Welcome to another week! I must admit that not all of today's meals are going to win any presentation awards, but they were all fast and delicious. Breakfast - Vegetable Medley Including: -rounds of radish and carrot, sauteed in avocado oil, and topped with hemp hearts -pickled red cabbage -avocado Lunch - 'Re-fried Beans' with Guacamole Usually my re-fried beans are a bit fancier, but I made this meal in a rush. The beans were made by frying finely chopped onion, adding a rinsed can of black beans, and then mashing the mixture together. The guacamole was made with three ripe avocados, two cloves of garlic pressed through a garlic press, and about a tablespoon of lime juice, mashed together. I use a potato masher to mash food like this, its easier than a fork and easier to clean that an appliance. I ate this on a bed of rice. I know it doesn't look all that good, but I promise it was quite delicious. Dinner - Coconut Chickpea Curry
As is often the case, I threw this dish together with the ingredients I had available. It would have been even more delicious with some minced fresh ginger or curry powder, but it still worked out quite well! Ingredients: -one onion, minced -two cloves of garlic, peeled and minced -large sweet potato, peeled and diced -three medium-sized carrots, peeled and diced -can of water chestnuts, drained and chopped -one can of coconut milk -one can of chickpeas, rinsed -one tbsp. ground cumin -cilantro, as a garnish -lime juice Instructions: Start by sauteing the onion and garlic in a bit of oil. Dump in the rest of the vegetables and the coconut milk and, after the mixture has heated up, simmer at a medium-low temperature until the vegetables become soft. Add the chickpeas and cumin and simmer until warm. Serve with fresh lime juice and cilantro.
