What would we do without Wegmans? Right? We have all heard it before, I mean...even Alec Baldwin has said it, we have the best supermarket in the country. His mom won't move closer to him because she won't leave Wegmans!
I also love to support local businesses, but I think the only better thing would be if they sold wine at the supermarket. I would just like the convenience. (Sorry Louis!...my local wine store owner)
Anyways, I love to grocery shop...and could Wegmans possibly make it any easier for you? Meals under $6...Make it or Take it...Cleaned and cut veggies of all sorts...etc. I am usually one who will buy my own stuff and clean and cut it myself, but on occasion, those stir-fry vegetables or already cut up slaws are just too easy to pass up. AND...have you been to their website? I went to my freezer on Sunday and said to myself, "I have to use some of this stuff up!" So I took out two items (to make separately) and you plug them into Wegmans website and they pop out a recipe (or ten) for you to make with your ingredient. I had a sirloin steak and couldn't remember what I had in mind when I bought it, so I typed it in and this was one of the recipes that popped up. Not that we haven't had stir fry before, but I also knew I had the Sesame Garlic Sauce.
It took me all of ten minutes to prep and prepare because of course, I bought the Cleaned and Cut Stir Fry Veggies. Broccoli, snow peas, carrots and bok choy...no slicing or chopping required. And if you know you won't use the rest of a head of broccoli or bag of carrots...how can you go wrong? 10 more minutes in a wok...
(Side story...I have been looking at woks for about a year and wouldn't buy one because they were too expensive. Well, remember when my sis took me to all her favorite Asian stores? I got one for $10. $10! I still can't believe it! I love it!)
...and we were ready to eat. The only suggestion from Josh was to add the "heat" to the cooking process next time rather than add it afterwards. I fully agree...but as you can see in the pic...that's Josh's thumbs up approval! LOL
