodles from my mum, and chilli-garlic-ginger paste premade using my own garden chillies (frozen while I was away).

Dinner on Sunday night was an epic effort of making three curries almost at the same time. Dal (with tadka made separately), tempeh/eggplant/capsicum dry fried with spices (first two items fried separately), and a decadant mock mutton coconut curry. All that exhausted me, far out.

Solid effort mate. Looks delish! Is that meal prep?

Also side note, nobody asked, but here's my personal preference of veggie protein. Paneer (cottage cheese) > tofu > tempeh >>> soy chunks.
