Veggies

25 Sep 2008

Last night I was quite proud of myself for managing to put together an absolutely delicious meal and I thought I’d share the recipe because it was so simple.

First I sauted broccoli (which had already been cooked in the microwave for two and a half minutes so it wasn’t raw), snap peas and onions in olive oil, garlic, fresh grated ginger, red pepper flakes and soy sauce. Meanwhile I brought another pot of water to a boil and started cooking egg noodles.

Next, I combined the noodles and veggies to sit together over a very low heat for a few more minutes. I didn’t have a wok pan but if you did, I suppose this is where you would use it.

After a ridiculously short amount of time I have a very flavourful and surprisingly filling (for being vegetarian) dinner. I’ve got plenty of ginger and some left over snap peas… I might have to try this one again tonight.

I think it’ll be even better when I add some meat as well.

Share and Enjoy:

Hi Meaghan,
Your dish looks yummy. I’ll have to try making it for my family. Thanks for commenting about my CD photos. I must love grudge work (he,he)…. it gives me a little control on what photos I save and don’t miss saving. But if you ever find out the service your Mom used please let me know. I’m sure I’ll have more photos in the future.

p.s. I found another blogger on Martha’s site that uses Stumbled Upon. Her blog is simplemom.net Have a great day!

Your ‘meat’ could be some nuts – perhaps pinenuts in this dish – or mixed seeds added to your general mix. Cheaper than meat and just as nutritious!

you should get a big jar of flaxseed and add them whenever you make stuff like this. theyre good! and they have something special, i think. omega-3?

@Rochelle
I’ll see if I can track down the name of the company and I’ll check out that other blog. Looks good!

@kang
Thanks again for stopping by

@Rosemary
Nuts are a good idea. I would have really liked some peanuts for the dish actually. Mostly I was lazy and didn’t want to go the store and everything in the fridge was pure veggie

@Kelly
Flakseed?! When did my sister become such a hippie??
