i have lost 10 lbs in three weeks.. No real set meal times, just whenever we are hungry... We also have missie k with us, who is home from college.. She is not vegan but, I cook most of her meals.. Sometimes with meat, sometimes with us.. She is super in to ground turkey these last few weeks and learning to cook for herself.. I taught her some seasoning things I like. She loves making a mustard salad dressing.
Occasionally I will cook for her when she gives me her measured ingredients.. X amount of turkey weighed, olive oil measured and then i can add spices and procedures and such...
This was a turkey kebab. I grated ginger and garlic and added soy and cornstarch and garam masala and I forget what else.. Avocado salad. Also, i used barely any oil which blew her mind.. So, now she may get interested in grilling.
a couple of days later.. Ackee, spinach, chickpeas, I made that cilantro.. I had the ackee sitting out longer and the brine taste dissipated a bit.. Stronger flavors accompanied it as well. I liked the ackee this time around. I also cooked it lighting with some oatmilk and tried to imitate scrambled eggs. This was a winner.. This or something like this should go on a menu soon.
The green sauce I made for fried yuca.. That was dinner one night... 2 jalapenos, i head of cilantro, 2 garlic cloves, cumin, vegan mayo, a little lime a little vinegar, salt, pepper, sugar.
i have been making lots of juice with leftover vegetables.. Anything about to go bad, gets tossed in.. lettuce, peppers, ginger, jalapeno, apple, celery, carrot, the list goes on.. just juice it. I like a lot of lime and ginger in whatever juice i make
look at how youthful it makes me look
chana masala nachos with fake cheese, fake sour cream, fake meat.. served with a really good real salsa of tomatoes, thai chiles, cilantro, avocado. This was pretty damn good actually
I made a few other things this weekend.. A vegan pasta, some lettuce wraps with the peanut sauce, cucumber dish chinese dish, a couple of rice noodle dishes... Lots of vegan things.
This is kind of funny... for the first time in my adult life, I do not have butter in my fridge.. So, we have now started using mayo and my MIL margarine she left, to make grilled cheese sandwiches.. The boy has made no mention, of the change. Also, we are starting to make some headway with spicy foods.
