eat some protein. you aren’t a cow
But you’re here watching….
Irony.
@Joshnelson, Seems like you are the bull, bully for sure….
A cup of chickpeas has about as much protein as a cup of chicken, if I’m reading it right
We’re great apes.
Plants contain all the protein we require.
Where do you think the cow gets the protein? Where do you think other great apes get protein?
does this look like cow food? cows eat grass.
I ate about 6-7 pounds of plain potatoes in one meal last night. My fasting glucose this morning was 88. The glycemic index clearly doesn’t matter. Is anyone here still worried about the glycemic index?
No, we are worried about micronutrients. Plain potatoes give you a very narrow list of nutrients. Where do you get the other nutrients from? For one or two meals it doesn’t matter, but you can’t eat plain potatoes forever and expect to thrive.
That looks so delicious!!! 😋😋😋
I’ll take a plate for now and one for later!!
now that’s a real meal 👌
Zero color on those venues. Learn to roast properly
Browning creates acrylamide which is a potential carcinogen, so it’s a tradeoff with longevity to skip oil and do it more steamed like this.
@Patrick Blouin does that mean that Kasha is bad? It tastes a lot better than regular buckwheat.
where you getting purple and yellow carrots from?
I really appreciate the recipes, but my problem with the How Not to Diet Cookbook is most of the recipes taste very similar because a couple of spice mixes are used in nearly everything. It’s very healthy but very monotonous if you were to base most of your cooking off of it. I have to use the book only occasionally to keep things interesting
Experiment and learn to use your own spice/herb mixes. For example, this dish would be equally nice with various spice/herb mixes: Indian, Mexican, Italian, Arab, etc. To get to the next level, you try different vegetables and legumes, and then pair them with your own choice of grains and fresh or sauteed leafy greens. So just this one dish has literally hundreds of variations. Then think of other types of dishes (stews, wraps, veggie burgers, pasta, etc) where you can vary the spices and veggies/legumes/grains, and you have tens of thousands of meals.
😮I will be making this recipe. Yum. Thanks
you don’t have to use oil, but at least have some fat in that meal..
I would cry if I had to eat that
