Trader Joe’s Vegetable Kabobs with Peruvian Style Marinade and Rice

 

Lima, Peru is one of the most underrated cities in the world including the food. A yellow and gray pallor casts a spell over the city near the coastline. Visit if you can.

Back to more mundane matters, such as making a weeknight dinner. Vegetable kabob elements, the onions, the mushrooms, the peppers have different cooking times. You can disassemble them and cook them separately, but nah. There is another way - chopping them up and dressing them to roast in a delicious Peruvian style marinade on an olive oil coated pan.  Lime juice is best for this recipe, fine to use lemons.

·        1 Trader Joe's Vegetable Kabob package

·        Olive Oil

·    Ingredients for marinade for the vegetables: Soy Sauce, Lime Juice, Cayenne Pepper or Trader Joe’s Chile Lime Spice, Garlic Powder, Coconut Aminos if available

·    Rice or Rice Pilaf mix or rice of your choice

Trader Joe’s Vegetable Kabobs with Peruvian Style Marinade:
Chop the Vegetable Kabobs. Coase chop.
Prepare the Peruvian-style marinade.
To taste.
Get chef-y, add lime zest.
Place on an olive oil coated pan and mix with Salt and Pepper.  
Pour the marinade over the veg and mix again.
Roast at 350 degrees, for one half hour.  My oven is new, so it’s 345 degrees.
Once removed from oven, stir the vegetables.
Combine and serve with your favorite rice pilaf or rice mix.
Reuse the kabob sticks for a fruit dessert.
Or for roasted Salt & Pepper and Chile Lime Spice shrimp
The Vegetable Kabob tray is compostable.

My Trader Joe’s Half Day Juice Cleanse

Image
Hacked more expensive juice offerings and came up with this two-meal juice cleanse plan. I am not a nutritionist nor a qualified medical professional though skipping two meals probably wouldn’t be a big concern. (I realize that some people are advised to eat frequently.)   There will be no mention of the word *detox* in this blog post. I devised this half day cleanse to give my digestive tract a break, to take a break from post-pandemic cooking, which is tough, and to get more mindful about food consumption. With a total of 520 calories, this plan may possibly meet the caloric requirements for two meals. For a half day, that’s two meals, breakfast and lunch, one juice every two hours. 1 Cold Pressed Juice Green, 90 calories 1 Cold Pressed Juice Red, 110 calories 1 Banana & Almond Butter Protein Smoothie, 320 calories – for the home stretch Add a Suja Cold-Pressed Lemon Ginger Cayenne depending on your ambition. Followed up with a lighter than usual dinner.  A...

Embracing the Gray: How One Woman Found the Perfect Balance with Gray Blending - Now on Blogger

Image
The following is a post about gray blending developed though ChatGPT. There’s a reason I used ChatGPT for this post. Aesthetically, getting older has been a challenge. Some people look great with gray hair.   I would have kept the gray but, being a brunette, it was a gray that drained my coloring. A dull, difficult-to-work-with, unruly gray. When it was clear that I was no longer able to cover my grays with single-process coloring, at around 90% gray, I finally discovered gray blending though a hair stylist. It didn’t present itself to me as a solution naturally, it took me a while to find it. It took me a while to give up single-process coloring, a solution that worked as part of my adult life for a long time. It took me a while to grow out most of the remaining color. Getting the hair stripped of all color was a marathon of sitting in a salon chair. Not really my bag. Learning through ChatGPT, it seems that the gray blending option developed as a hair coloring technique over ...
