So, I successfully went all of Lent without eating meat, except for March 16th, when I accidentally ate some mini meat empanadas at a birthday party. As a penitence, I gave up alcohol. So I went 40 (counting Good Friday) days and nights without meat and 33 days without alcohol. It was great. I did miss meat at times and alcohol a lot, but I actually like being pecatarian and alcohol free. I’m actually going to remain a part-time carnivore, eating meat maybe once a week or so.
Just to recap my Lent, I’m going to upload pictures of some of things I cooked while everyone was out meatloving.
-
- I love Porgy! It’s delicious and inexpensive. I served my Porgy with squash, sweet potatoes, anything!
-
- This recipe was delicious! It’s baby scallops with a kiwi avocado salsa and veggies on the side
-
- Carp is also delicious and inexpensive
-
- More Porgy! Couldn’t get enough Porgy
-
- I made tilapia fillets with avocado, garlic, and cilantro sprinkled with my homeade dressing, stuffed into a pita bread pocket.
-
- I made my own hummus! Delicious.
-
- Crab Avocado salad. See my previous post for this recipe
-
- Calamari! Made this oh so many ways and times.
etc. etc. etc.
