So I am off work. I have a little more free time than normal. So I decided to go grocery shopping and cook. I was quickly reminded why I don't cook that much. I don't mind cooking. I love cooking. I hate cleaning up. That is why I usually cook at my BF house. He cleans up (usually).
Today I made plantains, coconut rice, and spinach seasoned with thyme and garlic, salt and pepper. It was a simple meal but very tasty.
Today I made plantains, coconut rice, and spinach seasoned with thyme and garlic, salt and pepper. It was a simple meal but very tasty.
First I chopped half an onion, half a tomato, and one clove of garlic.
Next I sliced the plantain diagonally. This sticker was on it. I thought it was cute!
The onions and garlic were sauteed.
At this time I also started cooking the plantain. I used coconut oil and fried them over med heat.
Next I added tomatoes to the onions and garlic. I also added thyme, salt and pepper,and red pepper for spice.
I added the spinach. This is one of those pre washed spinach box thingys. It seems like a lot...
...but this is what it amounts too lol.
Lunch is served!
To make the coconut rice I just put a can of coconut milk in the rice cooker instead of water. The sweetness balanced out the spiciness of the spinach. I have eaten...Now I am ready for a nap. Till next time!
