Is your fridge a garden or a morgue?

Pokey and I love to grocery shop. It's what we do lol. I really love that he is cool w the fact that I'm not eating meat and don't care for it in the house. I feel it take up space and why do that when I can put veggies in its place!

Second shelf: Salad stuff. Spinach, spring mix, feta cheese, avocado and tomatoes

Third shelf: Green grapes, mushrooms and corn. HEB 5 for $1

Jackfruit "beef" Stew

SATURDAY WITH MY PARENTS! Pokey went fishing and I went grocery shopping. I love to hang out with my family. I love them with my entire heart. I called my mom and asked her if she wanted to join me while I picked up a few things from the store. Of course, she said yes. When I get to my parents she says my dad wants tacos from Cristobal. I'm down because they really have great tacos. I got beans and nopales (cactus) Look how cute my parents are. 43 years in February. I love that they show love to each other. We ended up going to HEB and I didn't grab much but I got some acorn squash and some okra. It was a cold Saturday and I know him being on the water plus the wind I know he would appreciate a warm meal when he came home. My mom in law bought us a Ninja Foodi and I have been intimidated by it for almost a year. This is probably the 4th time I have used it. I had one of those meal cheaters, it was beef stew one where you add meat and some veggies. I added ...

Movie Night:Hungry for Change

Last night we watched Hungry for Change. I love docs. I love docs about food! For me it helps me keep on track with what I'm doing as far as food. Sometimes I think I miss meat but I really don't. I try my hardest not to have processed food in our house. I'm glad Pokey (Husband) is on board. He will eat what ever I make. Last night I wanted Italian. I made some "pasta" I used yam noodles. So good. So lo in carbs it's great. I used bell pepper, mushrooms, onions, garlic and Italian spices. For our personal pizzas I used whole wheat high fiber lo carb tortillas. I love thin crust pizza so for my it was a no brainer. I loaded them w the same veggies I used for my sauce. I used "meatless" pepperoni and dairy free cheese. They were delish!!!

Gnocchi and Sauce

Let me start by saying I just wanted peppers and onions and wants a taco. Pokey comes in the kitchen and wanted gnocchi. (Gross) I just can't get behind eating a ball of dough. We really debated in the store behind it. I did not want him to buy it. However I let him slide because it was whole wheat and not enriched. Anywho... 1 bell pepper 1 poblano 1 onion 1 case of mushrooms 3 small yellow an orange peppers. When he said he wanted gnocchi I added 3 tomatoes and Italian seasoning and garlic (1tsp) When I turned around to text w my sister in law he added... Champagne and Cavendar's Greek seasoning. He threw in a little balsamic vinegar. I didn't fight him. He knows what he wants. I was no longer getting my tacos "/ Notice the pic above w veggies in a bowl? I kept those on the side while I put the veggies in the pan in the blender then added the remainder veggies back into the pan then simmered everything together. Now I added a little bit of olive oil and tomato ...
