Using Food You Grow to Add to Your Meals
This is a vegan meal (I will be using my rice cooker) but anyone is welcome to check it out and try it. Prep time was about 10 minutes, cook time was about 30-40 minutes.
Let's start out with the ingredients I used, I will show them in photos:
Jasmine rice will be part of our "base"
Lentils will also form part of the base
I'm also throwing in a handful of veggie rotini
Oriental Style Veggies (will use the sauce included)
Mrs. Dash Chicken No Salt Seasoning (no chicken, it's used to season chicken)
This is where my homestead comes in. I'm using one pad of home-grown prickly pear cactus.
Handful of Katuk Leaves
Chaya aka Tree Spinach! (Must be boiled)
Handful of Moringa Leaves
Last ingredient is the sauce. Comes with the frozen vegetables
Only ingredients are soy and wheat. Actually very tasty!
Here it is in rice cooker
Plate it!
Throw the Sauce on Top and Enjoy!
I love using this rice cooker because you literally throw everything into it with water, plug it in, and it does the rest! I got mine at Kohl's like 3-4 years ago for $20!! Still works perfectly. I consider it a great investment.
Do you have/use a rice cooker? Do you ever use your home grown plants in your recipes? I hope so! Thanks for stopping by Steemians!
One of my goals in life is to get as many people as I can to start growing their own food!

Wooo you gave an impressed idea! Food and health lover like me would like it definitely!
Glad to be of service lol! Enjoy!
That looks delicious, and obviously very healthy!
Thank you @rhino! Yeah it's pretty healthy!
Baby could you please answer your phone?
I haven't gotten any calls babe.
Looks delicious! I love to walk out into my garden and pick whatever is in season and put it in my food! Right now I am waiting for the strawberries to ripen, I hope that the slugs and birds don't get to them first...
Thank you! Yes, it's such a great feeling being able to do that! I hope they don't get them either! I would recommend netting, but for me that would be too much work lol Thank you so much for resteeming man. that helps me out so much!
The birds are actually manageable, it's the slugs that are killing me... Or rather I kill them at sight! 😈 An ordinary walk around my garden usually nets 20-30 of them, my record in 24h is over 1000...
Looks delicious! @jbcoin

You have a beautiful garden indeed. Thanks for detailing how you prepared this meal.
I love rice and can eat rice every day. If you are also a rice lover, there is a group of fellow steemians that have indicated they enjoy eating rice and we have a fun going on via https://steemit.com/food/@globalfoodbook/please-identify-yourself-if-you-are-a-rice-lover
