Balanced, simple, delicious. Try it on a sun-dried tomato, spinach, or regular whole-wheat flour tortilla!
This is a classic recipe that we often see at holiday dinners. But what about a version for vegans? I, for one, have always loved green bean casserole and I finally came to the point where I didn’t want to be left out during the holidays. This recipe is very simple to make and the best part is that nothing comes from a can—it’s all fresh! I did try this recipe with canned green beans, but it just didn’t have that crispy texture to it. If you’re wanting to used canned beans, just use 2 cans instead of the 1 lb. of fresh. But try it with fresh beans, it is SO much better. Either way, don’t forget to enjoy your holiday season.
When is the last time you made mashed potatoes without entire spoonfuls of butter? This recipes uses creamy white beans to add a silky texture to the mash, along with a unique flavor to the mash. Try mixing up the flavors by adding more steamed and mashed vegetables, like carrots and parsnips.
Free of refined sugar, grains, gluten, dairy, and eggs, it contains no tricky ingredients and really consists of only two components: a crust made from nuts and cocoa, and a creamy center made from…nuts and cocoa. The entire recipe can be made in a high-speed blender and it’s kind of magical to see the way the ingredients transform into something that tastes so distinctly like German chocolate cheesecake. I won’t deny that this is an incredibly rich cake, so make sure to be mindful of portion sizes!
