The Minimalist Yogi

        Hi everyone, hope everybody is having a great start to the week. Lets talk about food, so a lot of people or some  enjoy the idea of "take out," which I enjoy as well every one and then, specially on those days when you don't feel like cooking or doing anything. But take out like eating out cost a lot of money. So to enjoy the pleasure of having a take out, I decided to buy the container that's generally given in restaurants for take out and made my own home take out. As you read the list of the ingredients you'll notice that I've used the same ingredients as the ones for the "caribbean explosion" the reason being because I do "mass cooking" meaning I cook two or three things at the same time, which saves me time and money. Ingredients -2-3 cups of pasta -2 carrot (chopped and diced) -Red, yellow and green bell pepper -Half sween corn -Half tomato -1 Leek (chopped and diced) -1 of each of   cayenne, jalapeño ...

Hi everyone, hope everyone is having an amazing week. I am going to start by apologizing for not blogging for while, I've been really busy with work and more work. Regardless, I am back and have something great things to share with you guys. Yesterday I had the great pleasure of trying a new recipe which one of my co-worker called Caribbean Explosion because of the colours and the hot spices. This recipe is really simple, and takes less than hour to do.  This recipe is simple yet amazing, the taste is all in the spices. I think this recipe depicts how easy it is to take something as simple and plain as rice and vegetables and turn into something  great.  P.S. Sorry about the pictures, I took the picture with my Ipod so I doesn't have the best quality.  Ingredients: -1 sweet corn -Yellow, Green, and Red bell pepper  (diced) -2 cups of wild rice and white rice -1 Tomato (Diced) -Carrot -Pepper (cayenne, jalapeño and chili pepper) Diced -3 Green onio...

I meant to blog yesterday, but I had a little incident that left me shaken and just wanted to hide in my room.  Enough about my life, lets talk about FOOD!!!, as always I am trying different recipes just about everyday, and over the week I decided to make my own recipe.

Salut tout le monde,  thé weekend is almost here and I am super excited!  Recently one of my co-worker went to London England, and she brought us English tea which I love so much. I had my last cup of English tea yesterday and I am disappointed that I don't have ay left. Regardless, I surely enjoyed my last cup of english tea. I am not sure if this says something about the British intellects, but the box gave direction on how to make a tea, which I think is sunny for two reasons, one because everyone knows how to make a tea, two its ironic because British are associated with tea it seems almost stupid to put the direction. Regardless, I enjoy my British English tea.  With my last English tea I had a delicious lentil salad with Spinach. This recipe is really simple, and its my go to recipe when I am tired or just not in the mood for cooking. Similar to the Barely salad, you can add just about anything. I prefer to keep it simple, but colourful.  Ingredien...
