Update

August 5, 2008

So things continue to go well. I am mostly meat free however I do find myself opting for quick veggie foods more than I would like – like frozen things I just have to heat up. It could be a result of the heat or it could just be me searching for easy comfort food things and not having enough of a veggie repertoire yet. I anticipate this will change.

My potato soup proved very popular here and I only got 2 servings so I think I will make some more today. Here is the recipe in case anyone is interested:

3 large onions

10 potatos peeled (I used red)

some butter

a litre of light cream or so

Cook the onions in the butter until they are translucent. Add the potatos and enough water to cover them. Boil until the potatos are very soft. If you have too much water, pour some off, add the cream and heat.

That is it, very easy and delicious!

In other news, my IBS seems to have calmed down. Not sure what that is about but I will take it where I can get it!! LOL

frustration

August 1, 2008

Ok, I am getting frustrated. I am having trouble finding stuff I want to eat. I am not craving meat sothat is good. But I am also not craving other stuff that would be good too. I feel like I am in no-woman’s land as far as it comes to food these days. I look in recipe books and nothing inspires me. I want comfort food but I don’t know what that is anymore. Maybe I will make potato soup with lots of onions tomorrow. Maybe that will work.

If you have any ideas for veggie comfort food please let me know.
