Last night's dinner;

A huge raw cabbage salad (finished most of it), roasted potato, pumpkin and onion, caulie'ncarrot in a veggie stock sauce and steamed squash.

Caulie'nCarrot Recipe;

  • caulie, chopped into florets
  • carrots, sliced (scrub - do not peel)
  • onion, chopped
  • garlic clove
  • veggie stock
  • chick pea or wholewheat flour
  • himalayan rock salt and black pepper
  • olive oil

What to do;

  • sauté onions in olive oil until transluscent
  • add chopped garlic clove, caulie 'n carrots,veggie stock and simmer until veggies are still a little crunchy
  • sprinkle some flour over veggies and stir (this thickens the sauce)
  • Eat!

Today I am grateful for;

  • leggings - such useful 'in-between-season' fashion
  • Victorian Garden 7Herb green clay refining face mask
  • wind chimes
  • plaits
