Prawns with ginger quinoa fried rice with kale

This morning when I went grocery shopping I saw some prawns and thought why not. Tonight I made prawns with ginger quinoa fried rice and kale.

I had some leftover quinoa rice which would be perfect for fried rice.

Watch me eat my meal


This morning I went for a walk around Lake Ginninderra. I had hoped to have a milkshake at Heather’s House of Cake but it was closed for a private function.  I may have to go there tomorrow. It was fairly overcast but the water was very still.

I used a 24–240 mm f/3.5–f/6.3 zoom lens. This zoomed in shot captured the trees on the north shore nicely.

Today there were a couple of pelicans on the lake. I was able to get up close to this one.

After lunch I made lunch which was a salmon rissole, baked beans, fried egg and avocado.
