Last night I had my LAST MEAL, before I started my the 3-day Catalyst Cleanse today. I was cooking for Danny and I (and my sister who only ate the veggies, because she was already juicing), so of course I had to make enough protein and manly food for Danny, while satisfying my need to "ween" myself into the cleanse with some fresh veggies and raw foods.
What did I make? Chicken with white wine sauce, (recipe to come at a later date - but YUM!), green beans and grilled veggies. I always love when summer comes, because veggies are so fresh and grilling them brings out their flavor in such a simply way.
I started with the basics: Eggplant, red pepper, and farmers market local jersey zucchini!
(love that the farmer's markets are open in new jersey).
I kept it simple. Just cut the veggies into strips (for the pepper) and eggplant and zucchini into circles (is that the right term, no, probably not. Welcome to Erica's language.)
After they were all cut, I sprinkled with olive oil, salt and pepper.
Now to the girll. Just simply place them on the grill, so they start to sear and get the grill stripes. I kept a small bowl of olive oil, salt and pepper next to the grill with a basting brush to keep the veggies moist as they were on the grill.
Viola! The finished product. Yum! I love summer veggies. The whole process takes about 20 minutes.
