Mostly veggie meals

Making:

Mostly veggie bowl with bacon

1 serving prepared 

Here's what I have:

2.5 cups French beans 

2 cups Button mushroom sliced

3 slices Bacon, cooked

3 cloves Garlic 

1/2 cup Shredded carrot 

1 tbsp Onion flakes 

1 tbsp Stock oncentrate

1/2 tsp Bacon butter 

*Not pictured 

Mozzarella cheese 

Broth or water

Preperation:

After heating up the cast iron I dropped in the mushrooms and bacon. These were took together until the bacon was warm and fat beginning to cook off into the pan. Next I added the onion flakes garlic and stock concentrate. These need to be cooked together until the mushrooms are thoroughly cooked, they will shrink slightly and become darker. 

After these were cooked thoroughly I removed them from the pan and put in the 1/2 teaspoon of bacon butter followed by the French beans and shredded carrot. Since the carrots are shredded and the beans cooked quickly this won't take long. I added a bit of broth in this part of the process to pull some of the flavor from the mushroom mixture out for the vegetables. Then I  cooked everything down until the liquid was gone. This part was just as quick as cooking the mushroom/bacon mix.

I decided to add some mozzarella cheese to the bowl at the end.

The bowl!

This was a quick meal, the vegetables could be switched out for any that are quick or easy to cook. Mixed together this would make a great side dish that could be split into two servings.

To turn this into a vegetarian meal you could take out the bacon, cheese and use a vegetable based oil instead.
