Adding half of a ripe avocado cubed up was just the perfect idea! I ate it so quick, I forgot to take a picture of it, you'll have to imagine based on the recipe pic...

Made this and loved it. Tripled the garlic though. :shocking:

rice
 
Veggie Lovers,

Today's dinner: Organic, mostly...

jasmine rice boiled in coconut milk and H20 - an experiment, a bit sticky but tasty

adzuki beans cooked in sauteed garlic, onions, peanut oil, crushed peanuts, a bit of sea salt,
and crushed tomatoes, spinach, still cooking...looking forward to
see how it works, another experiment.

portabello mushroom cap pizzas:


clean out a giant mushroom cap (stem and gills)
brush gently with olive oil
fill cap with sauce (spaghetti/pasta/marinara- whatever you like)
top with cheese
or whatever toppings


place on a cookie sheet, or pan lines with aluminum foil (easy clean up) under the broiler for about maybe 10 minutes, until cheese has a nice crust and is bubbly

Dinner
 
Farmer's Market pick-ups:

for dinner a salad of heirloom tomato slice to medium wedges, a blond cucumber(that's what they called it looks like a very light green cucumber), and green scallions a bit of sea salt, ground pepper, and extra virgin olive oil...delicious folks, delicious light and all organic.

and my green smoothie, well had that this morning after my beach run...great day...meeting some warm, and friendly folks...really I should get out more...smiling.

and then...
 
So, this was very tasty...I experiment a lot and want to share some additional info on this dish

I added first garlic crushed, scallions, the mushrooms, carrots coarsely chopped, cilantro finely chopped,
spinach then added 1/4 teaspoon of raw organic honey...

boiled the water for the angel hair, threw those in for 3-4 min then drained, cool H2O, back in warm pot with a bit of olive oil...

saute was ready, and I added some of the angel hair pasta to these ingredients mixed and about 1min later it was ready.

It all took about 30mis without rushing, except of course I was hungry. It was delicious and visually appealing, a must for me.

Now with Laerkin's new website my experimentation with have some new ways of doing this vegan cooking. Looking forward to checking out her new website.

The rest of the angel hair pasta I'll take for lunch tomorrow with a salad.

Oh boy, this sounds delicious!

I am definitely trying this idea!

I might try adding the other toppings we like.

I've made it over 160 days being vegetarian (no meat/fish) and going strong!

Laerkin 07-21-2013 05:38 PM

Partially because my cooking is so awesome (other than the okra curry coins I made this morning?), right???

Congrats, boo! :D

leftovers
 
Green smoothie for breakfast, and lunch no salad today for lunch...

Yesterday's angel hair pasta...I added first garlic crushed, scallions a lot, then heirlooms tomatoes coarsely chopped a lot of them, cilantro,
spinach then added 1/4 teaspoon of raw organic honey...and today I added blueberries to this saute...

boiled the water for the angel hair, threw those in for 3-4 min then drained, cool H2O, back in warm pot with a bit of olive oil...

saute was ready, and I added some of the angel hair pasta to these ingredients mixed and about 1min later it was ready.

It looked beautiful...and I enjoyed the blueberries in the saute...not mushy, but kind of crunchy and tasty.

Tomorrow? Who knows...we'll see what I still have in the fridge.

regards veggie lovers, Greco

Dinner...differently
 
Hi Veggie Lovers,

Ok, today I had an idea...why not put my heirloom tomatoes, and broccoli into my smoothie for dinner...

Alright, so I took frozen organic broccoli, cut several tomatoes and steamed them...the heat brings out the most nutrition out of the tomatoes, and the broccoli...as soon as the broccoli was no longer frozen, and the tomatoes a bit soft I put them into the blender...

16oz of filtered H2O, 2 bananas, chia seeds, spinach, yes my blueberries, then the tomatoes, and broccoli...2 tablespoons of my green powder as well, blend, blend, blend...taste...delicious, a bit crunchy...and its pure love of the Sun, and Mother Earth for my body, mind, and spirit...Christ, I sound like a commercial...smiling, really satisfying, easy, cool in this Summer heat...not to mention nutritious.

And I have enough for tomorrow's breakfast...enjoy your evening, Greco

Interesting, I've been making breakfast smoothies for a long time this one you posted I like. I make fruits and veggie ones, I'm not a vegetarian by any means I just do it to stay healthy.

I am looking for a good veggie burger recipe. I want something hearty like a "Garden Burger" something easy with nuts and gains. I am tired of the black bean combos. But I know if I can't put it together easy I won't do it. Is that confusing or what? :)

Way to go! It gets easier and easier with time!
