Week 26 - Mint and Almond Pesto

I love my wife, and it's great she wants to join in with my vegetarian journey.  She helped out by making this dish, but there's no nice way of dressing this up, this dish was a stinker.  This post will also be a great way of checking if she ever reads my blog!

The dish was bland and oily and sadly had no redeeming features.  It was 'bad' it was just there was nothing good about it.  Sorry dear.

OK, one redeeming feature; it looks OK

Week 25 - Chickpea, Spinach and Tomato Curry

It's a curry.  It has chickpeas in it.  It was delicious.  Nuff said.

Week 24 - Spinach Cannelloni

Spinach, two weeks in a row!?!? I hear you cry.  Well yes, deal with it.

I have to admit this dish is pretty similar to the last (i.e. spinach and pasta), but the taste was very different.  The downfall of this dish will be the effort involved in stuffing the tubes, it was a pain.

Still, you should make it and try it.  Spinach gives you big muscles (that you'll need for stuffing Cannelloni tubes!



You never saw Popeye eat this!
