Broccoli-My love

I had some broccoli craving...You might start wondering, "Does anyone actually even crave broccoli?"
you know what, you do .. people do .. people who know how to prepare broccoli well, end up missing it if they haven't had it for long.
A wonderfully light steamed broccoli with a touch of salt is so soothing when you want humble food .
Many of you might not be a fan of broccoli prepared the above mentioned way.
For you guys, may i suggest, slightly sauteed broccoli which has been chopped real fine(please use the cleaned and rinsed stems too along with the florets).. and suatee in sunflower oil or peanut oil if you please with chopped garlic and salt..You can eat it as a side with freshly steamed white rice.. oh so goooddd.
OH so goooooooooooooooooooood.

craving for deep fried foods

All last week and the week before that ,I had a sever deep fried food craving.I have also a peculiar issue.. If i eat something oily, within two hours, the fat is already in my blood and then starts getting secreted on my facial glands. Ya know. could be some type of LDL receptor shortage coz of which , none of that fat that gets absorbed gets taken up ty the tissues or whatever..
Anyways..then i get some acne due to all that oily skin.
I fare best therefore with not eating that much of oily food.Either ways. I like the taste and texture of steamed or shallow fried foods better..more mellow and more light to eat.
But then, the last two weeks.. I have been studying hard for an upcoming test and i guess the brain was seriously and severely forming a lot of synapses as part of informatiion processing and memory storage and well,, the brain needs a lot of fats to function right..(not lot as in obesity fat, but the right amount of fats) ..the more and more i studied, the more and more , the brain started using a lot of glucose.. and perhaps the synapse formation also called for more fat in the diet.
This is where the fatty food craving started. I started thinking of deep fried tofu, churrios,, deep fried sweet potatoes and what not..
finally . once i have a craving, i go for.A craving could sometimes be our body's way of asking for a particular type of nutrient that it is needing .
I made all the deep fried stuff i was crying( i hate standing in front of a smoky oily wok and deep frying stuff-i hate the smoke of oil) ..but i made all of them and ate bowl after bowl of this and that of fried foods...I had some oily face days too..but i continued on my pigging on fried foods till finally one day..i felt satisfied.. now the craving is done. it is fine.. I am not any fatter but i guess my overworking brain needed that fat .. so i gave it that ...
Ofcourse i never went and bought deep friend stuff from outside..I took the time to make it all myself.
Moral of story?
If you crave something.. As long as it is vegetarian ...just go for it for a few days..indulge
be vegan but go ahead and have your quota of oils..the body does need them for a variety of metabolic pathways necessary for the health of our nervous system
