I’ve definitely been in a rut with cooking for… well the last decade at least. This week, due to a variety of factors, I decided to just bite the bullet and cook four completely new meals for dinner, all of them relatively healthy (lots of vegetables, low fat and low calorie). They all turned out OK, to my relief. It was fun to use new ingredients I had never touched before though. I’d seem them in the produce section of the store for years, but had always passed them by.
New ingredients used:
- Poblano peppers
- Frozen unprocessed salmon fillets
- Tomato sauce completely from scratch (pureed fresh tomatoes and onions, etc.)
- Hatch chili peppers
- Ground Pasilla chili powder
- Frozen riced cauliflower
- Shiraki noodles
