Introducing Hot Pocket!

I am usually the one who cook or prepare meals but whenever I feel lazy or too tired to do so, hubby will do it.
If everyone in the household is working or if you live by yourself, preparing a meal can be a tiring task, all the washing, cutting and cleaning…. nevertheless I believe that nobody should be deprived of wholesome meal. Still, it doesn’t mean if you always eat complicated cooked meals it is wholesome or nutritious because one can cook all the nutrients/vitamins away. So I usually watch the variety of colors (of the veggies) that I’m eating and to include beans or legumes, squash, leafy vegetables…etc. in my diet. At least, I tried. I realize being a vegetarian makes us eat more of the variety of plants and after some researches I did over the years, nope, I don’t think vegetarian will deprive of protein or B12 because you can get that from plants or supplement! and if you eat right.

Hubby usually prepare the dinner on Wednesday since I will be home late after my Pilates and dance classes.
Anyway, here’s one of those quick, simple and easy meal he came up with the other day and I’m loving it because it’s not only yummy and nutritious, the most important thing… it’s FAST! LOL!!!
And I named it Hot Pocket, hubby doesn’t agree with the name, he said it’s just pita bread but I like to call it Hot Pocket. Okay to warn you, it’s not like a fancy woo wow kind of meal, hahahaha, just that I’m thrill we discovered something simple and easy to prepare at home which is much healthier than instant noodle. Of course, you can get this kind of food or wrap anywhere in the restaurant but at anytime a home cooked meal is better, right?

These are the ingredients we use:
Pita bread – warm the pita bread on a pan
Stuffing:
-organic pre-washed salad mix
- stir fried chopped celery, soy ham, organic sweet corn, organic green peas, and pine nuts
- sliced olives
- sliced avocado
Sauce: we use Kewpie mayonnaise (In M’sia- you can get it from Jusco), (in US- in Chinese supermarket/ Japanese supermarket)
I also love it with my homemade salad dressing made from Dijon mustard.
