I saw this old school recipe online the other day and decided to make it as meal prep for my weekly breakfast. How was it? Good! The only thing is, I make such a huge batch that I get tired of it pretty easily. That’s the thing about meal prepping, I save a lot of money and time but get so tired of the food by day 3 or so. Wish I had the mentality of eating to live rather than living to eat. Hard life (lol). Anyway, I’ll share the recipe below. I think I found this from the Electric Kitchen website. The only thing I changed was to add rehydrated bean thread noodles at the bottom of my container before pouring over the stir-fry to make it a heartier dish and because I’m carb crazy.

Noods!!!!


love watercress. so expensive now.
I should make this – but maybe not with the carrots. And maybe with ground pork because I don’t have regular pork. And hmmmm. I don’t want to buy a whole bunch of watercress. I wish I was your neighbor.
looks delicious
