Katie's Tropical Stir-fry


Today I had lunch with my friend Quinn after our engineering lab. I went straight to Nelson dining hall with only a half hour to eat before my biology class. I scoped over all the food available—most the same as usual—and quickly decided on a tropical vegetable stir-fry. This consists of onions, peppers, pineapple, and mangos over rice with a tangy tropical sauce. I have had this entrée before—most of the time very delicious—but today it was not up to standard. There was way too many onions and not enough pineapple and mangos. Even though the main entrée was a letdown, the dessert improved the entire meal. There was a cookie-decorating bar with sugar cookies, frosting, and toppings. Once the cookie was made, my hunger from the letdown of the stir-fry went away. I sat at a table with a few friends but had to leave early in order to make it to my next class.  Some days it is difficult to squeeze lunch into my busy schedule but it is definitely an improvement in my day when I get to spend it with my friends. I hope my next meal will be an improvement over lunch.

  1. deserts always the best, and the entrees are always bland and repetitive. Its always better to make the desert your meal.

  2. I agree. Rice krispy day and frost-a-cupcake day are my favorites!
