Dinner musings

While I've been enjoying a great deal of variety in my cooking, I started feeling the urge to eat more than I should be, so I decided that it was time to simplify. Last night, I went back to basics:

Falafel chicken
cauliflower stir-fried with whole cumin seed, whole fennel seed, fenugreek and pepper
Eggplant - 1/2 chickpea flour breaded, baked then broiled and 1/2 grilled on the George Foreman.
Yogurt with a touch of pomegranate molasses, almond extract and a few drops of lemon.
A granny smith apple

Easy, simple and filling.

The falafel chicken was the best I've ever made; rather than baking the chicken, I used the GF grill. Holy crap, was it tasty. So juicy and tender that I'm cheating and having the same thing tonight.

I'm also going to nix the nighttime fruit bit. I think all that sugar has been disrupting my sleep.
