Going into the weekend I had all my meals ready to go. Starting with Thursday night, I made a typical hippie bowl. If I had to choose a combination of ingredients to eat forevermore it would probably be these: quinoa, carrots, corn, seitan, avocado I recently got a question about the ratio of grain to veg to protein in my “hippie bowl” type meals. In all honesty, I don’t consciously compose them with a specific ratio in mind, but if I had to guess I’d say it is pretty much 1:1:1. Sometimes… Read more >

Kyle and I made a resolution this year to sit down to a real dinner together every Sunday night. It may be hard on the weekends that I work, but we will do our best. Family dinner #1 – roasted broccoli, quinoa and barley, Field Roast smoked tomato loaf. I put 1 cup dry quinoa and 1 cup dry barley in the rice cooker before we headed out to play tennis together. I left it on the “keep warm” setting until it was time for dinner. Then I fluffed it up before serving. The… Read more >
