Monica,
Thanks!, this helps.. I like nice big chunks so I think I will parboil at least the potatoes first, and then let them cool, which will give the texture I know I like and also cut down on sauteing time when it comes time to prepare the actual/whole meal. It's fun having someone in here to talk to!, I have been working with food and cooking since 4 years of age, when my Dad [we were raised alone by my Father] out of necessity began teaching us to cook. He, too, was into health and wellbeing, through the beneficial use of food(s) so I received a very early start and education in this arena.
It seems to always be in large part my job [and joy!] to feed people and/or help them heal through more beneficial food choices in near every situation, work or social, I find myself in. As a careworker, this also extends into household cleaning, hygiene and medicines, moving away from the chemicals and poisons, toward Earth/eco-friendly, holistic options. It is all! very fun, I like helping people feel better, including myself!, I always begin with the testing on myself, so I more clearly know how to transition others more successfully. It is a skill, veeery much in the developing. Each person can be so different, and environments and environmental factors can be tricky.
Keeps me on my toes.
Casey
