Mixed Vegetable Curry & A Not-So-Awesome RAW Spinach Tomato Soup

Thursday Night I was preparing my lunch for the following day and decided Vegetable Curry sounded good.  I used Frozen Veggies PLUS an Onion as the main 'brunt' of it.  The Mixed Veggies were Broccoli, Cauliflower, Carrots, Peas, and Beans.  I added 4 small tomatoes to this, too!  I also added 1/2 tea of each of the following...Garlic Powder, Turmeric Powder, Cayenne, Cinnamon, Ginger Powder, and a little Jalapeno Powder because I didn't have Curry.  Towards the end I added about a tablespoon of shredded coconut and a teaspoon of Organic Sugar (Vegan) from Wholesome Sweeteners.  I added water as needed while cooking.  It turned out really good with some heat but also a tad of sweetness, too!  I'm still craving some Dal, tho, so I might be making some of that soon!

Earlier in the week I made this Raw Soup.  It's mostly made of Spinach, Tomato, and spices...but it needs some work!  It looks good but I wasn't completely excited about it.  I did have 1 bowl but I am certainly going to tweak it before posting.

I'm still trying to catch up from being away for a few days.  I think I'm almost there!  Might have one or two more smaller posts to post from last week.  PLUS...tomorrow starts a new week...with more kitchen adventures!

  2. The curry looks delicious!
    Not a fan of raw tomato so I don't think I'd be keen on the soup, though if it was cooked then I'd be so keen lol!

  4. Hi Jennifer,
    You inspired me! I made a similar vegetable curry several times this week--varying the vegetables based upon what I had available. Mostly brocolli, brocolli rabe, kale, onion, carrots, bok choy, lentils, brown rice, seaweed, turmeric, cayenne, red pepper flakes, Bragg's Liquid Aminos and Nutritional Yeast. Sometimes I make a broth from the steamed vegetable water and turn it into a large curried veggie soup! Yum! Thanks for sharing this delciousness at the Healthy, Happy, Green and Natural Party Hop!

  5. The mixed veggie curry looks delicious! And yea... sometimes we less than stellar creations in the kitchen. I figure that just makes us appreciate the completely stellar ones that much more =)
