Been trying to eat less meat lately for health reasons. This was a first attempt at an actual meal without using any animal products. I think it turned out well.
That looks SO GOOD
Yum
Sounds really good, I’d probably add a spoonful of sour cream for a little bit of freshness and adjust the spice quantities accordingly.
