Spring Time in Tennessee

Spring is here! The colors are so vibrant, the sun is shining and the days are going to get longer. Spring is my absolute favorite time of year. This will be the first year that I am not footsteps to a beach to enjoy a beautiful Spring day. This year Robert Morgan Photography will explore and photo document a series tiled "Springtime in Tennessee".

Flowers are blooming, the grass seems greener then ever before and I can not be more excited to photograph "Springtime in Tennessee" over the next few weeks I will be posting as many of our Robert Morgan Photography photos here, so if you are a fan of Spring check back often.

yummy Napa Cabbage stir fry

This is a super quick, healthy veggie stir fry. This dish can be prepared raw or cooked, because of my thyroid I can not eat raw cabbage so I went with cooked.

Prep time 5 minutes
cook time 7-10 minutes on medium heat depending on your texture preference

ingredients:

1 head of napa cabbage
1 large red bell pepper sliced
1 medium red onion chopped
3 carrot sticks sliced
3 celery sticks sliced

sesame seed oil
chili flakes
low sodium soy sauce or Bragg's
sesame seeds
bean sprouts

Start by infusing 1 quarter of a cup of sesame oil with as much chili flake as you desire, I like mine hot.
The infusion should take about 3 minutes.

Next add chopped onion allow the onion to cook down with the infused oil for about 3 minutes

Then add cabbage, red bell pepper, celery, and carrots, cook the veggies for about 7 minutes then add soy sauce to your desired flavor I go with about 4 tablespoons. Garnish the dish with sesame seeds and fresh bean sprouts. This dish is lovely, full of fiber and very filling.
