My usual and yawn-drawing lunches these days. As you may very well observe, all proteins are FISH. At the beginning ,this choice was influenced by how easy and fast it is to cook. Now, however, it's become a constant hankering (and still also because it's most convenient).
Yesterday afternoon, I had #1. I was pretty excited as I haven't had red cabbages in a while. The usual, I grilled the fish. I don't know what kind of fish it was but I do remember it being cheap and VERY VERY OILY. Its fishy taste lingered in the back of my throat. It made me sick, I couldn't eat dinner. I wanted to hurl and cry. I was being extra-emotional. It was that time of the month.
Now I understand why I was always so afraid to try anything apart from salmon. But now I know better than to be frugal when fish-picking.
After yesterday's regrettable lunch experience, I can't bring myself to have fish again. The trauma is still there. But neither do I find myself wanting anything else BUT fish. It doesn't make sense but I haven't had red meat in two weeks and I'm hoping for a good streak until my next holiday.
Perhaps I'll have some shrimp this afternoon.
I need inspiration for my future lunches so I'm going on Amazon to buy this book.
Any fish suggestions there?
