Don't say you weren't warned !!!

This is a Patrick Holford recipe from his Food Glorious Food low GL recipe book !

Chickpea & Cauliflower Curry ..serves 4

2 Tbsp coconut oil ( or olive oil)
3 Tbsp or to taste Med curry paste ( or curry powder )
2 large onions sliced
1 small cauliflower broken into florets
410g chickpeas drained and rinsed
400ml can coconut milk ( not reduced fat..most of the coconuts renowned health properties are in the fat )
1 cup hot vegetable stock
1 Tbsp Tamari or soy sauce
250g fine green beans ( I usually use a few handfuls of chopped spinsch or kale instead)
Handful torn coriander

Fry the onions and the curry in the oil for 5 minutes
Add c/flower and chickpeas and stir to coat
Stir in coconut milk, stock and tamari.
Bring to boil, cover and simmer over gentle heat for about 30 minutes
Stir in the beans / spinach and cook for another 5 or so minutesor until beans are tender
Scatter with coriander before serving !

I love this..it is quite horrible if you over cook it !

HEY KIANA!!! You own page 9137

Congrats

Edit: Reading forward I now see that you are already aware of this momentous occasion

Mars made most of the page owner thingies, Peeku made GrannyCrys'. you may be able to nab one out of mine or someone elses siggy and change the number (or would that not be the done thing I wonder???) or some other Granny cleverer than I may make one for you! ....I will probably continue to read forward and find that it has already been sorted

I see on the TV news that the UK is in the grip of extremem WINTER weather right now. We on the other hand are enjoying a very warm autumn (a tad too warm for me still at max 32 ish C temps but at least with the shorter days, it is hot for a shorter time)

SHE IS DARLING!

We honestly don't know where she came from; she and Russ look very much alike. Evan looks like my family.

So hopefully in 3 weeks I will be out of the walking cast and doing well or at least that is the dr's goal. We shall see.

glad to hear you are progressing well MM, take care

I also have a few boxes of marshmallow eggs for all my little pre-schoolers in the township .. I have missed them..I haven't seen them for ages !!

Big grandson Aiden will not be home this Easter

. I sent him an easter goodie package last week, then sent a text to say watch his mailbox this week, that there are easter goodies coming. He said "I have been very slack at checking emails recently but will definitely keep an eye on them this week" When I text back to tell him it was his SNAILMAIL mailbox I was referring to, he said he had forgotten there was such a thing

I do have some wheat for sprouting /growing into wheat-grass and am wondering if that is how you buy it in your Food Storage Capital !!
Why do your church leaders suggest you store all that food ..do they know something that we don't ??

I think I have asked you all before what would you save/take/need if the world was about to be changed and throw us back into pre-civilisation times. (I read a lot of armageddon/disaster/ distopian type books

) . I have a list

and one granny (I cannot remember which one) said that her husband already had stored some of the basic needs of living in preparation for such an event. I would store candles, matches, knives, can opener (to open cans whilever they remained available), axes, other tools/weapons, wheeled stuff (wheelbarrow, bikes, shopping trolley), blankets.....
