Here we go

First of all a warning. Yes, you who´s not vegan or vegetarian may be inspired to actually make some of the recepies or gain inspiration by what I will present here, and belive it or not, it´s perfectly ok. My wish is to kill the idea that vegans are angry, starved and extreme. Well, ok, we might be a bit angry, a tad starved and might sometimes get extreme in one way or another, but that's not because of what we eat (or what we don't eat). It's actually just human nature that shows from time to time.

So, come and walk with me for a while! You could start with this, not the best photo, but just as an appetizer




On the big plate there's a cold salad made of butterbeans, cherry tomatoes, avocado, springleek, bellpepper and avocado. Chop into quite big pieces (too small and everything just turns mushy) and mix with a nice olive oil, balsamico, salt and pepper. If you don't have a grinder for the pepper, get it. Now. I'm serious. You'll be suprised how much flavor the pepper actually has, when it's not dried up in an old jar somewhere...

In the background there's a plate with asparagus and zuccini which was quickly fried in a pan with canola oil (the best oil to use in a frying pan) and some salt. Fried for what? About 4-5 minutes or so. It's nice when you have to use your teeth now and then.

What's hardly noticeable in the picture is the plate with roasted root crops. We had potato, parsnip and carrots all cut in sections and sprinkled with olive oil, salt and pepper (again, the grinder! See! Used twice already!) Left in the oven for about 40 minutes, a degree around 200 Celsius. Shovel around a couple of times so everything will be cooked even.

Yeah, that's right. I won't mention the olives in the front.

Enjoy!
