Cooking Dinner for Two

I usually like to cook on Sundays. Since Jeff caught a cold this weekend, I thought it's a great opportunity to cook some nutritious dinner for the both of us. I crave Chinese cuisine most of the time, so I had a few dishes in mind. Sometimes we cook pasta dishes together, as Jeff's a big fan of Italian as well. Sunday afternoon, I got the ingredients from Whole Foods (I love shopping there), and here's what's for dinner --

Sunday:

• Sauteed tilapia in wine and soy sauce
• Baby bok choy stir fried with garlic
• Chicken soup with shitaki mushrooms

Monday:

• Sauteed flank steak with green onions and hot peppers (蔥爆牛肉)
• Broccoli stir fried with garlic
• Chicken soup with shitaki mushrooms

Since Jeff is a better cook then I am, I'm always the sous chef when we cook together. So whenever I'm cooking by myself, I wanted to "try" to impress him :) The flank steak dish is one of Jeff's favorites, so I got the recipe from Jeff's mom. Honestly, I was under some pressure when cooking this dish ><... Fortunately, it was a success, and Jeff loved it! The chicken soup was also a triumph this time (taste like professional made thanks to my secret ingredients), which also helped remedy Jeff's cold.

I love cooking for the two of us.
