Still a vegetarian

Vegetarian pasta today. Made pennes with a walnut sauce I have been meaning to try. It was nice, but I would have enjoyed it more together with some prosciutto. It got boring before I got got full. Added some sun dried tomatoes to spice it up, and it helped. Anyway, here's how to make the sauce:

1. Roast 170 g of walnuts in a dry pan.
2. Use a mixer to make a paste out of the walnuts, a slice of bread, 1 & 1/2 decilitre of milk, 1/2 a crushed clove of garlic and 25 g of parmesan.
3. Add some olive oil, salt and pepper and mix again. Add some water from the pasta if the sauce is too thick. Top with chopped parsley. Done!

I've discovered a big plus in vegetarianism that nobody tells you about. It's very cheap! Super.

Veggie Weekend

Veggie stuff

I admit, I made one mistake. Had lunch out and ordered a sallad that had chicken in it. Yummy as it was I didn't remember my vow to eat only vegetarian food this week, until it was already gone. But it won't happen again! Above is last nights dinner. Potato and onion soup, bruschetta and sallad.

I love this soup. It's the easiest thing to make, really tasty, healthy and cheap. Here's how I make it:

1. Chop yellow onion (1) and leek (4) and fry them in butter in a big pot.
2. Peel potatoes (1 kilo) and throw them in the pot together with water, a bouillon cube, salt and pepper.
3. Boil until the potatoes fall apart, mix with a hand blender and add some cream. Done!
