My food-day started early, at 6 am, as usual. We had a lot to do ahead. I brewed coffee and served it in my favorite mugs.
After I had my coffee, I realized I was going to have enough SP today to get my first Dolphin, so I replaced my little sign for one where I drew a little dolphin. Then I made a quick omelet with the ingredients I had in the fridge.
I folded the ham and cheese omelet and cut it in two parts. I served breakfast with arepas and coffee with milk, which we seldom drink.
The omelet was juicy because of the cheese and the dash of milk I put into the beaten eggs.

We went out to run some errands and visit a couple of stores in the city. When we were back home, I got to work on our lunch immediately. We were starving, so I thought I wouldn't spend much time or effort--or ingredients.
Two large potatoes cut into sticks take 40 minutes in the air fryer, so this was the first side dish I made. I just cut it up and rubbed the sticks with olive pomace oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
I used chicken breast to cover protein needs. I cut it in stripes and seasoned it with freshly crushed garlic, freshly ground black pepper, a dash of olive pomace oil, and salt.
I waited 10 minutes for the meat soak up the flavors and into the hot wok! It was ready in 10 minutes.
While the chicken was on the fire and the fries were about to be ready, I made this parsley vinaigrette.
I planned to serve it on top of boiled white cocoyam (and so I did). Let me tell you how I made; it's rather easy, but you must be careful about hygene--when aren't we?
I finely chopped parsley and red onion. Two parts parsley and one part onion.
In addition, I crushed garlic until I got one tablespoon.
In a separate bowl, I squeezed the juice of a lemon, to which I added the same amount of white vinegar; then I added corn oil and olive oil (three parts corn oil and one part olive oil). The amount of oil should be equal to the amount of juice and vinegar. Then I added 1/2 teaspoon of fine salt. Then I added the crushed garlic and mixed it all well before I poured the vinaigrette over the chopped parsley and onion.
It is important that we mix vegetables and liquids in separate bowls before mixing everything together, since the chopped parsley tends to absorb all the oil, while the chopped onion tends to absorb all the vinegar.
Our fries were finally done, as well as everything else. Time to make a quick spritzer. I mixed Chinotto soda, cheap white wine and ice.
I bought this wine on sale at Traki at $3.00, less than 9 Steems. It is a table wine, fruity and fresh. Very refreshing.
I served our lunch made with delicious but simple flavors, and it all tasted great. It's the magic of simple flavors. I also served handmade chorizo.
Below you can see my plate.
The combination of boiled cocoyam and the vinaigrette was heavenly.
We had coffee after that, instead of dessert.
And when the time came to have dinner, we also went simple: a little bowl of cereal and milk.
And these were the highlights of my food-day.
I hope you have delicious and healthy meals today in good company :)
