2016, Year of the Vegan

[Catherine]

I approach cooking my meals differently and I am stocking my cupboards differently. I actually used quinoa in my meal tonight. I had rice, grains and nuts with some quinoa mixed in with a mushroom mixed veggie stir fry. It wasn't bad. I liked it. The big thing is the fact that I did it with things I had in my kitchen. I tossed it together as a healthy, tasty meal.  Cooking differently is starting to be normal and I have some sense of what I can make.

I don't like to fuss with recipes. I like to be able to put a meal together from what I have on hand.  I always have the fresh veggies because of the guinea pigs. I have grains, beans, lentils, nuts, rices and quinoa. I should be able to come up with something good everyday.

I am working at vegan one meal at a time.
