Food Storage Recipe - High Protein Quinoa Bowl


 A delicious high-protein vegan dish. Yummy fresh flavors. Simple to throw together. 

NEED:

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3/4 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1.5 cups vegetable broth or chicken broth, or water
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 3 cups cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for serving
  • Optional toppings: sour cream, shredded cheese, avocado, hot sauce, limes, etc.

In a large pot , heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute the diced onion and red bell pepper until they are softened and browned, approximately 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional thirty seconds.

 Stir in the rinsed quinoa, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, kosher salt, and black pepper. Ensure the quinoa is well-coated with the aromatic mixture. Pour in the vegetable broth, stir, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the quinoa is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.

 Stir in the frozen corn and cooked black beans and cook on low heat until the corn and beans are heated through, approximately 5 minutes. Add the chopped fresh cilantro and adjust seasoning to taste.

Serve in bowls. Garnish with additional fresh cilantro and any desired optional toppings such as sour cream, shredded cheese, avocado slices, hot sauce, or a squeeze of lime juice.

DIY Outdoor Fun - Darts

This is a simple outdoor dart board setup. It was basically free to me. I already had the darts and board that were set up in my garage. The fence post was one that was left over from putting up a fence. Flower pot I had. It has some pavers in it for now. Next time I get to the store I will get some more potting soil to put in it and maybe plant some flower seeds. 

This was very easy to do, maybe took me about 15 minutes. I got the fence post and put it in the flower pot that was a little more than half full of soil. I had a screw in hook for hanging things that I used. Just screwed it into the post. Hung the dart board from it and got to playing. 

The darts I had to have since then the whole family can play and it is just easier to have a lot of darts. 

We use a small whiteboard to keep score on. I also bring in the dart board when we are done. Not sure how long it would last if it was left out there day and night. 

Ignore the white clothesline that goes across. I hang my towels there to dry and to get it out of the way for darts I just pull it up onto the hook.

Self Sufficient


Self-sufficiency is the ability to provide for oneself without relying on others for help or support. Being self-sufficient means taking responsibility for one's own needs, whether they be physical, emotional, or financial. For example, a self-sufficient person is able to cook their own meals, manage their own finances, and solve their own problems without constantly seeking assistance from others.


Self-sufficiency is an important skill to develop as it allows individuals to become more independent and self-reliant. By learning how to take care of themselves and meet their own needs, individuals can become more confident and empowered to face the challenges of daily life. Being self-sufficient also fosters a sense of pride and accomplishment, as individuals are able to see the results of their hard work and efforts.


Ultimately, Self-sufficiency is a valuable trait that can lead to personal growth and success. By being able to rely on oneself and not constantly depend on others for support, individuals can achieve greater levels of autonomy and freedom. Self-sufficiency also enables individuals to adapt to changes and challenges more effectively, as they have the skills and resources necessary to overcome obstacles on their own. In conclusion, developing self-sufficiency is an important goal for individuals looking to become more independent and capable in their lives.
