Vegan Challenge - Day 6
Day 6 was much easier due to actually having groceries in the house that I would be able to eat.
Quinoa is fabulous. It’s like a beany barley type product. I was smelling it as it was cooking and I wasn’t terribly enthusiastic because it smelled sort of like…boiling sunflower hulls. I should have taken a picture of the dish I made with it, but I was so hungry I just scarfed it down. The quinoa itself has a beautiful appearance once it is cooked. I can’t describe it.
Bug’s Quinoa Mess In A Bowl
- 1/4 Cup Quinoa (uncooked)
- Organic red kidney beans (canned)
- Unsalted diced tomatoes (canned)
- Green chilies
- Crushed red pepper flakes
- Chili powder
Prepare Quinoa (1 part quinoa : 1.5 parts water, salt, boil, reduce to low, simmer till the water is absorbed). Rinse beans, tomatoes. Put beans, tomatoes, and chilies in a dish, nuke till hot. Once quinoa was finished, add chili powder and red pepper flakes. Lump everything into a bowl, stir, enjoy.
My favorite kinds of foods are casseroles/single bowl dishes and this one was a hit with me. I didn’t offer Hugo any because I was in the mood for something muy picante and he’s not a fan of spicy food.
I’m going to have to try that one, plus it’s super easy. You could of always set him some aside before adding pepper and chili powder maybe? But then would it of tasted good…
i noticed that third wheel clothing is rather high on the page……… above the fold, if you will ;):D
