Vegetable Detox

I think J and I are both in the mood to eat mostly vegetables for at least a week.

I also thought I'd mention $2 bags of pork and beef bones, found at most Asian markets. I can usually make a gallon of good hearty stock with it, which is so much cheaper and tastier than canned stock. Today, I picked off what little meat was on the bones and added pinto beans, a can of tomatoes, potatoes, celery, carrots, parsley, marjoram, salt, and pepper. A perfectly hearty dinner when paired with some leftover onion bread, but still healthy and refreshing after a week of overeating.

The little wooden pot is a present from my sisters. I have one for sugar and one for salt. I love kitchen gifts; thanks, gals!

  • It's a good idea to get the $2 bones - I made Vietnamese pho the other day using oxtail, but it would've tasted richer if I had added some beef bones... -- C
