| beef stir fry with white rice |
 |
| steamed okra, brussels sprouts, butternut squash |
I thought you might like to see what I've been cooking and eating lately. The first photo has my stir fried beef with white rice, I will often buy the stir fry beef strips pre-cut when they are 30% off at the grocery store and make them the same day.
The second photo represents 3 servings of vegetables for me that day. I cut the ends off the tips of the okra and steam them for 7 minutes and they are just perfect. The sweetness of the butternut squash goes well with any of the greens. The brussels sprouts are a work in progress. These were steamed but I think I will blanche them the next time as I prefer them to be more tender without being overcooked. The butternut squash was microwaved. I season all the vegetables with olive oil, salt, pepper and oregano or basil.
Both meals look delicious. Hugs, Valerie

ReplyDeleteI have tried that awhile back, just wanted to try them another way, thanks.

ReplyDeleteWell, Christine, you have me drooling. I've never had steamed ocra. Being the product of parents from Oklahoma, we always coated it with flour or cornmeal and fried it. I love butternut squash and I like to roast my brussel sprouts, and I see Kathy G does too.
ReplyDeleteHappy Cooking & Eating 🎃
