whats for dinner.

Dinner post-

last night I got a little creative with some healthy influence from my dad! Grilled lettuce- yes you heard me right grilled.

All you do is take the lettuce leaf, rub EVOO on both sides season with whatever you want- and place on the grill for about 3 mins. It will get wilty and crunchy and ohh so good!! I seriously never knew lettuce could taste so wonderful!
Then i sauteed up some onions and red peppers, seasoned those with garlic, a little cayenne (my fave) and some nutritional yeast.

We were also trying some sun dried tomato tofu dumplings I bought.

It all went together perfectly-  I found that the dumpling tasted really rummy rolled up with the lettuce and peppers!

Nothing for Dinner

So this past week we have need to go grocery shopping and for some reason never went... i know i know we were being LAZY!

Well so last night after going out to dinner for 3 nights in a row! I decided to collect what I had to work with and see what I could come up with...

It was a little daunting- this is my ingredients: Cauliflower, Kale, Diced tomatoes, Fresh Mozzarella and mushrooms (left over from the other night). Umm lets see Asparagus...

Steamed the Cauliflower
Sauteed the Mushrooms
Mixed Diced Tomatoes, Nutritional Yeast, Cumin, Garlic, Fresh Cloves, Fresh Basil, little dash of Cayenne- then added the mushrooms after they were finished with some chopped up Kale
Sauteed the Asparagus and a little bit of Cauliflower

Put the cauliflower on the bottom, added sauce, added a piece of mozzarella, topped with asparagus and more cauliflower!

It was very good, and very filling! I was pretty happy and can't wait to make it again! :)
