I am not making this for dinner, but here's a recipe for Irene:

1/2 cup brown rice
1/2 cup quinoa (I like the multicolored the best)
1 cup chicken broth or stock
1 cup water
3 chopped baby carrots
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp turmeric--it's great for inflammation, like if you went to the dentist and your mouth is sore
1 tsp dried minced onion (optional)
sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste

The brown rice actually takes longer to cook than the quinoa so I generally cook the brown rice in the water and broth for about 10 minutes before adding anything else. I bring it to a boil and then turn it down to simmer and cover, then add the quinoa, carrots, garlic powder, and onion. Sometimes you might have to add a little more water or broth near the end; taste it to see if it's a little on the crunchy side and add more liquid (a few tablespoons) and continue to cook if so. Unlike most rice dishes, you can stir this one a little. I add the salt and pepper at the end. It's a recipe I came up with myself so you can tweak it a little to your own tastes. Sometimes I add a little chopped kale or spinach at the end for extra nutrition--I wait until the grains are cooked, turn the pan off, and throw in the kale and cover it for a few minutes before eating. It's a great side dish for a rotisserie chicken.

Tonight finishing up my homemade Cauliflower/Carrot soup adding sour creme and avocado.

French onion soup and Reuben sandwiches today. My sandwich will be excluding the corned beet, my husband will have his the standard way. Baby boy will eat some of mine.

Gluten free Pancakes, blueberries and sugar free syrup....I know I'm good!

Home made bean soup (made with home made chicken stock) with carrots, spinach and Italian sausage. It is more like a stew. Parmesan bread and red wine.

Spaghetti and zucchini boats

Making the above turmeric rice dish for my demo today using Turmeric Bone Broth Protein. It's always a smash hit. I even had little kids coming back for more the last few times I made it, and their parents were WOWED.

Having homemade veggie pizzas for dinner again since I will get enough protein from my BBP turmeric at lunch, LOL.

Leftover soup, French bread, cantaloupe.

Deli sandwich from my Boars Head shop today, cole slaw, leftover soup and a smoothie later on.

So do you mix a whole serving of the turmeric bone both protein or do you just use 1/2 tsp to replace the turmeric in the above recipe?

Breakfast for dinner tonight. My great aunt Betty's famous breakfast casserole... famous within our family at least.

Kimmiemae, I use a whole scoop of the turmeric BBP per cup of grains, sometimes more. Each scoop of BBP Turmeric has 750 mg of organic turmeric root so it works out perfectly. You can always use more or less of any ingredient to your own tastes anyway. It's a recipe I made up, and recipes are made for tweaking (unless you are baking, that rarely works out well in my world).

Lunch for dinner today. Having lunch at Uncle Julio's with a shopper buddy. Taking leftovers (probably enchiladas and charro beans) to hotel shop where dinner is not included, but I will have a fridge and stove.

Thanks!

Most people like sweet potato. I realize I am the weird one on this. It's fine, I'm allowed.

You cube the sweet potatoes and toss in maple syrup and some other things and roast them. It's a new to me recipe, not sure how they'll turn out.

Going to a free annual dinner with one of my insurance companies. Probably BBQ brisket, but it's always delicious.

Torchy's!
