Going on week two of eating a plant based diet, also cutting out alcohol.. I am down 8 pounds and feeling great. I am eating one big meal in the evening with a little something mid day..I don't know if I would have eaten dinner if i didn;t feel like cooking as I wasn't so hugnry.. But, I did cook and it was really good.
I covered a cauliflower head in harissa.. I added some oil to the top and water to the bottom.. Roasted at 400 degrees covered with 45 minutes and uncovered for another 20..
I made a tahini and served with the cauliflower.. Also made a dal.. the dal was a little spicy and i also added palm sugar which gave it a great sweetness.. The dal had cayenne, a hot sauce my friend made, cinnamon, a little clove, garam masala, star anise, tomato paste, onion, ginger, garlic and paprika.
salad was ginger dressing with soy and sesame oil.
