Being memorial day, everyone fires up the grill and makes a whole lot of different variations of meat...
I had to bring my own vegetarian options to the table for 3 days...they had to be filling so husband would be satisfied and I wanted others to enjoy them too. (hoping to persuade them of the benefits of a plant based diet, *i think it kind of worked)
So on the menu was:
Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms-
Baby Bellas- with the stem and inside scraped out
Diced fresh tomatoes
Chopped fresh basil
Added some olive oil and mixed the tomatoes and basil together
Added some goat milk feta (which was amazing)
Sprinkle with some himalayan salt, and garlic
Pack into the mushrooms and top with a little bit of fresh mozerella cheese
And put on the grill- simple and very impressive!
Sunday was a little easier- I made my rendition of a "warm salad" - my mom saw the pic on my instagram earlier in the week and decided we had to make it! So that was easy and very delicious.

For dessert- Grilled figs so wished I had rice milk ice cream for this one, but that was a lot of work for a big party! So I enjoyed this one with a little cheat for the day (ice cream) but oh my goodness with the balsamic it was pretty amazing!
They were a little crumbly but still so good! I am going to have to play around with this recipe a little more.
Dessert was GF Rhubarb Crisp

I am loving my new lifestyle and the challenges it presents!
