Hello everyone, hope you have a wonderful midweek so far! ๐Ÿค—

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. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘

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. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

As always, be inspired, be joyful, take a picture and Enjoy it! ๐Ÿ˜‹โค๏ธ

Thank you very much H. for saying that about my food! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™

My parents shared lots of pomegranates from their friendโ€™s tree and I love to incorporate with our usual vegan dishes. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

Hope you enjoy your day with lovely meals also.๐Ÿค—

Thank you ๐Ÿ˜Š 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.

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? ๐Ÿ˜Š

P.S. I saw your replies and I know you are a great cook ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

Iโ€™m not a great cook, but thank you for saying that. Iโ€™ve eaten pomegranates many times but Iโ€™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 ๐Ÿ˜Š

That looks awesome! Full of delicious healthful veggies, and enticing to the eye, and Iโ€™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! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™

I love how vegan diet inspires all of us to eat healthy and creating our meals with the blessing of Mother Nature. ๐Ÿค— Iโ€™m very into holistic ways of life and always want to live accordingly. Iโ€™m on gluten free restriction so that is a brilliant idea you have to write a book about these. ๐Ÿ˜

Enjoy the rest of your day with healthy and wonderful meals you have always I am sure. ๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ‘

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

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. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘
