Those times when I'm prepared in advance with batch salad, grains in fridge are super easy.

9 mins to steam kale=9minute meal because of pre-prep for when hungry/tired/busy.

Kale bags already cut in strips is an easy cheap buy UK. Steam/ microwave with splash water. Dash lemon juice. Optionally Nutritional Yeast Flakes add a cheesy taste. Any greens / cruciferous veg. works fine.

I fairly often keep a pot of grains in the fridge. Make with rice steamer/ instant pot etc. I tend to vary 3 or 4 grain types (eg Black Rice, Quinoa, Oat Groats) keeps it interesting.

Adding to the Kale some reheated Black rice & pre-prepared batch salad.

When I don't add the leaves, I can make a big lidded bowl of batch salad that will keep in the fridge for most of a week. Make it different each time with whatever is to hand. Some examples:

✅ soy sauce or tamari
✅ garlic (frozen or fresh pressed)
✅ some frozen chopped herbs (coriander here), or dried
✅ chilli flakes & spices
✅ Tumeric and fresh ground black pepper (in particular that 2combo is potent in med studies)
✅ Lemon juice or apple cider
✅ beans
✅ lentils
✅ Tofu
✅ Cucumber
✅ Peppers
✅ Onion (I like red)

@vegan@a.gup.pe@cooking@chirp.social@cooking@lemmy.world@algorithm@veganism.social@nm@veganism.socialSo, everyone knows blueberries are healthy right, lots of anti-carcinogens to help us with all the pollution in modern life & food.

Did you know black beans have more antioxidants than blueberries? Kidney beans have more too! garbanzo/chickpeas even higher levels! Lentils are above the lot!

Anyway this salad was yum😋Lots mixed leaves including arugala/rocket, lambs ear, romaine
Beetroot, carrot, red onion
Lentils, garbanzo
Tofu, kidney beans (I prefer them rinsed if canned)
Fresh cilantro/ coriander
Powdered red chili
Lemon juice
Tamari
