Our local co-op makes delicious cookies with cranberries, nuts, and oatmeal. At a $1.39 each it was getting to be an expensive habit, so I tried my hand at making them myself.
This soup is thick and hearty thanks to a secret ingredient -- cashew cream. The carrot and ginger flavors are both prominent. The Italian parsley is a beautiful compliment to the soup both in color and flavor. So very tasty!
Delicious fresh pumpkin pie in a glass – smoothie style. Yum! All of the delicious spices and flavors of pie in less than ten minutes. Who needs the crust? This smoothie is tasty!
Cashew cream is an amazing thing. It is thick and flavorful and can be used in so many recipes. I believe it originally came from the raw food movement, and is a better replacement to dairy cream. No cholesterol and less fat with a rich flavor.
If you haven’t tried tempeh yet, you really should. It is tasty and nutritious. One our favorite kinds is Lightlife Organic Garden Veggie Tempeh. One of these days we’ll get adventurous and make our own, but for now we’ll keep buying it at the co-op.
This sorbet tastes as amazing as it looks. It is also quick and easy to make – only three ingredients! This is my new favorite sorbet made with the vita-mix. Thanks to the generous amounts of strawberries, the texture is thick and smooth. The lime’s tanginess works well with the tart/sweetness from the strawberries. We opted not to add sweetener. If you like it sweet, add a few tablespoons of agave.
