A recipe for the vegetarian minded

Yesterday, Sat was a tough run where we started at Oak Park - at the New Balance store in Raleigh, NC - hills coming back were rough for me - my butt, hamstrings and psoas were tight but at least this is a good thing since those are firing whereas it was not before.

One of the girls in the pace group said she liked my blog and posting and will be looking for recipes because she wants to become a vegetarian. I got some recipes in the blog that she can try, but here I am adding another one. This one is gluten free, less oil, less sodium. You can always add eggs, tofu or beans to it for added protein.

Brown Rice Spaghetti with mixed vegetables
- I brought this gluten free pasta from Whole Foods - cook it for 15 mins approx. - you want it al dente
- mixed vegetables - zucchini squash from my garden, carrots, broccili florets, red onions, garlic but you can add anything you want.
- added a little oil for stir frying - onions and garlic first, then the carrots and broccili since they take longer to cook -
- then add the pasta -
- the the zucchini since this does not take long to cook
- you can add any sauce you want to it, I added sesame oil, some cooking wine, Braggs Aminos, some oyster sauce, black pepper, if you like you can throw in the hot sauce
- Toss everything and ta da - you got a beautiful looking pasta dish

Enjoy!
