Fruits And Veggies Monday - Eating Good!

It is FRUITS & VEGGIES MONDAY initiated by the wonderful @lenasveganliving!

HOMEGROWN FUJI APPLES

These are homegrown Fuji apples from my sister's backyard, in California! They are delicious, sweet, and crunchy. Fuji and Gala apples are my favorite ones to snack on! They seem to keep longer too in the refrigerator.

CURRY MIXED POTATOES

My youngest like curry potatoes, so I made a batch with potatoes and sweet potatoes that have cut into bite size pieces. I put it on low heat, and cooked it in coconut milk, salt, pepper, and curry powder. I probably used about 2 teaspoons of curry powder or however much needed to coat the potatoes. When the potatoes are done, I topped with sliced green onions.

STIR FRIED CHINESE BROCCOLI

I love Chinese broccoli, but to buy them, I have to drive across town to the Asian market to get them. The price for them was three times higher than collar greens, or mustard greens or kale at my local store. Once in a while, we just have to indulge.

The process of cooking the Chinese broccoli is easy! Cleaned, steamed, and then stir fried them with chopped onion, garlic, salt and pepper.

HEALTHY COLE SLAW

Cut cabbage and carrot into thin enough strips, about 1/8 inches thick

Mix the cabbage and carrot well

Put them in a colander

Sprinkle salt on top, mix them up

Squeeze them between your hands until wilted but still have a crunchy taste

Sprinkle white vinegar all over the mixture

Work them a bit more

Give it a taste

If the mixture of salt and vinegar is perfectly to how you want, arrange them on a dish, drizzle a bit of olive oil on it to keep it from drying out, and top with mint leaves or green onion. If they are too salty or too sour, you can rinse them with cold water, and keep tasting them until you're pleased.
