Yummy Dinner/Lunch

So since I am almost unemployed, and a pretty cheap person all around, I try to bring my lunch to work. Its extremely easy to get bored of sandwiches and extremely easy to get lazy and want to just buy my lunch. The trick I have had to find is come up with really easy and yummy items to bring for lunch.

My newest love HUMMUS! Then I just bring pita chips, pretzels, carrots, and celery.

I was shopping at the grocery store this week and found cooked shrimp for 4 dollars! Shrimp is my absolute favorite so I bought with no clue whatsoever what I would do with it. Tonight when I decided to cook I wanted to make rice and add in crunchy chow mien noodles to it. The problems: I dont know how to cook rice and I dont know how to make a yummy sauce for the shrimp.






So I managed to make Jasmine rice with the help of the directions on the package and looked up what I can put in a sauce. I ended up using soy sauce, garlic, butter, peanut sauce, rice wine vinegar, white wine vinegar, and toasted sesame seeds.


The finished delicious dish:
