I am reading a book called Anticancer. It talks about how food from our grandparents time is drastically different from what we produce and buy today. Let's get back to basics...
•Long grain wild rice
•Eggplant
•Tomato
•Humus
•Cilantro
•Balsamic vinegar
Make some mixed rice. I like to make extra to put it other dishes throughout the week.
Slice the eggplant in 1/2 in thick. Brush with evoo (extra virgin olive oil) and grill in a pan or on a grill. Sprinkle with a touch of salt of you prefer. Slice some raw tomatoes the same thickness.
On a bed of rice, layer one slice of tomato on top of the eggplant but spread your choice of hummus on the eggplant first. Top with cilantro and balsamic vinegar.
Enjoy!
