If I havent made this clear yet - I really am not a cook. But this afternoon I started going through our cabinets and found a lot of expired food. It was pretty upsetting to throw away food. I became determined to cook whatever was left. - Chad was forewarned before he came home - I had cereal ready for the girls. I got some inspiration from a recipe a friend had shared, but as usual didnt have everything it required but this is what I did:- One can of organic lentils (I am trying to use all my canned food, still dont feel safe using cans)
- Stewed tomatoes
- 1 TB each of coriander and cumin
- Juice of one lemon
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Roasted red peppers
- And rice - let it stew for awhile then served to the girls
Results - one girl spit it into trash, the other took a respectful bite, Chad said he couldnt re-heat his to his liking (remember no microwave) and I ate my whole bowl. So, I wouldnt say success, but at least I experimented.
