Description ::

A quick, easy and healthy meal for anyone willing to try a meat free day.

 

Pretty simple....

 

1. Put pasta in saucepan with water and turn to high, stiring occationally.

 

2. Add oil to the pan and heat, adding leaf/bud along with basil, thyme and sage. (Chopped onion optional)1 min

 

3. After a minute the smell will be very strong, a beautiful aroma. Don't let it get too brown!! Then add all the chopped vegies and turn the element to high for a few minutes, tossing the veggies occationally.

 

4. After they've been cooking for 3-5 mins, turn element down to about halfway and put lid on top to trap moisture.

 

5. Leave for a further 5odd minutes, then add water and veggie meal powder (can be found in most supermarkets), stir and mix in, putting lid back on. (add honey for extra health kick and taste)

 

6. Simmer for 10 minutes, add pasta to bowl, followed by veggies and sauce. Add parsley if desired.

 

7. Tastes good with freshly squeezed orange juice. Enjoy. (takes 1/2 hour to kick in

Audiospectrum, that sounds great (with or without the bud ).

 

Reckon I'll have to try this one tonight (we'll see what's left of the bag by dinner time )

No problemo, but infinitee, I forgot to let you know that you add the sage and thyme and any other herb you please WITH the weed in the oil at the start. Just re-read and forgot that part.

And it's a good idea to keep the pan covered to trap all the flavour in (veggies and weed). I know, I know I'm a perfectionist.

Oh yes, that reminds me. Had a girlfriend who tried this and then went out to the supermarket to get some garlic bread or milk or something. I just sat on the couch and watched the news while feeling the sensations rise and rise!!!!

Then 30 minutes later my girlfriend comes home absolutely distraught and in BIG trouble! She went to the shop, and when she was in the check out line, the buzz hit her in a massive way. She never smokes so I could see why. She dropped her purse and change went everywhere. She could barely drive home. (the drive was about two blocks away) And she spent the night just hugging me and sort or half sobbing, half laughing. It was not a good experience and I felt terrible, the dose was too high. But she ended up in bed with me listeing to faith no more, just talking and laughing and losing herself in the trip. Great memories!!
