Green Onion Pancakes
Hi friends! Hope you had a great weekend! Those of you who “Liked” my Facebook page probably realize I have been a cooking fool the last few days… This is kind of unusual because just take a look at the title of my blog “Weeknite Meals”, you should have figured out I don’t normally hang…
Pork Tenderloin Pockets
Do you ever watch that show “Hoarder”? I have on a few occasions, close to dinner time at that (don’t ask me why we stick to that channel when there are literally over one hundred other stations to watch). I am definitely not the most organized person amongst people I know, but my house is…
Roasted Chickpeas
Hi everyone! We are going into the second week of not having a working fridge. After getting rid of whatever was causing that embarrassing stench (I shared this piece of info with my friend while our girls were having a swim playdate, she laughed so hard and called me pathetic, it was pretty awesome), hubby…
Tofu and Ground Pork Kabob
I am having fridge problems! It’s an inconvenience and I am not happy with having to throw spoiled food away, especially when hubby and I have been working hard to figure out our spending and trying build a good budget! The good thing is this is suppose to be the weekend we go grocery shop…
Wonton Skin Wrapped Asparagus
Hi everyone! Hope you had a relaxing weekend. Houston has had a lot of rain, which means the temperature hasn’t been in the 100’s (Yay!). Even though the dampness can get a bit inconvenient, but we have been enjoying the “cool” weather in general. Hubby told me the average Houston household uses around $300 of…
Easy Korean Seafood Pancake
Hi everyone! LONG time no see, I am not too proud to leave you guys hanging, though this is my 200th posting, and I was waiting to share something very special. Even though I’ve been cooking and testing recipes on a regular basis, but nothing seemed worthy of being the “IT” posting. In my mind…
Spicy Korean Cucumber Salad
It’s such a treat when we head to H Mart to grocery shop! I know I know, you must think I don’t get out much, but the truth is there’s just something special about that particular Asian market, is it the smell of delicious Korean deli as soon as we step in the entrance? Or…
Tonkatsu & Japanese Cucumber Salad
Hi friends! It’s panning out to be a busy week, lots of fun projects, meetings/phone calls are lined up. After a sluggish month, I definitely welcome back the fast paced schedule! Taking a breather and just finished eating the leftover Tonkatsu and cucumber salad from last night’s dinner, you know they are great recipes when…
Lemongrass Chicken
Hi friends! I wanted to take a moment to say hi to my old and new visitors… HI!!! Weeknite Meals is approaching it’s 200th posting, still can’t believe it’s only been a little over 2 years. My pet project of keeping up with recipes, and practice cooking techniques has turned into a place of friendship….
Roll Your Own Spring Rolls
Hello friends! How are you doing on this fine Monday? I have been taking it easy the last few weeks, work is normally slow around tax time, so I took advantage of this and did a few small home projects. The front door has been re-stained, I added some decorations to brighten things up a…
Slow Cooker Teriyaki Wings
Hello everyone! Hope you are enjoying warmer Spring like weather now a days. Have you ever heard of the phrase: “I wasn’t born in Texas, but I got here as quick as I could!”. Well around this time of the year, I can say that with a big smile on my face. Last weekend we…
