Ok 2 posts in one day; but like I just said I have been experimenting! I know how good fermented foods are meant to be for us but had not tried many. I bought a jar of organic Kimchi & discovered a new taste experience! It is like a spicy version of something resembling sauerkraut but even better! I tried it added to wraps on top of a nutty veg burger and added to coleslaw... all delicious.
One thing I like to take to work is one bowl salads or as my friend Judy calls them 'kitchen sink salads'. Here is my latest version:
One Bowl Salad with Kimchi
1-2 forkfuls of kimchi, if it is long bits cut them into 2 or 3 pieces
a few thin slices of red cabbage cut crosswise, into small thin slices
2 radishes chopped
3 spring onions chopped
1 small carrot cut into very small bits
1/2 head Romaine lettuce sliced thinly
3 small tomatoes cut in 4
1 mini cucumber chopped or a 3" slice of large cucumber chopped
1/4 avocado cut into small bits
1 tablespoon sunflower seeds
1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
Add your favourite oil-free dressing when ready to eat.
This salad has lots of protien & essential oils in the seeds & so many nutients it will keep you satisfied. If you are sharing it & want to make it into a substantial meal add falafel or serve with a roasted portabello mushroom.
Enjoy
