Somen Noodles with Mizuna, Japanese Eggplants and Pork

Today is an Animal Protein Day.

Most of our diets are plant based. However, we like to mix meat in our diet sometimes.  When dishes are prepared with meat, they are cooked healthiest possible.

Cooked Somen noodles in the bottom, covered up with Mizuna. Eggplants, minced pork, and mushrooms are cooked with sesame oil, seasoned with garlic, chili, soy source, sake, sweet rice wine, and a hint of kombu extract.
Sprinkle with chopped scallions and sesame seeds.  Mixed them well when you eat!

Roasted Peppers Stuffed with Amaranth


Roast peppers and fill them up with a grain power! 

Colorful veges make me smile.    
Roast peppers, and fill them up with amaranth mix (Amaranth cooked with vegetable broth and sauteed with onion and lentil).  Sprinkle panko and roast again until just panko gets colored.
