What's for dinner?

[Fiona]

As a kid the water from stewed fruit was as close I ever got to drinking something other than water, I'm sure I was probably given veggie water too. I don't know how it works with the nutrients but at the end of day it will do you no harm surely. Well, aside from tasting gross.

Your last sentence was exactly what I was thinking.

 

[Columbo]

It wouldn't taste that gross would it?

I'm sure I won't mind the taste, especially if I convince myself that it is good for me.

It certainly wouldn't do you any harm. Gross may be a slightly strong word but it wouldn't be brilliant, would it?

I don't know... but I will report back to this thread once I have drunk that water... currently it is cooling down.

Hot might be better than cold?

Hmmm that is interesting.... Should I have a sip then?

Yep, its really good for you, think of it more as broth/soup than a "drink" per say

Ok good to know that it is good for me...

And I just tried it and it taste like pumpkin, I think tomorrow I won't cook any pumpkin and see how that water tastes.

I remember drinking potato water once for reasons unknown, I think someone told me it had some beauty benefit, let me tell you, THAT was gross. Never again.

PIE!

BUT IT'S VEGETARIAN!

VEGGIES ARE GOOD FOR YOU!

 

[Sweetgeek]

Dinner is made.

Well so is lunch now.

It's a carb kind of day.

 

[shaydee]

Last night I made pork steaks with zoodles and a sauce made with cherry tomatoes, garlic, spring onion & basil. Was delish!! Zoodles are my new favourite thing. Terrible lighting on the photos though...

 

[shaydee]

So I steam my veggies and the water in the pot always looks a bit green after, so I was wondering if I save the water and let it cool down then drink it, will I be drinking water full of nutrients?

Yes!!!! My Nan used to drink all the veggie water... then my Mum did it.. and now I do it. Well... not always but I will if it's cabbage water. I love cabbage & the water is yum!! If I don't drink it, I add it to a ziplock bag & freeze it to be used in soups etc.

 

[Columbo]

Yes cabbage is simply divine.
