New Flavors

So, I'm figuring out that spice, flavors, and textures are essential elements of a plant-based cuisine. Hey, I'm new at this, so don't be a hater, lol.

I had some left over brown rice blend (not just your everyday bland brown rice) from last night. The blend is what makes it a really tasty base. Yum.

I added fresh green peas (I love peas, always have), chopped red pepper, and chopped fresh spinach.

I cooked the rice and peas in a fry pan with tamari sauce - it's like a stir fry, so put the heat up! Then I added the red pepper and spinach and topped it off with a new flavor - seasoned rice wine vinegar. I thought it would perk up the taste of the spinach - oh yeah!!

The red pepper was sweet and the spinach and rice vinegar are sour and the flavors all worked.
Yay me!

UPDATE: I have come through to the other side of the toxins. I feel really good! No more cold/flu symptoms and the lethargy has eased. I have a DR appointment next week to get blood work done - I want to check all my cholesterol levels, vitamins, etc. to see if I need Iron and B12.

Onward
