So last evening I gave my first real effort to cooking a delicious vegan meal that was more than just microwaving some veggies and topping some brown rice. Now don't get me wrong...by no means was the meal difficult, but I'm proud of the effort and definitely the results. My hubby sat looking at my plate saying, "well I'm ok with eating vegan food...yes, I'd be ok with eating healthier honey...". LOL!
Ok, score one for me! And how easy was that???
So what was the meal?
I simply sauted' some leeks and kale in olive oil and topped them with some rice vinegar. Served it with sliced tomatoes with a lovely seasoning blend on the side. Some toasted whole grain deli rounds topped with some Earth Balance butter. Added a perfectly cooked yukon gold potatoe and I was in heaven!
I took a picture of it but I just can't seem to figure out how to get them on here yet. Of course who knows...random photos may start popping on here from the limbo where I believe I've sent them!
On a side note. While Ididn't decide to go vegan because I wanted to lose weight, I have lost 5 lb. over the last week. hmm. Just a perk I guess!
Its great when your husband/partner gives you the thumbs up to your meal.
