We had a lot of leftover chorizo pasta. To serve something green, I made sesame green beans. I stir-fried half a bag of frozen green beans in sesame oil, added toasted sesame seeds and one packet of Chinese restaurant soy sauce.
Doris was doing her calm jar right before dinner. When asked what her Moody Cow thoughts were, she said "These green beans make me sad." Then later when Karen said "Thanks for the good meal, Mommy." Doris said "This is not such a good meal, Mommy."
So it was not a hit. At least not with Doris. Oh well. Now I'm eating the rest of the chorizo pasta for lunch for the rest of the week so that it doesn't get wasted.
Green beans; $1.50
Sesame oil: 30 cents
Sesame seeds 10 cents
Total: $$1.90 (63 cents per person)
At least it was cheap even if it wasn't liked.
