In a doubling of efforts to eat healthier, I am now preparing 6-7 vegetables as side dishes at the dinner table. The goal is to have a colorful plate, but at the very least to provide more choices for the kids. After dinner I had the kids pack Dad’s bento box compartments. So tonight we had
radishes dipped in thousand-island dressing (the simplified version: vegan mayo+ketchup+sweet pickle relish; my fancy version = the aforementioned+mustard+minced capers+minced onion+minced green olive+minced pimiento+chili sauce)
roasted peppers bathed in olive oil, sprinkled with a pinch of salt and a pinch of sugar
frozen corn
roasted acorn squash
and, what Migi has named,
“Eddie-Mommy”. (edamame)
It has quite a nice ring to it, don’t you think?
Ha ha ha… so cute!
You are one very creative mom, Stef! A JOYFUL EASTER SEASON TO YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL FAMILY!
Love,
Easter:-)
