Today’s Simple Dinner – Soup, Chinese Sausage & Steamed Eggs With Tomatoes

Goodness, it’s so hot out there! Normally I don’t feel the heat after I close the main door. But today I can feel it.

I couldn’t bear with the heat just now, so I turned off my computer and read magazines in the bedroom.

I tell you, I love the bedroom very much. It’s cool even though it’s scorching hot out there. Hubby came back from school at 5 p.m. and drifted into sleep a few seconds after he went into the bedroom.

It’s 6 p.m. now and the dinner is ready. Fast, right? Of course, I just had to heat up the leftover dishes like Sheung Tong Yuen Choi and Lap Cheong.

Actually, there’s no more Yuen Choy in the soup; there are only red dates and wolfberries in the soup.

I added a very simple dish to tonight’s dinner, that is, Steamed Chicken and Salted Duck Eggs with Tomatoes. Last Wednesday, I did this egg dish, but at that time I didn’t use salted duck egg.

I used 4 tomatoes, 1 salted duck egg and 1 chicken egg for this egg dish.

Do you know that both men and women should eat more tomatoes, especially cooked tomatoes?

According to Dr. Edward Giovannucci of the Harvard University School of Public Health, eating tomatoes, ketchup, tomato sauce and tomato paste-topped pizza more than two times a week can reduce the risk of prostate cancer by 21 to 43 percent.

According to research from the University of Illinois at Chicago, Lycopene, the nutrient in tomatoes, helps women guard against cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia, (CIN), tumorous tissue growth in the cervix.
