New Year and New Me

Given, the coldest winter in many years in America and getting used to the temperatures, my OCD is not working well. I can not have it MY WAY OR HIGH WAY, anymore. It is tiring me out, mentally and physically, with raising 2 kids and a husband who is traveling for work, most of the time.

So, my resolution for this year is to –

  1. Be a better Planner and Organizer.
  2. Ask for HELP, when needed.
  3. Incorporate more of the Easy, Efficient and Nutritious Meals in the Family Menu.

Thanks to Giant Eagle Curb Side Express Delivery , I can envision myself this year, achieving my goals more effectively.

From Giant Eagle Curbside Express Delivery to My Kitchen Table

Yesterday, the schools had announced the closure for today, given the brutal temperatures. I knew that the kids would be home today and hungry the whole day. The refrigerator was empty besides few of this and few of that.

I told the kids that they should stay at home, while I would make a quick trip to Giant Eagle and grab some stuff to make their favorite TEX MEX Vegetarian Cantina Salad Bowl for tomorrow. They wanted to tag along to the store, which I obviously denied.

There was a complete chaos about it. My husband recommended that we should try the Giant Eagle Curbside Express Delivery . The service came as God Send HELP. I ordered what I needed online and the groceries were delivered today at the scheduled time. To my pleasant surprise, the fresh produce quality was prime and intact. They had packed the groceries neatly.

Instructions

Preparing Giant Eagle Instant BROWN RICE

  • Begin with cooking 2 cups of Instant Natural Whole Grain BROWN RICE. It will take about 10 minutes to cook 2 cups of Instant Brown Rice and by that time, 2/3rd of your other prep work will be done. 
    #ad
  • This will yield 4 cups of Ready Instant Brown Rice. I absolutely loved this product since the only ingredient in it is - Precooked Parboiled Whole Grain Brown Rice. There is no preservative or additive to it. Brown Rice can otherwise take a long time to cook, whereas this took only 10 minutes from start to finish to get done and ready to serve.
    #ad

Preparing Fajita Mixed Vegetables

  • Heat oil in a heavy bottom pan. Add onions to it. Stir and cook onions on high to medium heat for about 2 minutes till onions get slightly caramelized.
  • Add rest of the vegetables, cumin powder, fajita seasoning and salt. Give it a good stir. Cook and Stir on high to medium heat for about 3 minutes till vegetables are slightly cooked. We do not want over cooked vegetables. The vegetables still need to be crisp and have a bite.
  • Take it off the heat and set aside.
    #ad

Preapring Easy Pico De Gallo

  • Take a bowl or a medium size mason jar. Add all the ingredients as mentioned under Pico de Gallo to the jar. Give it a good stir or shake. That's it, Pico de Gallo is ready. Set aside.
    #ad

Preparing Cilantro Lime Crema

  • Take a blender and add all the ingredients as mentioned under Cilantro Lime Crema. Give it a good stir in the blender till all the ingredients are blended into a smooth creamy texture. It is ready.
    #ad
  • This is such a delicious dip that you will make again and again.

Preparing Black Bean Salsa

  • Take a microwave safe bowl. Empty the can of Giant Eagle black beans and 1 cup of medium hot salsa to the bowl. Cover and Microwave for 2 minutes. Your Black Bean Salsa is ready. Simple and Easy.

    Love delivery services, especially for some groceries. It seems that more and more supermarkets are offering this service. And I really like that they give you only 1 hour window, so you don’t have to be stuck at home for most of the day waiting for your order.

    I loved your resolution Sonal! I think sometimes we are too hard on ourselves trying to get everything right so this is the best solution especially when winters are harsh out there and cooking / travelling becomes difficult at times. The salad bowl looks fresh and I can see the lovely quality of ingredients that they have packed! Stay warm, enjoy your “me” time.
