Vegetarian Farro Chickpea Stew

Stealthy Recipes by JESSICA0 comments

Well I’m officially feeling better. Praise baby Jesus! After 3 days with minimal movement and human interaction, I was starting to question my sanity. I’m pretty sure at one point Mac started talking… that may have also been the 27 ibprofin I took to rid myself of omgtheworstheadacheever.

 

But about this stew. I made it about 2 weeks ago as “lunch for the week”, and it was my first tango with farro. Farro is an interesting little grain. Much like quinoa, it’s a very versatile grain, and a fantastic source of protein (7g per serving). I used the pearled variety, which basically means the outer husk has been removed, making it much easier (and faster!) to prepare. I feel extremely smart right now. (Don’t be fooled, though, I’m sure to say something completely air-headed in the next few seconds.)

 

In fact, in middle-school, people used to pull on my ear and make a hissing noise, as if to let the air out of a balloon. Only because I was such an airhead, I didn’t even get what that meant. I also earned the nickname “Duh, Jessica” after an unfortunate incident in gym glass where I shot a hockey puck into the wrong goal. And yes, I realize it’s pretty funny, but dude, middle school was hard enough without adding fuel to the fire.

Really, I could talk about how much I loathed grades 4-7 all day. I mean, how is it possible that between the ages of 8 and 11 human beings are capable of being pure evil? Yes, I was smart and maybe I was the kid who raised their hand a lot. And ok, so I had glasses and was freakishly tall, but whatever. Excuse me for being enthusiastic about learning and wanting to be friends with my teachers, is that so wrong? Stupid mean kids…

Can you even imagine if we had Facebook back then? Oof. It literally gives me the chills.

Speaking of, you know what’s good for chills?

Offff course you do.

 

Vegetarian Farro Chickpea Stew
Serves: 6
Cook time: about 40 minutes
You’ll Need:
1 T olive oil
1/2 cup frozen chopped kale
1/2 a medium yellow onion, chopped
1 tsp. crushed red pepper
1 tsp. cumin
1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
1 T garlic, minced
15 oz can diced tomatoes
15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
6 cups water + 2 T Better Than Bouillon vegetable base (or sub veg stock)
1 cup farro, rinsed and drained
Salt & pepper to taste

Directions: In a large soup pot, heat oil over med-high heat and sautee onion, kale, crushed red pepper and garlic until onions are translucent and kale is softened. Add diced tomatoes, cumin and paprika, and simmer for about 6 minutes. Add vegetable broth, chickpeas and farro. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until farro is al dente. Salt & pepper to taste. Serve with crusty bread.

 

This soup was way better than middle school.

Happy Monday!…

Wheat Berry Salad (Veg Challenge Kick Off)

Stealthy Recipes by JESSICA0 comments

Oh hey, have you heard about my exciting 28 Day Vegetarian Challenge? If you work with me, are my friend or are married to me, chances are you have and get the idea. K, just making sure.

 

Now that we have that out of the way, let me introduce brand new ingredient number one:
Wheat Berries, come on doowwwnnnn!

And oh, hello, what do we have here…?

Wheat Berry Salad

Ha…tricked you, its fakon. (Fake+bacon). While thinking about this recipe, I couldn’t deny that bacon would be the perfect add-in, but alas, not allowed in the challenge. Enter facon. (Which I’ve also never used…might count that in week 4 if I’m lazy, just sayin.)

Then I had the brilliant idea to sautee my kale in the facon oil as to not waste any of the essence of meat. Hmm..maybe this challenge is going to be harder than I thought.

I did spend like $200 at the grocery store yesterday in preparation for this, so I should probably go ahead and get excited about it. At least when my husband is looking…
Yes, dear, I absolutely needed 47 bags of frozen vegetables. I know that’s a lot but, I can’t have meat, and am going to be super hungry. Yes, fine, you can get a new Xbox game.

 

Plus as long as I can still use olive oil and goat cheese I think I’ll fair just fine. (Check in with me in about three weeks to confirm that statement.)

Wheat Berry Salad
(Inspired by Macheesmo)
You’ll Need:
1 cup uncooked soft white wheat berries
2 cups roughly chopped kale
1 tsp coconut oil
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 orange bell pepper, finely chopped
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
3 strips vegetarian bacon substitute
1 avocado
1 lemon
1-2 tbsp goat cheese
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt and Pepper

Directions:
Cook wheat berries according to package. (I placed mine in water with a 1/4 tsp of salt, brought to a boil, reduced to simmer and cooked for about 70 minutes.) When finished cooking, drain and set aside.
Evenly dice onion and pepper, slice the avocado and combine in a large bowl. Sautee bacon over medium heat for about 4 minutes in a coated pan. Remove and crumble into bowl with peppers and onion. Add about a tsp of coconut oil to pan over med heat, and sautee kale with the oil from the bacon. Sprinkle nutmeg over kale, then sautee, stirring to distribute flavor. Once fairly wilted, remove from heat and combine with other ingredients. Add about a tbsp of lemon zest and the juice of half a lemon and toss. Spoon in cooked wheat berries and drizzle with olive oil. Crumble goat cheese on top and toss all ingredients to combine. Salt and pepper to taste.

 

So yeah, this was pretty fantastic. Who knew wheat berries were so delicious? They have a really unique texture and flavor to them that I really like. I will most definitely be eating this for lunch all week. Lots of good flavor and very filling, which is key, especially when you take meat out of your diet. Or if you are a chronic afternoon snacker. Which I am. (You can take my meat, but you’ll never have my Nutella.)…

Luck Be a Spare Key Tonight (Shrimp Étouffée Recipe)

Stealthy Recipes by JESSICA0 comments

I’m not what you’d call “lucky”. I don’t win raffles, I’ve never found a $100 bill and no one’s showed up at my house yet with that sweepstakes check that I’ve been promised now like 300 times… (I’m on to you, random “to current resident” letters…if you don’t know my name, how can you possibly know I’ve won anything…hmm..)

Back to my bad luck. Last night I took the pup for a run. It was a gorgeous day and I was excited to get some bonding time in with the handsome little fellow while getting in my workout. I knew I had to hustle though, because it was my father-in-law’s birthday and the Mr. would be home soon to go to dinner. I picked up my cell phone to leave a message for said husband that went as follows:
“Hey hun, taking the dog for a run, be home in like 40 minutes. Locking the door- hope you have your key, see you when you get here!” Click. Phone on counter. Door locked. Gettin’ my run on.
About 40 minutes later, as promised, we huffed back to the house and as I went to turn the door knob, I found an upsetting thing…it was still locked.

After about 10 minutes of my dog giving me the stink eye and panting heavily, I asked a neighbor for some water. I jealously watched him quench his little puppy thirst, wishing I’d asked for water for myself. I waited another 20 minutes, during which I proceeded to perform walking lunges across the distance of my backyard followed by awkward squats. Whats an awkward squat you ask? Have you ever tried doing squats while holding onto a 90lb dog who has a fancy for chasing wildlife? Bonus: core strengthener.

So after about 45 minutes of (not so) patiently waiting, I decided I should probably mosey back to the neighbors and make a phone call. Here’s a little recap:

Brandon: “Hey where are you??? I’ve called you like 10 times!”
Me: “Oh, did you by chance listen to your message?”
Brandon: “Yes, you took the dog for a walk. I’ve been freaking out thinking you were abducted! Who’s number is this?? Is this a ransom call??”
Me: <long silence> “I’m not coming to dinner.”

Does that make me a bad wife? Maybe. But at least I know how to listen to a voicemail.

So now onto ways that I am lucky:

  • I do actually have a pretty amazing husband. And even when he doesn’t listen, he still has the cutest dimples I’ve ever seen which conveniently can instantly make me forget why I was angry
  • I also have the best mom in the world who teaches me how to cook really delicious things
  • One of those things is Shrimp Étouffée
  • I now know how to make Shrimp Étouffée and am going to share with you!
  • Don’t you feel lucky… 🙂

Shrimp Étouffée

(Adapted from: Simplyrecipes.com)
You’ll need:
2 pounds shrimp
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup flour
1/2 large onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped
1 large celery stalk, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 pint clam juice
2 Tbsp Cajun seasoning
1 Tbsp sweet paprika
Salt
3 green onions, chopped
Hot sauce (we used Crystal)
1 28oz can diced tomatoes (this added the perfect touch!)
Pinch of fresh cilantro
Pinch of Thai basil (these were last-minute add-ons as well from the garden, & they added nice flavor)

Dice up your veggies. Then make a roux by heating oil in a heavy pot over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Stir …

Amino acids are plant-based compounds composed of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen. Our body requires 20 different types of amino acids to function and grow properly. Although all of them are significant for our health, only 9 of them get classified as vital.

Our body does not have the ability to make the essential amino acids and that is why we need to obtain them through our diet. The best sources are animal proteins such as meat, poultry, and eggs.

When you consume protein, it breaks down into amino acids, which our body uses for various processes like regulating immune function, building muscle, and losing weight.

Valine

Tryptophan

Show Them Your Charisma With Classic Men’s Green Bomber Jacket

Stylish by JESSICA0 comments

Even though it’s women’s fashion that is assumed to be one of the most complicated things existing on earth, the difficulty level is evaluated right next to the examinations for getting into Massachusetts. Yet, it’s not indeed the case.

 

Women’s fashion contains an abundance of diversity of styles and types of clothing, which may seem very overwhelming apparently. Still, in reality, it is easier to decide exactly what you want. But the real complications manage to creep in for men’s fashion.

 

However, diversity this generation wants to bring into their closet, and no matter how many new designs are curated, men’s fashion items are limited, at least when compared to women’s, making it harder for men to calculate the variations needed. However, men’s fashion has plenty of timeless pieces that never fail to level up the fashion game of men. No matter how saturated the market gets with that genre of clothing, it would still make the one wearing it stand out in the crowd for the style laced on the garment.

 

And if you already know what it is, you got it right, Bomber jackets. And even though you may find plenty of colours of Bomber Jackets that look just as fine and chic, there’s something about a classic men’s green bomber jacket that takes your entire look to a different level, coated with taste and fashion.

green bomber jacket

 

The style is flocking back into the market.

 

  • Bomber jackets are madly on the market at present. Everywhere you look, there’s at least one man who is wearing one of these. Making it a saturated yet classy piece of garment, especially in 2021. It’s pretty interesting how even the extreme popularity graph of a piece of clothing doesn’t affect the outfit it creates if that’s a timeless piece already, like the bomber jackets.

 

  • These went so viral that women started ditching their female bomber jackets, and wearing men’s oversized bomber jackets became a female Instagram trend in no time. As bizarre as it could be, trends are indeed unbelievable!

 

  • The popularity has reached one such peak where high-end luxury brands as huge as Tom Ford and Ermenegildo Zegna were bound to pay some attention to bomber jackets as well. Resulting in designing and launching premium jackets of the same fashion but with luxurious twists, a must.

 

  • And not only that. The style was even improvised and launched into the market by affordable fashion brands like Sandbank and Alpha industries with their unique touch and consistent restock and efforts to meet the hiking demands of the market, considering how the upwards graph of bomber jackets is not anticipated to come down any soon.

 

Are these jackets just a whimsical fad, or is it indeed a useful piece?

 

  • Nothing that is timeless and is so well accepted by people of all strata of the society is ever not a useful piece of clothing. People may get swayed away by how fashionable a piece is without detecting its utility, making it a trend, but that never lasts. Only things that are indeed functional and can keep providing value to one’s closet is what the fashion industry calls a “timeless piece of clothing.”

 

  • Bomber jackets, besides having their immense utility, carry a dependable factor to them. You can carry it and reliably use it for the purpose you’ve got them for, and they will serve you just right. Besides being that elegant piece to amp your outfit, it indeed does its purpose instead of being there just for show, and hence, it is a must-have
