I wasn't sure if the rice cooker would finish in time, but it did, so he got two kinds of rice today, a bamboo-infused short grain white rice (the bamboo makes it pale green) and brown basmati.
This is served with butternut squash first steamed and then sauteed with garlic, red onions, and red bell peppers.
The soup today is green garlic and chickpea soup, made with two bunches of green garlic, chickpeas I'd cooked in the rice cooker, fresh thyme and a little olive oil , some lemon juice and zest, and smoked hot paprika.
The salad is mixed baby greens with apples and pecans and sliced smoked turkey under that. I can't recall the dressing but it was probably more of the honey-mustard.
The dessert is nonfat yogurt mixed with a little maple syrup and topped with cinnamon.
