Woohoo! House guests and then a diet. What more could I ask for? Actually, I love house guests and Fat Smashing isn't so bad either. Most of the recipes I will be using for Phase 1 come from the book Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker: 200 Recipes for Healthy and Hearty One-Pot Meals That Are Ready When You Are - a book that I love and would buy if I, you know, bought things. If I ever come across it used, it is so mine!
My brother, vegetarian SIL, and picky niece (5yo) will be here this weekend. I am forbidden from serving beans, because picky niece had a meltdown the last time, so when I saw Kris post Ellie Krieger’s Aromatic Noodles with Lime-Peanut Sauce and that Christine's daughter loved the mushroom barley soup I knew they would be the perfect guinea pigs.
As usual, all meal are served with a salad, fruit of my choice, and cut fresh vegetables.
