Day 1 Meal 1

I made my first meal on the Daniel Fast, potato and green onion fritata. The prep work was the longest part. The recipe called for 4 cloves of garlic, minced. Dealing with garlic is so time consuming. That really has to be a better way to mince garlic. It took about 10 minutes to mince garlic clove #1. 1 down and 3 to go. I get going on clove #2 and I have decided I am going to only use 2 cloves instead of 4. Chopping onions I have down pact, so that was easy. The fun part was using 2 lb of tofu. I've heard of tofu. I know it's a meat subsitute. I have never eaten or used it in a recipe before. Opening the package was the beginning of this adventure. Once I get the package open I put it in the blender. Initially the blender acted as if it was not feeling the tofu. I started mashing it up and the blender started working much better. Tofu mixture is done. 45 minutes later, the meal is done and I try my first serving. It wasn't half bad. Good taste and all I could taste was the garlic.

  1. This looks great, JO! I've had tofu in smoothies but never as an entrée. You've encouraged me to pull out the pots and pans for the next 20 days.

    Keep the faith!

  2. Pull them out. My kitchen has gotten a workout today between making just 2 meals.
