When I started cooking dinner tonight I had no idea what I was doing.

Despite my love for meal planning I don’t have a current meal plan. Just feeding myself doesn’t seem worth the work to make a meal plan so I am just winging it. I just went to the kitchen around dinner time and decided to make something with chicken.

Luckily it worked out to be pretty nice!

Random mix dinner

I started with pre cooked and sliced frozen chicken in a skillet and added half a red bell pepper. After cooking these two things together for a few minutes until the pepper softened the apartment smelled amazing. I love the smell of cooked red peppers.

Chicken corn stuff

From there I spent a few minutes wondering what exactly I was planning to make. I had no idea halfway through!

I “borrowed” a can of black beans and a can of corn from the roomies and added that to the mix. Then I realized I need more veggie power so I added some frozen broccoli for a bit of green goodness. Seasoned with salt (eh), pepper, and ground red pepper.

Ta-da!

Not bad tasting for a meal concocted without a plan or recipe. I love one skillet/pot meals like this because they are so ridiculously easy and still taste great. I might actually make this one for Kepa at some point in the future as a super fast meal.

After dinner I got sucked into the world of Memphis food blogs and restaurants. There are so. many. good. places. here. So many new places to try!  There is going to be a food truck rodeo downtown on Thursday so you better believe I’m eating at that. I love a good food truck!
