favorite veg recipe
I like to combine wax beans, green beans, carrots (and sometimes this combination can be found in the frozen section of the grocery), and add one large onion to it while it cooks. I especially like to use this for holidays - can take 2 cups of it, and simplify the measuring for the veg. I have 2 cups raw veg at lunch time on those days along with my protein.




Re: favorite veg recipe

this is great! Are chick peas ok?




Re: favorite veg recipe

The stuff in this recipe are all veggies. 1 cup of chick peas = 1 protein (as do all beans and legumes). You could use 1 cup of the above for a cooked veggie and then add the 1 cup of chick peas for your protein. Plus one cup of raw veggie (and plus 1 grain or starchy veggie at dinner) and 1/2 a fat would equal a complete meal.

How I do for beets !

I like to dice them very fine, then add Italian seasoning (the kind with no salt, just herbs). This is a simple thing, but I think the taste of them together raw is appealing.

Soy Beans

Soak dry soybeans in water overnight or for at least 8 hours.

Drain them, measure into appropriate serving size (1 c = 4 oz
protein, so 1.5 c = 6 oz for men/others on maintenance) and
refrigerate or freeze.

When ready to use, boil in salted water for 5 minutes, drain, and
then sprinkle sea salt on top. Others sometimes use other spices, I
have not. The waxy shells often come to the top when
cooking/draining; I usually scrape off what I can and eat the rest.
