\"\"<\/a>There is a remarkable way to make a healthy and delicious meal, simply and conveniently. I discovered this during a time when I found myself tired, with my belly acting up and my lower abdomen feeling heavy and my body overall fatigued. I was too tired to cook and my body didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really want a full meal or any raw food which either felt unwanted to me. What I did want was vegetables but in the simplest form, easily digestible and of course good for me. So I picked up what has now become a staple for my freezer- frozen vegetable mix for potage<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Potage<\/em> is a fancy French way of saying a soupy mix of veggies blended together and served as a meal. I did this recently and found that my body was able to easily digest the vegetables in this form and it was soothing and warm to my belly which I craved. It was simple and satisfying and that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s probably half the reason why it went over well with me.<\/p>\n

Here are the goods:<\/p>\n

1. A bag or two of frozen vegetables<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0– a nice preferably organic mix of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Mediterranean\u00e2\u20ac\u009d or \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Asian\u00e2\u20ac\u009d mixed as they call it would be good. I tend to stick to the broccoli cauliflower, zucchini and carrot based mix.<\/p>\n

2. Take bag of vegetables and defrost in pan<\/em>, add whatever herbs or spices you like, some vegetable broth if you like.<\/p>\n

3. Remove and add to blender<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0– blend up to consistency you like, add more or less water to make it liquid.<\/p>\n

4. Serve with some steamed vegetables<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0that have been prepared separately or not at all.
\nYou can pair your potage<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0with quinoa<\/em>, millet<\/em> any grain on the side if you find you are still hungry and need a little more, or just enjoy it, sit back and relax.<\/p>\n

Hoping this meets your belly with delight, and if you find a vegetable mix for a potage that really sits well with you, due share, so it can make it to my next shopping list for my potage of the week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
