Grilled veggies

Last nights supper was grilled veggies and grilled pineapple on a bed of brown rice. Sorry no pictures.
What I did was take a few different veggies and cut them into large chunks. Threw them in a large gal ziploc bag. Mixed up Braggs Liquid Aminos, Low Sodium Soy Sauce, Honey and some O.J., and then pour that over the veggies. I let the veggies marinate all day. Flipping the bag every couple of hours.
The pineapple we just cut and grilled. Added a sweet taste to the veggies and rice.

Today I will be taking the left over veggies with some balsamic vinegar to put on my salad for lunch..
Yum Yum

Journey in Plant Based Diet

Our journey has begun into our Plant Based Diet.. I have to admit I am having a lot of fun. Here are some pictures from last nights meal.. Sweet Potato Lasagna courtesy of Forks Over Knives and Engine 2 Diet. Wasnt sure how hubby was going to enjoy this nor was I sure how I was going to enjoy.. Whoever heard of making a lasagna with no dairy and using ground walnuts on top.. But I was willing to try. It was amazing!
Getting ready for the oven
The addition if the ground cashews after 45 minutes
The final product
Look at those layers.



























































Needless to say this supper was a HUGE Success. One serving filled us all up. It was also enjoyable making it as the Monkey decided she wanted to get in on the action... She was a great help. Up tonight.. Veggie kabobs and fruit kabobs..
