Baked buckwheat with veggies

How about a nice piece of baked buckwheat and veggies with your fish? Or with your steak, if that floats your boat...How about just a platefull of this deliciousness all on it's own? That's what I did, and let me tell you- nothing wqas missing :D
I had quite a day today, I've been up since 5am and it's now 10.30pm. It's been a long day, so please forgive me for making this post short. But I did promise you a recipe, and one has to keep their promises. So here it is.



What you'll need:
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 cups of soaked buckwheat
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables - I used cauliflower, broccoli, caroots and spinach
  • ½ medium zucchini
  • 3-4 eggs - I used 1 whole egg and 3 egg whites
  • coconut oil 
  • spices - turmeric, cayenne pepper, sweet pepper, salt
What to do:
  • Heat the coconut oil in a pan. Once it's hot add the chopped onions and garlic. Saute untill soft.
  • Cut the vegetables into small pieces and add them to the pan
  • Once the veggies have softened, add the soaked buckwheat. Stir together and remove from heat
  • In a seperate bowl mix together the eggs and the spices.
  • Scoop the buckwheat into your bakingbowl and pour over the egg mixture
  • Slice the zucchini and arrange the slices on top of the buckwheat
  • Put into the oven: 150* for about 20min - check it once in a while, because every oven is different :P
The dish is delicious served hot or cold. It can also be reheated :D 

Bon Apetit
