Veggies in the morning, veggies in the evening
veggies at supper time
Veggies when I'm feeling sick
and veggies when I'm fine
Veggies in my pancakes
Veggies on my toast
I am the Queen of Veggies
Of that I can boast!
This morning I looked in my fridge - the first thing that caught my eye was a bowl of brown rice left over from last night's dinner. I considered adding some almond milk and a few raisins to make a creamy rice porridge. However, my cookies caught my eye and I decided against having a sweet breakfast so I could indulge in a cookie with my late morning cup of tea.
So I raided my veggie drawer and found a nice colorful selection - a carrot, piece of kabocha squash and half a zucchini. I grated them and added a big pinch of sea salt, 1/2 tsp. of the lovely garam masala which my friend Tara gave me for Christmas - it's her Indian grandmother's secret recipe and it's always by my stove these days. To that I added 1/2 cup amaranth flour, 1/2 cup spelt flour about 2 Tbs. coconut flour and 1 tsp. baking powder. I felt like a little protein, so I separated an egg, added the yolk to the mix and beat the eggwhite till it was stiff. Then I added enough water to make a thick pancake batter and folded in the eggwhite. I cooked them in coconut oil, but you can use olive oil or ghee. To serve, I made a little sauce with vegannaise and minced parsley...oh yeah!
sounds DELISH!!! I couldn't get my family to eat them though... one day I will get to cook just for ME!
