Pumpkin Curry Vegetable Stew

I love fall for all the squashes. Today we bought pumpkins, acorn squash and butternut squash.

I was trying to think of what I should make tonight. The weather was nice today. Kinda chilly. I was thinking soup but I found this recipe for a stew and I said 'sure why not'

1 cooking pumpkin

1 carrot

2 tomatoes

1onion

1plantain

2 cloves of garlic

3 white potatoes

2 tbs oil

2 tbs curry

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground ginger (I know I have raw ginger in the pic but the recipe called for ground)

1 scotch bonnet

1 1/2c water

Salt and pepper to taste

I chop everything before starting. That's just me. Chopping calms me. I love it.

In the pot put the oil onion and garlic until translucent. Then add the tomatoes w the spices. It will look like a paste because the tomatoes sweat. Mix well. It forms like a nice paste. Add the pumpkin, potatoes, plantain and carrot and coat the veggies. Add 1 1/2c of water. Bring to boil then simmer w a lid on.

Simmer till the veggies are fork tender. Usually 35-40 minutes.

Look how amazing that is. It's so good.

21 Day Sugar Detox

Monday after Super Bowl some friends and I started this detox. I was nervous, excited, anxious and scared. I didn't know what to expect. It went well. I are a lot like this. No sugar meant no bread or processed foods. I lost 9lbs. It felt good. It did change my way of thinking about sweets. I don't crave them. I guess that was the point lol. I'm glad it's over but I've been following the diet for the most part.

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.

First shelf: almond milk, black berries, cilantro, cherries, yogurt (his) apple sauce that my momma brought over for Angie's kids. I need to give that to her. And BEER!!! Bobby gave it to Pokey Second shelf: Salad stuff. Spinach, spring mix, feta cheese, avocado and tomatoes Third shelf: Green grapes, mushrooms and corn. HEB 5 for $1 Fourth shelf: Eggplant (Pokey's) red grapes, watermelon and cauliflower. Pickled jalapeño. Pokeys choice.
