. . .especially if you are what you eat!  I have a lot of favorite foods from all different cuisines; however, Japanese food is probably the most consistent!  Whether sushi, teriyaki, or tempura - I'm a fan. 

Anyway, tomorrow I'm "returning to my roots," as I have my first audition in almost EIGHT years!  How this actress lost her way is beyond me, but I am beyond excited to be in touch with that part of me, even if it doesn't move beyond the audition round.  As the audition is for a musical, I'm trying to remember all of the tips and tricks; warm up scales, honey lemon water, hot tea, and no dairy (it causes phleghm, ew). 

Okay, so no dairy.  That doesn't give me a lot of options for dinner.  Italian?  Too cheesy.  Etc, etc, etc.  What could I cook that won't have milk or cheese?  Japanese!  Plus Peter's a fan, so a major win!

Tonight's Menu:
Chicken Soup with Udon Noodles
- Teriyaki Vegetables
- Teriyaki Salmon (for me)
- Seared Tuna (for Peter)


Picture
I started off by chopping my vegetables.
Picture
Threw my onions in a saute pan with a little bit of olive oil.
Picture
After the onions were slightly translucent, I threw in the zucchini and broccoli with 3 tablespoons of Teriyaki Sauce and a tablespoon of Soy Sauce.
Picture
Salmon is marinating a combination of teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, ginger, and a touch of brown sugar.

It's Grill Time!

Peter's Tuna (I didn't get a picture of him searing it!)
This is one of those dinners that Peter and I can put together in less than 30 minutes, and without a recipe to follow!  I apologize that I don't have exact quantities, we kind of eyeball everything!

Until next time :)
