105. Isn't it wonderful to be able to taste food?

I made this today:

I used white beans instead of Kidney beans. I ate a bowl, and went back for more. The Okra becomes much less slimy when cooked in a soup. What little slipperiness that remains helps with swallowing.

Usually I could eat a little bit, and then would start becoming queasy. It did't happen this time. I'm either getting better, or this stew is awesome. 270 calories per serving.


I used regular brown rice and cooked them for twenty minutes before adding other ingredients. Maybe a little barley would be fun.

Tip for brown rice. Add walnuts or chestnuts while cooking. They will be nice and soft by the time the rice is finished. Pecans would be unbelievably sinful.
