Hello everyone, hope you have a wonderful midweek so far! πŸ€—

Today I made coconut milk infused purple rice with a mixture of shiitake mushrooms, bell peppers, baby tomatoes, red onions and garnished with plenty of pomegranate seeds. Everything is seasoned beautifully with variety of herbs as usual. πŸ˜‹πŸ‘

I got today meal cooked so I can later on move to prep my batch of gluten-free Vegan Mooncakes to gift to all my friends and family this weekend. Everything in this cake needs details and precision as well as designs for presentation. πŸ˜πŸ‘

As always, be inspired, be joyful, take a picture and Enjoy it! πŸ˜‹β€οΈ

Thank you very much H. for saying that about my food! πŸ˜ŠπŸ™

My parents shared lots of pomegranates from their friend’s tree and I love to incorporate with our usual vegan dishes. πŸ˜πŸ‘

Hope you enjoy your day with lovely meals also.πŸ€—

Thank you 😊 I can only imagine how sweet pomegranates picked from the tree must be. Anything eaten soon after being picked has so much more flavour and sweetness.

β€’ in reply toHungryHufflepuff

You are absolutely right, these fresh seeds bring out the natural sweetness, very flavorful additional to veggies dishes. Have you cooked anything with pomegranate seeds so far? 😊

P.S. I saw your replies and I know you are a great cook πŸ˜πŸ‘

I’m not a great cook, but thank you for saying that. I’ve eaten pomegranates many times but I’ve never cooked with them. Maybe I should look for some recipe ideas and try to use the seeds in my cooking. Thank you for the inspiration 😊

That looks awesome! Full of delicious healthful veggies, and enticing to the eye, and I’m sure even better to eat!You should write a book with all these recipes in.

Thank you Nessie87 for saying that about my meals, you are too kind! πŸ˜ŠπŸ™

I love how vegan diet inspires all of us to eat healthy and creating our meals with the blessing of Mother Nature. πŸ€— I’m very into holistic ways of life and always want to live accordingly. I’m on gluten free restriction so that is a brilliant idea you have to write a book about these. 😁

Enjoy the rest of your day with healthy and wonderful meals you have always I am sure. πŸ˜‡πŸ‘

I asked them at the lido to put a lane in for us who wanted to do serious swimming and they did as well!

β€’ in reply to

Oh wow they are so nice. You remind me of Youth Club in high school as I chose swimming my PE. I am glad the weather is great for you to swim and hang out. πŸ˜πŸ‘
