It is always a new adventure in the kitchen, or just simple, and easy ‘hurry up! I have to go, no time for anything fancy!’
Last Saturday we were ready to go to the Grocery Store and there was no time for mixing up anything fancy, so I had a potato.
No, actually I had two, and that was breakfast.
Oh yeah, I spread Frenches Mustard on it pretty thick.
Yes, all those horrible ‘carbs’ and plain mustard.
It was a wonderful breakfast.
And easy too.
Another ‘hurry up meal’.
Steamed Potatoes, then sliced, and roasted in the Hot Air Cooker till nice and brown.
The patty was a blending of a lot of left overs based in Black Beans, and maybe a 1/2 a cup of whole wheat flower to bind it together with the blended corn, Leafy Green Salad additions that made the veggie patty seen in the picture.
You can take one of those patties and make a really good burger too!
Next is one of the last pieces of Sweet Potato Pie I made from a recipe from Dr John McDougalls site.
No sugar or oil used however, I did use a prefab crust, because I didn’t get started early enough to make my own. I failed to plan properly.
Later today I will make a Pumpkin Pie and also make the Crust according to the recipe.
The sweet potato pie is gone!
And the last entry today is the Dill Pickle Rice.
I have done this before and liked it…. Dill Pickle Rice.
I wonder what else you can use to flavor rice?
This jar of pickles were consumed over a couple of meals, so I decided to use the liquid for soaking the rice.
I added one cup of Brown Rice and let them get to know each other for about 32 hours.
No particular reason for the time of 32 hours, it was just that amount of time before I needed to put the Rice in the Instant Cooker.
I have started cooking only one cup of Rice since I use it sooner, and it doesn’t dry out as soon…. of course, you can always remedy that by reheating it in the steam of the IP while the Greens are steaming.
Nice.
I am getting hungry.
Well, that is the most current update on my adventures in the kitchen…
More later…
And just one quick question….
How can people be so afraid carbs?
I never count calories, never measure protein, never FEAR CARBS.
