What's for dinner?

Normally, I love to plan my meals ahead, but I was cleaning out the fridge last night, and decided to create a meal on items that were not going to make it much longer if we didn't eat them. So here's what we have:

1lb of Organic Kale
3 Organic Portabella Mushrooms
1 Organic Red Onion
1 Head of Organic Cauliflower
1 Bag of Organic Broccoli
Follow Your Heart Monterey Jack
1 Box of Whole Wheat Orecchiette Pasta
Organic Garlic
3 Pieces of Gardein Chick'n Scallopini

After a minute of debating, I boiled the pasta, steamed the cauliflower, sautéed the mushrooms, onion, broccoli and garlic while heating the Chick'n and lastly tossing the kale in with the other veggies and a little vegetable broth. When the cauliflower was soft enough, I put it in the food processor with some nutritional yeast, a little earth balance and I sprinkled in a little Himalayan sea salt and pepper then whipped it into a mash. When the pasta and vegetables were done I mixed them all together and shredded a little bit of Monterey Jack over it. I served the cauliflower mas and chick'n on the side. It was quite a combination of flavors that all balanced each other. Everyone loved it.

Intro to my blog...

Friends and family who are not vegan are always asking, "What do you eat?", so this blog is partly to answer that question. I plan on writing and posting pictures quite frequently to show it is not hard to be vegan and enjoy many wonderful meals. I am a true believer in Dr. Joel Fuhrman's "Eat to Live" book. I really try hard to incorporate as many fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and nutrients in general, as the main focus around our meals. I do enjoy some omni subs, although, I try to make meals using mostly whole foods. Please excuse the grammar upfront, I am a cook, not a writer! (Even though I wish I were.)
