- Drink Your Way to CLEAR SKIN | The Naija Goddess
< Back Drink Your Way to CLEAR SKIN Prep Time: 10 Minutes Cook Time: N/A Serves: 1 Level: Beginner About the Recipe At some point in life, we have all had an acne breakout and they are no fun. If acne is a recurring problem for you, these 3 drinks will help relieve the root cause of acne. Acne is caused by something blocking the follicles. Typically, it is a buildup of harmful bacteria, yeast and/or candida within the digestive tract. It is also attributed to hormonal imbalances. So taking birth control pills and antibiotics add to this issue. Eating processed foods that contain refined sugars and hydrogenated oils are certainly causative. And perhaps a lesser-known fact is drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water. All of the aforementioned can increase the growth of bad bacteria, yeast, and candida within the body. Ingredients 16oz carrot juice 2 tsp EVOO 1000mg turmeric high ORAC 2 garlic cloves Drink 2x in same day. Double recipe. Sip the juice as a meal over 20-30 minutes Preparation Run everything through a juicer and store in a glass jar. Drink immediately or place in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Previous Next

- Rasta Pasta | The Naija Goddess
< Back Rasta Pasta Prep Time: 20 min Cook Time: Serves: 8 Level: About the Recipe Ingredients Prepping Soy Curls or Jackfruit 1 cup dried soy curls (or 12-16 oz of other similar texture protein) 1 tablespoon kelp powder (or a few sheets crushed nori) 1 tablespoon lime juice 1 tablespoon soy sauce 2 cups boiling water (more as needed) Seasoning Soy Curls or Jackfruit 1 tablespoon jerk seasoning (see post for recipe) 2 teaspoons dried parsley 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning (buy it) 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper The Sauce 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 medium red pepper, sliced (about 2 cups worth) 1 medium green pepper, sliced 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular) 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 28 ounces canned coconut milk (Sold in 14 oz cans ) 1/2 cup shredded vegan mozzarella (see blog for brand details) 1/2 cup shredded vegan parmesan 1/2 cup shredded vegan jack (or gouda, or more mozzarella ) 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro 1 tablespoon chopped green onion tops Preparation Prep the Soy Curls or Jackfruit In a bowl, whisk together the kelp powder, lime juice, soy sauce, and boiling water. Stir in the dried soy curls or jackfruit and let sit while you prep the remaining ingredients. They only need to soak for about 5-10 minutes. Once ready to use. Stir the soy curls or jackfruit in the remaining liquid. Drain the excess liquid from the bowl but don't rinse the soy curls or jackfruit. Measure Everything This recipe comes together fast so it's important to prep all the ingredients. Measure the spices for the soy curls or jackfruit into one bowl. Measure the sauce spices in a bowl. Open the cans of coconut milk. Have everything near your stovetop so that you don't have to search out ingredients once you start cooking. Start boiling a pot of water. Roughly 8 cups. Salt the water with 2-3 Tbl of salt. Seems excessive but you're not eating all that salt and it makes a huge difference in terms of the flavor of the noodles. Cook the Soy Curls or Jackfruit Heat a large, at least 12", non-stick skillet over high heat. Add a drizzle of oil and spread it around the skillet. Add the drained soy curls or jackfruit. Cook for 5 minutes, flip, cook for an additional 5 minutes. Add the soy curl or jackfruit spice blend, flip to coat, then return the now cooked soy curls or jackfruit to the bowl you used to soak them. Set aside. Start boiling your noodles at this stage. Cook to al dente, the time will be listed on the package, so that they still have a little bite to them. Put it All Together! Pour the 2 Tbl of olive oil into your non-stick skillet (or pot), heat over medium-high, add the peppers and garlic. Stir and then let sit for 1-2 min to lightly char one side of the peppers. Add in the sauce spices, stir to coat the peppers. Pour in half of the coconut milk. Bring to a low simmer and stir in half of the cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted. Pour in the remaining coconut milk, simmer, then stir in the remaining cheese. You can save some cheese to top at the end or just mix it all into the sauce. Stir in half of the cooked soy curls or jackfruit. Stir in the cooked noodles and completely coat with the sauce. Fold in the remaining soy curls and turn heat to low and cook for 10 min. Top with the green onion and cilantro. I also like adding a few cracks of pepper. Serve, enjoy, and savor each bite. Previous Next

- Chocolate Salted Caramel Tart | The Naija Goddess
< Back Chocolate Salted Caramel Tart Prep Time: 10 min Cook Time: n/a Serves: 14 Level: Beginner About the Recipe Ingredients Base 250 g cashew nuts (1 cup) 150 g dates (2/3) 2 tbsp coconut oil Caramel 300 g dates {1 1/4 cup) 150 g smooth peanut butter or almond butter (2/3 cup) 60 g coconut oil (1/2 cup) 6-10 tbsp water Chocolate topping 300 g chocolate (1 1/4 cup) 4 tbsp coconut oil Preparation Base Layer In a food processor, blend the cashew nuts for 1-2 minutes until they resemble a flour-like consistency. Add the dates and coconut oil, and continue blending for 2-3 minutes until the mixture begins to come together. Line an 8-inch (20cm) springform cake tin with baking parchment. Press the base mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the tin. For easier spreading, place a sheet of baking parchment over the mixture and use the back of a spoon to press it down evenly. Caramel Layer In the same food processor, add all caramel layer ingredients. Blend until smooth and caramel-like in texture, about 5-10 minutes. If the mixture is too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time until it reaches a smooth, spreadable consistency. Spread the caramel evenly over the base layer, aiming for a smooth top surface. Using a layer of baking parchment over the caramel and a spoon to spread it out can help achieve an even finish. Chocolate Layer Melt the chocolate and coconut oil together using a double boiler (bain-marie) until smooth. Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel layer, spreading evenly to cover. Place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate has fully set. Finishing Touches Sprinkle with coarse salt flakes for a salted caramel finish. Use a hot knife to slice through the cake for clean cuts without cracking the chocolate layer. Serve and enjoy! Previous Next
