Okra, Green Bean Dinner

Well what's for dinner tonight?

This delicious vegetable dish that we're putting on top of quinoa.

Heat a little olive oil with a pinch of red chili flakes and 2 crushed garlic cloves. After 5 minutes add a box of cherry tomatoes and let them sear and then simmer for 15 minutes. In the meantime wash and cut a couple of cups of green beans into 1 inch pieces and cut the tops off the okra and cut in half.

Add the okra and green beans, some sea salt and cracked black pepper and cover and let cook for 30 minutes. Once everything is cooked and all the flavours have melded together put on top of quinoa and enjoy!

There was one time where I had a bit of roasted red peppers that were left over and threw them in there as well - it was delicious as well.

Enjoy the rest of the beautiful sunshine!
