FOOD prep in Micro?// lifestyle, @home, tips


THE BEST WAY TO MICRO YOUR FOOD

Since the pandemic  , the fact we couldn't dine out or go to restaurants was not possible.
Now we can with of course the proper requirements .  I suppose like most of us we have been
cooking and baking a lot more the usual.  I will say, i am really tired of cooking. I wanted a break from it. So one option was the easy micro meals.  Some are pretty tasty and easy, plus it was to hot
to cook last week.



We had a few dinners that were fine, a pasta meat combo and a meatball puree potato one. both were
tasty and quick.  It does remind me of airplane foods, just not on a plane.

Just lately i read a report on using microwaves to prepare foods or vegetables. A very interesting study and informative .

HOW TO HEAT YOUR MEALS IN MICRO

Certains vegetables lose their nutrition when microwaved,  it also depends on the power level and amount of water , and time. Less water, less power level and less time  seems to be the answer .

The container, plastic according to the report is NOT the best! Also to use safe  products with the stamps to use in micro.

BEST is use a glass or ceramic to heat  your foods drinks etc, Avoid plastics.

CORNINGWARE SET





PYREX 


Usually when i do use the micro i will use a glass bowl for the vegetables and very little water, i don't
like my veggies soggy. I also use  corning ware which is ideal for microwave.
Pyrex or corning ware are ideal for that, plus they can be used in the oven.

So if you are into preparing your foods in the microwave , here are a few tips for you.

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

 Doing Denim  I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable.  For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short.  I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days.  Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it.  Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets.  There are so many ways to style a denim dress.  A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses  I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck. 

Favorite Things 2023//fashion , items

 Favorite things  I really didn’t go overboard with any purchases in 2023.  Trying to keep to the sustainable fashion idea  of shopping my closet or using what I have .  Mind you there were somethings I thought about getting like a new pair of sunglasses, some shoes  sandals, new purse , but I still need new sunglasses. My old pair has some scratches on them sadly.  The two pieces I did get I absolutely love . Firstly a linen blend blazer in cream shade. It goes with so many things so can’t wait to spring to wear it again.  Also the new wrap dress I bought in spring.  The color I loved , the fit and style is nice to wear for dinners out, parties or weddings. A very versatile piece.   The other item was from a previous year but I had forgotten about it  was a nice surprise. I wore it over Christmas holidays. and got compliments on it . A knit top with sparkle accents.  It was so comfortable and warm . Absolutely loved it.  ...
