Big food Thursday

For lunch on Thursday, I had some of my leftover chicken noodle soup, and the cafeteria was doing chicken fried rice, so I grabbed one of their great egg rolls

The egg roll was plenty meaty, as I got a shot to show. The soup had thickened up so much, I only had a portion in the cup, and had to add some hot water from the fountain and nuke it to make it back into a soup as opposed to more of a casserole consistency.

For dinner, Jesse and I hit up the Longhorn steakhouse. I went with a salad, and their Shrimp Scampi Filet.

I forgot to get a pic before working on the salad. It was much fuller than that beforehand, I assure you. Oh and it had Italian dressing. I've been trying to branch out from my usual honey mustard dressing I get on them. I didn't finish it, as my lunch was very filling and I wanted to be sure I could eat all of the steak.

I did manage to remember to get a pic of the steak before I ate it, however not before I ate the three big shrimp that were on top of it. It was very good, nice and tender, good seasoning and the shrimp and other stuffing was a nice compliment. The baked potato was cooked well, but their salt shaker didn't want to dispense the salt out of it, so the potato suffered from that.

Wrap and a bird

For lunch today, I tried another turkey, ham and bacon wrap from the cafeteria:

As you can see, this time it didn't stick to the paninni press (and they had bacon). It was ok, not too great.

For dinner, I had a chicken soup craving, so I baked 3 chicken breasts, seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic salt. Once they were done cooking, I cut two up and tossed them in a pot with a bunch of chicken broth, got it boiling and added some egg drop soup seasoning. After it cooked for a while, I tossed in some rice noodles and most of a cut up potato.

I didn't get a pic of any of it.

The chicken breast I did eat was OUTSTANDING. I don't know if it was just a superb piece of meat or if I hit the exact perfect amount of seasoning or what, but it was tastier than it had any right to be. And the soup... oh man, it was outstanding too. It was so good, in fact, that I regretted eating the chicken breast earlier, because I wanted a second bowl of it.
