Corn Bread

10/20/2020

0 Comments

 
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 batches flax egg (1 1/2 Tbsp flaxseed meal + 4 Tbsp water as original recipe is written)
  • 3/4 cups unsweetened plain almond milk (plus 1 Tbsp)
  • ​1 tsp lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/3 cup vegan butter, melted (I like Earth Balance)*
  • 1/2 cup organic cane sugar or granulated sugar
  • 2 Tbsp unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 3/4 cups fine yellow cornmeal (plus 1 Tbsp )
  • 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour* (plus 1 Tbsp)

​Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish (adjust number/size of baking dish if altering batch size).
  2. Prepare flax egg in a small bowl and let set for a few minutes to achieve an "eggy" texture. Measure out almond milk and add lemon juice and let curdle for a few minutes. Then add baking soda and stir once more. Set aside.
  3. To a large mixing bowl, add melted butter and sugar and whisk vigorously to combine. Then add applesauce, flax egg, and whisk once more. Next add almond milk mixture and whisk vigorously again to combine.
  4. Next add salt, cornmeal, flour and stir with a spoon until just incorporated. It will look thin and somewhat lumpy. That's what you're going for.
  5. Add batter to prepared dishes and bake for 28-37 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into a center comes out clean.

  • ¼ cup onion, diced
  • ¼ cup celery, diced
  • ¼ cup carrot, diced

  • 1 tbsp fresh herbs (recipe flavor profile)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • ​¼ cup apple cider vinegar
  • 4 cups mineral broth
  • 1 cup tofu (silken preferred)

Instructions
  1. Heat a large pot over low to medium heat.  Add the seeds in and toast until fragrant (about 3 minutes).
  2. Add the olive oil over low to medium heat.  Once heated, add the onion, celery, carrot.  Saute for 3 minutes.  
  3. ​​Add the garlic, ginger, and turmeric.  Saute for 3 minutes.
  4. Put the veggies into the pot along with the herbs, salt, and pepper.  Turn the heat to high and stir everything together well for one minute.
  5. Add the apple cider vinegar and scrape the bottom of the pot to remove any sticky bits. Cook for 2 minutes.
  6. Slowly pour in the mineral broth.  Turn the heat up to high and stir.  Bring to a boil and then immediately reduce to a low simmer.  Crumble the tofu and add it to the soup. Simmer for 20 minutes.  Stir frequently.

Strawberry banana nice cream

7/1/2020

0 Comments

 
​Ingredients
  • 4 bananas frozen (break into chunks before freezing)
  • 2 tablespoons almond butter
  • 1 cup strawberries sliced
  • 1 piece split and scraped vanilla bean or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
  1. Combine the bananas and almond butter in a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Add the strawberries and vanilla and pulse to mix well, leaving a few solid bits of strawberry throughout. Transfer the nice cream to an airtight container and freeze for 30 minutes for a soft texture or for 1 to 2 hours for a firmer texture. If the nice cream becomes too hard to scoop, let it stand at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Change It Up
  1. Omit the strawberries and use peanut butter instead of almond butter
  2. Replace the strawberries with pitted fresh or frozen cherries
  3. Replace the strawberries with cocoa powder 
    ​
TIP: Keep a stash of ripe banana chunks in the freezer to make delicious soft-serve nice cream (and smoothies) in minutes.

mediterranean baked sweet potatoes

6/8/2020

0 Comments

 
Ingredients
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes* (~140 g each)
  • 1 15-ounce (425 g) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • ​1/2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp each cumin, coriander, cinnamon, smoked (or regular) paprika​​
  • optional: Pinch of sea salt or lemon juice
Garlic Herb Sauce
  • 1/4 cup (60 g) hummus (or tahini)
  • juice of 1/2 lemon (~1 Tbsp)
  • 3/4 - 1 tsp dried dill (or sub 2-3 tsp fresh)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced (1 1/2 Tbsp or 9 g)
  • Water or unsweetened almond milk to thin
  • optional: Sea salt to taste (I didn’t need any)
Toppings (optional)
  • 1/4 cup (45 g) cherry tomatoes, diced
  • 1/4 cup (15 g) chopped parsley, minced
  • 2 Tbsp (30 ml) lemon juice
  • Chili garlic sauce
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and line a large baking sheet with foil.
  2. Rinse and scrub potatoes and cut in half length wise. This will speed cooking time. Otherwise leave whole and bake longer (approximately double the time (45 min - 1 hour).
  3. Toss rinsed and drained chickpeas with olive oil and spices and place on a foil-lined baking sheet.
  4. Rub the sweet potatoes with a bit of olive oil and place face down on the same baking sheet (or another baking sheet depending on size).
  5. While the sweet potatoes and chickpeas are roasting, prepare your sauce by adding all ingredients to a mixing bowl and whisking to combine, only adding enough water to almond milk to thin so it’s pourable. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more garlic for more zing, salt for savoriness, lemon juice for freshness, and dill for a more intense herb flavor. I found mine didn’t need anything else.
  6. NOTE: If you don’t have hummus, tahini (which you can DIY!) will make a great base substitution for the sauce - just adjust the seasonings to accommodate the lack of flavor tahini provides.
  7. Also prepare the parsley-tomato topping by tossing tomato and parsley with lemon juice and setting aside to marinate.
  8. Once sweet potatoes are fork tender and the chickpeas are golden brown - roughly 25 minutes - remove from oven.
  9. For serving, flip potatoes flesh-side up and smash down the insides a little bit. Then top with chickpeas, sauce and parsley-tomato garnish. Serve immediately.
