The Curried Indian Pot Stew was fabulous! Only it was really hard to get the right amount of curry. I made a single batch as Jeff lays it out, and kept adding the curry powder. I probably could've just put the whole darn jar in there! But I'll know for next time.
I'm also finding what works for me is to add more veg even, so that it's really chunky and I have lots of servings to freeze.
I also noticed that when it comes to white potato, I get overly full if I eat a whole one (weighs about 8 oz) compared to when I eat a whole sweet potato. Not sure why, but I learned a big lesson. Couldn't figure why I was so bloated and overly full after my lunches then it hit me and the following days I split the bowl of 8oz pot to 4 oz each (I prefer to keep my grain separate so there is more room for the veg in the pot). Is there any reason for this? Maybe more carb in the white pot? Fortunately, I worked it off with exercise and was fine next day.
This week I'm going to try the Mexican dish.
I must admit I was really hesitant re: frozen veg ie, whether I'd like them or not, but it's the spices that do the trick for sure. The only things I'm still cutting up are Vadalia Onion (love these fresh!!), celery, and radish. Other than that, it's all frozen and no more salads for now which take me 1/2 hour to eat at work! Don't miss them (but prob will start eating them again come summer).
Really happy with this ease compared to what I'd been doing!!! And, I'm saving money!
