What was the last thing you ate/drank? version Healthy Living

[LivingInTheMoment]

mariacallas, that pasta looks yum!

Lunch! The rice is black rice (together with some rice, because the texture can be a bit too much), which turns purple when you cook.

Below is a vegetable stew made with garden stuff. The liquid was made from rice washing liquid (an organic farmer told me they do this down south), and combined with reduced mushroom stock. In it are lots of garlic and onions, small eggplants, okra, snake beans, lupo leaves, and carrots (I don't grow carrots though, just found those in the refrigerator).

On the right is some milkfish (my dad's food) baked on banana leaves with some tomato, lemongrass, leeks, garlic, and onions. Some soy sauce, sesame oil, and chopped Vietnamese coriander on top.

Yah, but yours looks much healthier! I like the black rice too!:D

Had some almonds and various teas!

Yummy....my aunt came bearing gifts of smoked salmon today, so for for lunch I made a salad with some fantastic smoked salmon, various greens , cherry tomatoes, shaved parmesan, lemon and cilantro, and our favorite creamy caesar dressing from a local store.

I can eat smoked salmon or salmon sashimi allllll day and never get sick of it...

That looks good, mariacallas!

Made lunch

May look the same as the last one, but this one was broccoli cooked in the juice of oyster mushroom, onions, tomatoes, garlic, and sambong (a local plant with similar flavor to sage) and then the ground mushroom (from which I took the juice) was also cooked with soy sauce and pepper and mixed in.

I also mixed in two other kinds of mushrooms from the garden. One is called "tenga ng daga" or rat's ear (that's what it looks like) the other has no English word. Last thing in was the tender ends of the squash vine, as well as some little okra.

It was quite flavorful. mushrooms

Beside is a steamed milkfish (again) for my pa with a tree leaf with no English word.
