Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

Kale and chickpeas, wild rice blend, and these vacuum sealed beets. Nooch all over kale, a drizzle of balsamic on beets. These beets are super good. I got them at Costco for a good price

Darn I've never seen those at my Costco. 😞
I tried the trader joe ones but I feel like they had a chemical/preservative taste and didn't like them much.

I got home quite late from town yesterday and wasn't in the mood to cook. I made a very quick meal of seasoned (Wicked, smoked paprika,onion powder) soya curls in the AF served with peas/cauliflower and a white cabbage slaw with Dijon vinaigrette/yeast flakes.

Apple puree with soya yogurt plus a huge swirl of soya cream.
 
it was Taco TFriday last night - smeat was made from Gardein ground with onions, jalapeno and spices added - pica made from green onions, cherry tomatoes, black olives, lime juice - chopped some spinach for greens on top - salsa - cheez shreds and there was leftover smeat so we scooped it up with some tortilla chips

They were in the aisle with canned beans, I was getting a case of 8 S&W, organic, low sodium chickpeas for $8.99. Chickpeas are the only bean I don't like cooking.
The beets were $6.99 for three 1 lb packs. Super good, I could eat them as they come. My produce market used to have great organic beets, with good greens, but they haven't been good for a while.

I've gotten so disappointed with Trader Joes. If it weren't for their soy beverage I would rarely bother--but they've got a monopoly on that!

I'm going to look for them next time I go!

The fresh beets never look good in my supermarkets. I'm always disappointed.

Maybe I'll drag my husband to Costco tomorrow. I could be sorry since it's two days before Christmas. I never go on a weekend because of the crowds and tomorrow could be worse. I'll have to think about it.

I like pickled beets and beets that I roast.

Last night my honey made a simple but delicious aglio y olio with lots of garlic, chili peppers, onion and whole kalamata olives. We also had 1/4 whole grain baguette cut into thin slices.

Beets are awesome!

I'm going to have some of the veggies from yesterday's vegan roast prep with seasoned soy curls and a baked potato
Soooo, I changed my mind and had some of the roast instead of the soy curls. I couldn't resist. :D
