< Back Holiday Mashed Potatoes Prep Time: 30 Cook Time: 1 hour Serves: 10 Level: Beginner Plus About the Recipe Ingredients 1 head garlic 1 lb yukon gold potatoes 1 lb russet potatoes 2 tsp salt 3/4 cup plant milk of choice 6 Tbs vegan butter 2 Tbs white miso paste 1 tsp black pepper, freshly cracked Preparation Prep Remove butter from the fridge to soften. Remove the outer layers of the garlic head and then slice off a thin layer off the top to expose the skin of the cloves. Rub the exposed cloves with a bit of olive oil. Wrap in parchment paper and then in foil to make a packet, and then place in the oven at 400°F for 35-45 minutes until soft and tender and lightly golden. Make If you choose, peel the potatoes and then rinse them in cold water. Chop the potatoes into fourths. Place the potatoes in a large Dutch oven and add enough water to cover them. Add 1 tbsp of the kosher salt and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, and then cook until the potatoes are fork-tender and very soft when poked, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander. Then return the potatoes back to the pot. Heat over low heat for a few minutes, tossing the potatoes around to prevent them from sticking. This removes any remaining moisture in the potatoes. Once the butter is softened, place it in a small bowl and add the miso paste. Using a fork, cream them together until well combined. Heat a small or medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the miso butter and stir to combine. Once it’s almost melted, pour in the lite coconut milk. Whisk often to combine and stir until melted. Add a bit of freshly cracked black pepper. Keep the mixture on low heat to stay warm until you’re ready to add to the potatoes. Grab a large bowl. If you are using a ricer, add the potatoes to the ricer and pass them through into a large bowl. Then add the warm miso butter-coconut milk combo and fold gently with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon. Taste for seasonings and add a bit more kosher salt, as needed, and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Previous Next

< Back Creamy White Bean & Bok Choy Soup Prep Time: 20 min Cook Time: 30 min Serves: 4 Level: Beginner About the Recipe This recipe is adapted from Rainbow Plant Life Ingredients ▢1 generous tablespoon olive oil* ▢1 large sweet onion (or yellow onion or leek), diced ▢3 sticks of celery, diced ▢3 medium carrots, diced ▢6 garlic cloves, chopped finely ▢½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes ▢3 ½ cups (840 mL) low-sodium vegetable broth** ▢1 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste ▢Freshly cracked black pepper to taste ▢ Bouquet garni : 2 bay leaves + 1 large sprig of sage + 1 large or 2 small sprigs rosemary, tied tightly together with kitchen twine*** ▢1 medium Yukon gold potato (about 6 ounces or 170g), peeled and finely diced ▢2 (15-ounce/425g) cans of cannellini beans, drained and rinsed (or 3 1/2 cups cooked cannellini beans) ▢1 (14 ounce/400g) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped finely (optional) 12 ounces bok choy ▢Good-quality extra virgin olive oil (for finishing) Gremolata ▢1 loosely packed cup (12g) Italian flat-leaf parsley leaves ▢½ loosely packed cup (8g) fresh basil leaves ▢2 large garlic cloves, left whole and peeled ▢2 medium lemons (I prefer organic since we're using the peel) ▢Coarse or flaky sea salt Preparation Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion, celery, and carrots, along with a pinch or two of salt. Cook until the vegetables are softened and starting to just turn brown, 6-9 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook another 1-2 minutes until very fragrant. Pour in the vegetable broth and deglaze the pot, stirring up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Add the 1 teaspoon kosher salt, black pepper to taste, bouquet garni, potatoes, cannellini beans, and artichokes (if using). Stir well. Bring the soup to a boil. Then reduce heat, cover the pot, and simmer the soup for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. While the soup is simmering, make the Gremolata . Finely chop the parsley and basil. Using a microplane, grate the garlic directly over the parsley and basil. Then zest the lemons on top of this mixture, taking care to not zest the white pith underneath the skin. Mix the garlic and lemon zest into the herbs and chop the herbs until they’re finely minced. Sprinkle with a bit of the coarse or flaky sea salt. Transfer half of the soup to a stand blender and blend until thick and smooth. Then return this pureed soup back to the pot and stir to incorporate. One-pot option: Remove bouquet garni and use an immersion blender throughout half of the soup, but be sure to not blend it all – you want to retain some texture. Add the kale to the soup and simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the kale is tender but still bright green. Taste for seasonings, adding more salt as needed. When the soup is done, remove the bouquet garni. Serve the soup in bowls and sprinkle a generous amount of the Gremolata over each bowl and a drizzle of the extra virgin olive oil. If storing leftovers, add the gremolata to a jar, drizzle some olive oil in there, and refrigerate. Spoon this over leftover soup. Previous Next

< Back Baked Plantain Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes Serves: 2-4 Level: Beginner About the Recipe To optimize this dish, be sure to select ripe plantains. It should have many black spots and be slightly soft to the touch. I love plantain and it is often served as a fried side dish in many Nigerian dishes. However, I wanted to capture to texture of fried plantain without all of the oil. So, this recipe minimally coats the plantain slices in coconut oil and baked. I have found this approach to be ideal as it is a comparable mouth-feel to fried plantain. After baking, I like to take things up a notch by tossing the plantain in a bit of coconut nectar. This last step is optional but totally worth it. Ingredients 2 ripe plantains, sliced on bias 2 Tbs coconut oil 1 tsp cinnamon, ground 1/2 tsp salt 1 Tbs coconut nectar, optional Preparation Prep Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Make In a bowl, add coconut oil, cinnamon and salt. Mix thoroughly. Peel and slice the plantains into 1/2 inch slices, cut on a bias. Add to bowl and toss well. On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange the plantain in a single layer. Bake for 20 minutes, turning halfway until plantains are golden brown In the same bowl, add the coconut nectar to the remaining coconut oil and mix well. Once plantains are finished baking, gently toss in the oil and nectar mixture. Serve immediately. Previous Next

< Back Red Lentil Curry Prep Time: 10 min Cook Time: 35 min Serves: 4 Level: Beginner About the Recipe Ingredients 1 Tbs coconut oil 4 garlic cloves, minced 2 5411/25000 Tbs ginger, grated 1 Tbs turmeric, freshly grated (or 1 tsp of ground turmeric) 2 serrano peppers, diced (remove seeds to dampen spice level) 1 tsp cumin, ground 1/2 tsp coriander, ground 1 tsp chili powder 2 tsp curry powder 1 tsp garam masala 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 1 cup red lentils 2 cup vegetable broth 14 oz crushed tomatoes, canned 13 1/2 oz coconut milk, canned 3 Tbs almond butter, unsweetened 1/2 lemon, juiced 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped Preparation Prep Rinse lentils under cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside. Make Heat a large, deep skillet or large saucepan over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the garlic, ginger, fresh turmeric (if using), and Serrano pepper and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent garlic from burning. Add the cumin, coriander, chili powder, curry powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper to taste, and cook for 30 to 60 seconds until fragrant, tossing frequently to prevent burning. If using ground turmeric instead of fresh turmeric, add the ground turmeric now, along with the rest of the spices. Pour in the vegetable broth, and use a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Add in the lentils and the crushed tomatoes and mix well. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pan with a lid. Simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the lentils are cooked through and have mostly softened. If you find that the lentils are not quite soft after 25 minutes, add a few spoons more of broth or water and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove the lid and stir in the coconut milk, almond butter, along with salt and pepper to taste Continue cooking on low heat, uncovered for 5 to 8 minutes, until the curry has thickened and is creamy. Finally, stir in the lemon juice and cilantro, and turn off the heat. If you want your lentils to be even creamier and more on the puréed side, use an immersion blender to lightly purée the curry. Serve the curry with rice and/or Indian flatbread and garnish with additional cilantro. Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days. Previous Next
