I was so tired last night, I crashed at 9:00pm.  That made it possible to get up and go to 6:00am spinning this morning, which I was very happy about.  I made it a chaotic day at school – the kids were super wound up because it is Dr. Seuss’s birthday today!  After school,  I got my oil changed in my car and new wipers put on.  It is like a new car – I can finally see!  My old wipers would totally miss the area that I looked though so I could never see, not very safe I know.

Anyways, by the time I got home I was starving!  I quickly threw some brown rice in my rice cooker.  Then I took the marinated salmon out of the fridge and coated it with sesame seeds.  While that cooked I made the green beans and asparagus.  This was a delicious dish! I can’t wait to make it again!

Sesame Green Beans and Asparagus

  • 1 bag of frozen green beans from TJ’s
  • 1 bunch of asparagus cut and washed
  • 1 1/2 tbl. tahini
  • 3 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp. soy sauce (I used light)
  • 1 tbsp. sesame seeds

Mix green beans and asparagus in stir fry in a frying pan or wok.  While this cooks, mix tahini, vinegar, soy sauce and sesame seeds together in a separate bowl.  When this is combined and the veggies are coked – pour the sauce over the veggies and cook until the sauce coats the veggies.  Serve hot!

This was a great meal!  I had been craving salmon for a while!

Tomorrow we have dinner plans at our neighbors and then our hospital tour on Thursday! 🙂
