bestvegetarianveganrecipes.blogspot.com This is a dessert I never would've dreamt up just a year ago. But ever since I learned how to make chocolate chip cookies with chick peas , I've been experimenting with using them in all sorts of other recipes. In this case, an irresistible marble cheesecake. The more amazing part, besides the use of chick peas in a cheesecake, is the fact that it's actually very easy to make. And unlike traditional cheesecake recipes, it's nearly foolproof. This recipe is egg-free and sugar-free, but not dairy free. Vegan cream cheese would probably work, but I have yet to try it. Ingredients for Filling 1 can chick peas, thoroughly rinsed 1 room temp 8 oz block of cream cheese 2/3 cups allulose 1 1/2 tbls cocoa powder 1 tbl vanilla extract 2 tbls baking powder 1 tsp salt 1-2 tbls almond milk Ingredients for Crust 1 cup old fashioned oats 1/2 cup roasted almonds 1/2 cup allulose 1 tbl almond milk 1.2 tsp salt Make the crust first because i...
Tofu is the perfect vegan base for a variety of creamy sauces and aioili. When you find yourself craving something rich, thick and creamy look no further than a block of tofu. In this case, I made a vegan garlic aioli which I had been jonesing after for quite a while. It's light and fluffy like a typical mayo. It's also creamy and rich too. It's replete with delectable garlicky goodness. It just takes a handful of ingredients and about 15 minutes of your time. Ingredients 1/2 block firm tofu, drained 2 small heads of garlic, plus oil 1/4 cup canola oil 1 tbl white vinegar 1 1/2 tbls salt 2 tsps black pepper Instructions Peel the garlic cloves and place them into a 1 cup microwave safe container. Just barely cover the cloves with oil and microwave for 1 minute. Add all the ingredients to a blender or food processor and puree until fluffy and smooth. Enjoy as a salad dressing, sandwich dressing or mix it with your favorite beans to create a tuna/c...
I'm going to attempt going vegan again. I've always wanted to do it. Ran in to some problems along the way. But I think I finally have it sorted out. I dunno if this has ever happened to anyone else, but fruit was a huge issue. If I don't drink cow's milk I have a hard time digesting raw fruits. The sweeter ones at least. The starchy ones, like banana aren't a problem. It seems obvious it's a digestive issue as cooking the fruit solves it. And cooking breaks down enzymes and aids in the digestive process. Dunno the science behind it. Not exactly. I know that drinking cow's milk, which is full of lactose causes the body to create lactase. This is how our bodies process the lactose in milk. What the heck that has to do with eating an apple or some cantaloupoe, I don't really know. But there is some connection there. At least for my body anyway. I've been off cow's milk and raw fruit for many months now without incident. When I originally went off c...
