I don't even know why I tried... I mean the name ALONE sounds, quite frankly... disgusting!
But high on the joys of healthy living I decided to attempt it.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
Well, unfortunately, I forgot to take one and the ones I googled looked nothing like the one I made, so you'll just have to take my word for it.
I should have known after chopping up all the veggies that it was going to be a downer. Instead I looked at the nutritional label and felt inspired that I was making such a healthy feast for my husband and I. Plus one of the ingredients were water chestnuts...who doesn't like water chestnuts?!
I put it all in the casserole dish and as I placed it in the refrigerator where it would stay until tez could heat it up before I came home from work I thought to myself:
HHHHmmm, this is supposed to be a vegetarians dish?! so I'm supposed to eat THIS instead of meat?... I don't know if this will be enough for tez... better put out some fish.
Six o' clock I get a call from Tezar that goes a little something like this:
Hey babe?
-Yea, what's up?
Ummm is the casserole you were talking about in the refrigerator?
-Yup, the one with the blue cover
So you want me to remove the cover and put aluminum foil on it and then put it in the oven
-Yup
Are you sure this is the casserole
-Uh huh
But... it's... all.... vegetables
-Yea its one of those healthy one's I was going to try out
UUUmm ok, so I'll just put these "delicious vegetables" in the oven now...
I get home to see Tezar eyeing the casserole as if it's a stranger in the house...
I notice that the nice green vegetables now resemble some sort of brown mush...
I tell myself, once again, that this will be better than it looks until Tez thwarts me into reality by saying........
"Please don't make me eat that"
I start to laugh...the mirage vanished
We then proceeded to eat the fish and then get some Ben and Jerry's ice cream for dessert
Well, you win some you loose some.
