One of my favorite things to do is be in the kitchen. I can pretty much cook anything without a recipe. When I walk into a grocery store, (especially a health food store) I go straight to the produce section. I only buy organic, because sadly, all of the other produce is either GMO or full of pesticides. It's really hard on my brain to go out to eat any more. Every time I sit down at a restaurant my mind doesn't stop thinking about how un-healthy everything is. I wish I could flip the switch in my head just so I can enjoy myself. All I think, when my salad is set in front of me is, "Thanks for the pesticides." Don't get me wrong, please. I am so grateful to live in America, and to be able to afford a nice meal out from time to time. If I lived somewhere like California, I may have the option of an organic restaurant too. I live in Oklahoma, where they have many places to go out to eat. Unfortunately none of them have the organic option. So, the place you will find me, is here in my very own little kitchen, cooking away. I recently posted a beautiful veggie kabob photo with someone else's recipe blog!! So, I got to work today having fun chopping up big slices of veggies to attempt the kabobs. If you haven't tried Coconut Amino's yet you are going to want to pick some up. I got mine for around $8.00. I think that is pretty expensive, but worth it because of my love for it.
Ok, now for the quick and easy recipe for- Veggie-Kabobs:
Sauce: Squeeze of organic lemon, 2 garlic cloves smashed and chopped, 4 capfuls of organic extra virgin olive oil, pinch of Himalayan sea salt, and some ground black pepper, 3 to 4 swirls of coconut amino's. Get an olive oil brush and stir the ingredients around before you apply.
Veggies: Get your favorites! Any vegetables will do! You could try egg plants too. The veggies I used today were thickly sliced organic green and yellow zucchini, red onion, green bell pepper, cauliflower, broccoli, mushrooms, grape tomatoes, and carrots.
Pre-heat the oven at 400 degrees. Put the veggies on kabob skewers. Brush the veggies with the oil sauce to your idea of enough. (LOL) I made sure they weren't too heavy with the sauce. Put them on a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes. I checked them around 7 minutes and turned them so the broccoli wouldn't burn. They turned out perfectly delicious!! Read the label on the Coconut Amino's.
