Great New Recipes

We have started changing our diet to avoid red meat and most meat altogether, which at first I thought would be difficult but is proving to be easier than I thought.  I have actually started to notice that my digestive issues have gotten much better since I quit meat and caffeine.  Not sure which one was the culprit but I’ll take it either way. 

Have found some really flavorful ways of preparing vegetables that I never would have thought of before.  This week we had sauted vegetable fajitas and it was great.  I would say that it was better than meat fajitas.

This was basically zuccini, yellow squash, mushrooms, and pablano peppers sauteed and then serve in tortillas with cheese and avocado.  Really easy to make on a busy night after work and really delicious.

Darren has also introduced me to Chinese soup.  Which apparently just starts with a stock base and then you add whatever you want to it.  It usually includes some type of noodle and mushrooms, bean sprouts, or any other veg that you happen to have on hand.  Also very quick and easy to make and very delicious.  You never get bored with this one either since the taste changes based on whatever you throw in the pot.

Stay tuned for more updates and ideas.
