Alright, let me tell you about my little cooking adventure today. I’ve been trying to eat healthier and keep my blood sugar in check, so I decided to try out some of those 4-ingredient diabetic recipes. Sounds easy enough, right?
First Up: Veggie Omelette
Started my day with a veggie omelette. I just grabbed some eggs, chopped up whatever veggies I had in the fridge – which happened to be some spinach, bell peppers, and onions – and that’s it! I whisked the eggs, threw in the veggies, and cooked it up in a pan with a little bit of olive oil. Seasoned with salt and pepper, of course.
- Eggs
- Spinach
- Bell peppers
- Onions
Honestly, it turned out pretty good! Simple, tasty, and didn’t take much time at all.
Lunchtime: Salmon-Stuffed Avocados
For lunch, I tried something a bit different – salmon-stuffed avocados. I had some canned salmon lying around, so I mixed it with a bit of mayo and some chopped celery. Then, I just halved an avocado, took out the pit, and filled it with the salmon mixture.
- Canned salmon
- Mayo
- Celery
- Avocado
It was surprisingly delicious and filling! Plus, avocados are packed with good fats, which is a bonus.
Dinner Experiment: Sheet-Pan Chicken Fajita Bowls
Dinner was a bit more adventurous. I decided to make these sheet-pan chicken fajita bowls. Basically, I chopped up some chicken breast, bell peppers, and onions, tossed them with some fajita seasoning, and spread them out on a baking sheet. Then, I just baked it in the oven until everything was cooked through.
- Chicken breast
- Bell peppers
- Onions
- Fajita seasoning
Instead of using tortillas, I served it over a bed of lettuce. It was like a healthier, deconstructed fajita!
All in all, not a bad day in the kitchen! These 4-ingredient recipes are definitely a lifesaver when you’re short on time or ingredients. And they’re pretty tasty too, which is always a plus. I think I’ll be making these again for sure!
