Today's Sustainable Feast in the Garden of Eden
It is a wonderful day in the Garden of Eden, and we are giving thanks for more than enough of everything in this abundant life of freedom!
We made a delicious feast for our full time volunteers on our indoor wood burning stove rather than on the rocket stoves of our sustainable outdoor kitchen. We stayed nice and toasty, had a fantastic meal, AND heated water for showers for super sustainable efficiency. As usual, there was more than enough food for everyone, and we are happy to share our abundance with you!
We made soup and salad feast today!
We started our delightful meal with our daily fresh, raw garden salad. We topped a bright bed of spinach with grated carrots, cucumbers, and peppers, and everyone could dress their salad from our bar of homemade vinegars, oils, dressings, and toppings.
We made a big pot of chicken soup! This has lots of onions, garlic, carrots, celery, yellow squash, zucchini, and herbs for plenty of vitamins and minerals. The broth is super rich and nutritious because we boiled a whole chicken in it! Bone broth is one of the most healthful foods their is. This was a perfect meal today because some of us feel our immune systems running down a little; chicken soup is classic comfort food when you feel under the weather, and it has lots of nutrition and hydration power!
When we make chicken soup, we prepare noodles on the side so everyone can add as much or as little as they want! Plus, the noodles don't get soggy and overcooked when we serve them on the side. We like to make it with spaghetti because #1 we have lots of spaghetti noodles, and #2 they are super fun to slurp up.
We made our table's staple chimichurri sauce, a combination of fresh chopped herbs from the garden, garlic, and some salt in pure olive oil. This adds fantastic flavor to anything it is drizzled on, plus plenty of potent antimicrobial action.
We also offered a dish of chopped green onions right out of the garden for everyone's garnishing delight.
It was a fantastic meal that our @noki-power specifically requested, and she enjoyed it with her friend @lelumunchies and sister @qiqi-power!
It was another beautiful spread shared in love, gratitude, and good company with lots of delicious, sustainable food for everyone! Thank you for sharing our feast today 🖤

Cheers.
Hahaha, enjoy making it!
Nice food, I like it this food cooking.
I appreciate your busy....
Thank you
Excellent today opted for the sensational soup, soup is one of my favorite dishes and more if it is meat or chicken like the one shown today. That soup looks exquisite with all those vegetables on top plus the noodles is also a favorite way to eat soup with noodles or rice. This salad looks super colorful and very healthy, since spinach and carrots provide many nutrients for our body, it is perfect as an entrance to later taste the other two fantastic dishes. Today again they were in the garden of Eden.
Soup is one of our favorite dishes too! They are so easy to make for a crowd and often get tastier as they sit longer.
