- Gradually add liquid
- Add garlic
- Add greens and tomatoes

The produce shown above came from my garden. It’s all organic produce. I don’t use a lot of spices with my meals. I’ve found over time eating a whole food/high raw diet that I can pick up more of the natural flavors that are present in the vegetables that I prepare.
The greens are added within the last few minutes of cooking time. I much prefer the lightly steamed. The majority of the vegetables come from my own garden. They are picked within minutes of me making my meals. The produce is bursting with flavor.
The beans were cooked earlier in the day. How long did this meal take to make? Using the cooked beans this meal was ready in under 10 minutes.

Hello Opal. I’ve always wanted to the do a raw food diet of some sort, except that buying quality vegetables are so expensive in my neighborhood. One of these days, I’m going to start planting …..
The tomatoes look fantastic, and I bet they taste better than store bought.
Sounds great! thanks for the idea!!! I hope to try this soon!
Home-grown produce is the way to go. Vine-ripe tomatoes are literally vine-ripe. It’s fun because my kids will pick them and eat right there in the garden. Nothing like a freshly picked tomato, warm from the sun.
Sharon,
You should start planting. There are a lot of plants that are easy to maintain.
Harmonia,
You should! Please let me know how it turns out.
pete,
I agree. I love home grown produce. We do the same with our vegetables/fruit. We eat them right off the vine.
As soon as hubby and I get ourselves a house with a garden, that’s next on my list…..
Opal, I’m not sure if you are a big fan of eggplants, but do you have a recipe you like? My husband just loves it.
I love garbanzo beans, but have never had a recipe that did them justice. I will give this one a try and let you know how it turns out. Thanks for sharing.
