For low carb, potato like veggies, may I also suggest rutabaga and turnip. I also love cauliflower.
It is 11 pm and I just started the beef stew in the instapot, but it should only take 30 minutes. It has turnip, rutabaga, onion and celery along with the beef. But my non diagnosed ADHD has lost the pepper/has no pepper so I added red chili pepper flakes.
I was going to enthuse about roasted cauliflower (summary: SO GOOD), but then Tim made blueberry pancakes for dinner because I was stressed and sad, and I gotta say, blueberry pancakes are pretty fucking awesome.
Blueberry pancakes are, indeed, pretty fucking awesome.
Banh mi today (this is your fault, Hec)
I take full responsibility. I actually tried to make my dinner sandwich somewhat banh mi...ish. I only partly succeeded but it wasn't a failure either. (My instincts weren't bad but I think I know how I could correct on at least two fronts. All hail Salt Fat Acid Heat.)
I used to make vegan Shepard's Pie for JZ all the time. The meaty part was soy crumbles sauteed with mushrooms, with mashed potatoes on top.
I only have the tedious little bits to address before our trip to Japan but they're the kind of things I avoid until I wake up at 3am the night before and realize I need to address them or we're fucked. So...probably tomorrow.
We are leaving on January 22nd which is pretty fucking soon.
That is soon! Get cracking on those tedious bits before they swamp you
