Start With Sweet Red Peppers

Have you tried a bag of mini sweet red, orange, and yellow peppers from the grocery store, yet? 

They are delicious any way you serve them. I keep a bag in my refrigerator for cooking and snacking. Their sweetness is the perfect beginning for this spinach side dish.

First, use a large pan. Then sauté the peppers in olive oil with a bit of garlic. Add some sliced mushrooms and whole grape tomatoes allowing them to cook for a few minutes. Next add half of a large container of fresh spinach.

Then, cover the pan and let the leafy greens cook down. Because this vegetable takes up a lot of real estate, you need to cook it in batches, reloading the pan with the rest of the spinach after the first half is cooked down.

Last Step Of Spinach Medley

After the spinach is cooked, it's time to season with salt, red pepper flakes, and soy sauce. Just give it a good stir and you're done! It's so delicious! I get much satisfaction biting into the meaty mushrooms and those little tomatoes that pop with flavor. The heat from the red pepper flakes with the salty soy sauce compliment this spinach side (or main) dish perfectly. They make my mouth happy!

Eating On A Daniel Fast

I know many of us are trying to shed pounds and eat healthier at the beginning of the new year. That's why I thought you'd like this recipe. It was something I whipped up in my kitchen recently while following a Daniel fast.

For the past 3 years, I have joined with others in a 21-day prayer and Daniel fast in the month of January. Basically, the fast is a diet of drinking only water and eating fruits and vegetables while abstaining from sugar, bread, dairy, and meat. I wasn't going to mention it, but this fast has been too good for me not to tell.

Some of the results I've experienced have been that I feel better overall with clearer thinking. Also, I have better time management; the best is a greater sense of God's presence and answered prayers.

If you're interested, the internet has a wealth of information about a Daniel Fast. It may be just the thing you need during this season in your life.

If you'd like another healthy spinach recipe, here is a Creamy Spinach side dish. It's excellent for Keto dieting or just healthy eating. Easy Spinach Bread Recipe With Garlic And Cheese is a super-easy dish that bakes up into an ooey-gooey, cheesy, quick bread.

I've enjoyed our time together and hope to hear from you soon.
