That's an electric burner, a big pot, a wooden spoon (not shown), 2 containers of go-go brown rice, a can of tomatoes, a can of beans, and 3 lbs of veggies. It's not exactly the ratios Novick recommends but it's what I thought would work well for 2 day's worth of food. I thought the 3rd lb of veggies wasn't going to make it in the pot, but it was greens and they cook down nicely. Just mix and heat.
Here it is dished out into 4 big containers for myself and a small one for travel companion. I added different spices to each one: curry, italian, creole, and Mexican. how fun is that?
Then I made a couple of salads. I also baked a couple of potatoes in the microwave. And prepped some oatmeal and banana and almond milk and cinnamon and for fun, fenugreek. fenugreek smells like maple syrup. so if that works, it's a healthy way to get that flavor with no added sweetener besides the banana. It's soaking overnight in the fridge, so it will only take a couple of minutes to cook up in the microwave in the morning.
I found a great salad dressing at Whole Foods today (my last stop there for a few weeks--now I wish I had gotten more!). This has no oil or sugar. It has 40 mg of sodium per 2 T. That's acceptable to me. This is so convenient!
Now I'm ready for some mountain biking tomorrow!
