Black Bean and Edamame Salad

Do you go through stages with food? I tend to eat the same meals over and over again for months on end, then suddenly the food I am eating changes to something different and I eat that over and over for months and the cycle repeats. Last Spring when I embarked on my new food journey I found Clean Eating Magazine and quickly fell in love with the whole food recipes.

As I was browsing through the recipes I was drawn to a photo of a black bean and edamame salad in the gluten-free recipe section. I can eat edamame right out of the shells by the handful so imagine my delight upon finding this recipe. I scanned the ingredients for the salad, I loved both the salad ingredients and the simple dressing.

Black Bean & Edamame Salad
Serves 4 | 12 minutes

Adapted from Clean Eating Magazine (March 2012)

Ingredients:

• 1 can (15 ounces ) unsalted black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup fresh or frozen shelled edamame, thawed
• 1 small yellow bell pepper, seeded and diced
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1/3 cup diced red onion

Dressing:

• 1 and 1/2 tablespoons Nutiva Hemp Oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Method:

In a medium bowl, combine beans, tomatoes, edamame, pepper, cilantro and onion. In a small bowl, whisk dressing ingredients until combined. Drizzle over top of bean mixture and toss to combine. Serve immediately.

**The original recipe calls for fresh mozzarella, grape tomatoes, and a small Anaheim pepper. If you like some heat to your food, feel free to substitute the red bell pepper for the Anaheim pepper. Also, if you eat dairy, the mozzarella would be a delightful addition!**

Nutritional Bonus: Edamame are a great source of protein and fiber; just 1 cup of soybeans packs almost 16 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber!

Happy Easter!

What are your plans for Easter? Do you have an Easter Egg hunt? Do you host a big brunch or dinner for your family?

Meyer Lemon Berry Muffins {vegan}

So I’d been seeing all these gorgeous recipes using Meyer lemons all over the blogosphere lately and was lamenting that I would most likely never get a chance to try one of the elusive Meyer lemons. You see, I live in a very small rural town. Most people have never heard of kale or beets or even avocado! To think that I would find a Meyer lemon at the grocery store seemed like a far fetched dream. So I browsed recipes and drooled and dreamed, one day maybe…

Imagine my delight and surprise when I saw a bag of Meyer lemons at the local Wal-Mart! I had to pick one up, there were so many recipes I wanted to try! I began pinning lemon recipes like a crazy lady and finally settled on a bread recipe as the first one to tackle. I was in the mood for muffins so adapted the recipe to my liking.

Meyer Lemon Blueberry Muffins

• 1/4 unsweetened almond milk
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

3. In a large bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest
4. In a medium bowl combine milk, applesauce, sugar, agave and lemon juice.

9. Remove muffins from oven and allow to cool.

Strawberry Goji Muffins with Mini-Chocolate Chips {vegan}

I love muffins! But unfortunately most of the muffins that call my name at the bakery are not so healthy or good for me. Imagine my delight when I bought Let Them Eat Vegan by Dreena Burton and discovered that she had 7 muffin recipes, all vegan and all packed full of nutritious goodness.

As I was browsing the muffin recipes, the Strawberry Goji muffins caught my eye. I recently bought a bag of goji berries and had been tossing them on my salad. Using them in muffins seemed ingenious. Did you know that goji berries are the most nutritionally dense fruit on Earth? It’s true!

They are a member of the nightshade family (Solonaceae), which contains many other common vegetables such as potato, sweet potato, tomato, eggplant, and pepper, as well as some poisonous plants like belladonna and deadly nightshade. Native to the Himalayan Mountains of Tibet and Mongolia, the goji berry is now grown in many other countries as well.

Although they have only been introduced in Western countries in recent years, gojis have been used for thousands of years in Tibet and China, both as a culinary ingredient and medicinally.

Unique among fruits because they contain all essential amino acids, goji berries also have the highest concentration of protein of any fruit. They are also loaded with vitamin C, contain more carotenoids than any other food, have twenty-one trace minerals, and are high in fiber. Boasting 15 times the amount of iron found in spinach, as well as calcium, zinc, selenium and many other important trace minerals, there is no doubt that the humble goji berry is a nutritional powerhouse.

This amazing little superfruit also contains natural anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal compounds. Their powerful antioxidant properties and polysaccharides help to boost the immune system.

Looking over the ingredient list I realized I had every item already at home. Dreena suggested adding dark chocolate chips to the muffins, so of course I did

Strawberry Goji Muffins with Mini-Chocolate Chips
Makes 12 Muffins
Recipe Source: Let Them Eat Vegan by Dreena Burton

Ingredients:

• 1 cup oat flour
• 1 cup sifted spelt flour
• 1/3 cup unrefined sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cardamom (or cinnamon)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup frozen strawberries
• 1/2 cup + 1 to 2 tablespoons plain unsweetened almond milk
• 1/4 cup dried goji berries
• 1/4 pure maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder (I used cornstarch)
• 2 tablespoons neutral-flavored oil, such as grapeseed oil
• 1/4 cup mini-chocolate chips, optional (I used Enjoy Life Brand)

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 425º F, you will lower the temperature to 375º F after the muffins have baked for 5 minutes. I learned this trick from Sally, she calls it her sky-high muffin trick. I highly suggest you try it.
2. In a large bowl, combine the flours, sugar, salt, and cardamom, sifting in the baking powder and baking soda. Stir to mix well.
3. In a blender, combine the strawberries, milk, goji berries, maple syrup, lemon juice, and arrowroot powder (you may want to let these ingredients sit for a few minutes to help soften the goji berries). Puree until fully smooth.
4. Add the blended mixture, as well as the oil, to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined. Fold in the mini-chocolate chips.
5. Spoon the batter into lined muffin tins, you want to fill them all the way to the top in order to achieve your high-domed muffin tops.
6. If desired, sprinkle some whole goji berries, sugar, or mini-chocolate chips on top of the muffins.
7. Bake at 425º F for 5 minutes then lower the temperature to 375º F and bake for 14 to 19 minutes, until the muffins are set in the center.
8. Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes in the muffin tins, and then transfer the muffins to cool on a cooling rack.

Have you ever tried goji berries?

Tabbouleh

Last year when I first ventured into the vegan lifestyle I bought a bag of bulgur wheat on whim during one of my trips to the grocery store. It sat in my pantry for several months, I just didn’t know what to do with it.

One day during the summer I came across a recipe for tabbouleh that caught my eye. I decided to try the recipe and it was a hit with both my oldest daughter and myself. I made the tabbouleh as written a couple of times, but the amount of olive oil the recipe called for just did not sit well with me. Then summer turned into fall and winter and tabbouleh is such a fresh summery meal to me that I didn’t give it much more thought.

On my birthday my family took me out to dinner at a local natural eatery called Alladin’s. It was a favorite of mine during my high school vegetarian years so I knew it was a great choice for my birthday dinner celebration. As I was browsing the menu my oldest daughter pointed out that one of the appetizers was tabbouleh! It was served with pita bread and sparked my memory of how much I enjoyed this dish over the summer.

Shortly after my birthday dinner I came across a tabbouleh recipe on one of my favorite vegan blogs, Oh She Glows. I knew it was time to re-make my beloved tabbouleh recipe with less oil and fall in love all over again.

Adapted from: Oh She Glows

Makes 2-3 cups

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup Bulgur Wheat (can substitute another grain if you’d prefer)
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 2-3 cups fresh Italian, chopped finely
• 1 tomato, chopped
• 1/2 cucumber, chopped
• 1 small carrot, chopped finely
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (I had no lemons and used the bottled stuff, it worked fine)
• 1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste

Method:

1. Place vegetable broth in a medium sized pot and bring to a boil. Add in the Bulgur wheat and reduce to simmer for about 20 minutes, or until tender.

2. While the bulgur wheat is simmering, chop all the vegetables and place into a large bowl. Once the bulgur wheat is cooked go ahead and add it into the bowl. Pour on the lemon and extra virgin olive and stir well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3. The tabbouleh may be eaten right away, but the flavors will intensify if allowed to sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

**Tabbouleh will keep in the fridge in a covered container for up to 5 days.**

Cookie Butter Banana Bread {vegan}

Cookie Butter aka Speculoos aka Biscoff Spread is quite possibly the most amazing “butter” ever invented. Slathering some cookie butter on bananas is a scrumptious snack. Banana bread is the best quick bread as far as I’m concerned. So, cookie butter banana bread was an obvious choice for me. This is the.best.banana.bread.EVER! Not even kidding.

** Edited to add: It was brought to my attention by a reader that Trader Joe’s Cookie Butter is NOT vegan. However, Biscoff Spread IS vegan, I suggest using Biscoff for this and any other “cookie butter” recipe.**

Trader Joe’s also has a list of all their vegan products here.

• 1 tablespoon baking powder

2. Mash the bananas and set aside.
3. Mix together the flax meal with almond milk, set aside.

5. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, and salt.
6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet using a spatula and mix until just combined. Do not over mix!

Dinner Menu for the Week of March 4th, 2013

When I posted my weekly dinner menu last week I received a lot of positive feedback from you guys, thanks so much! Since the post was so popular I am going to share my weekly dinner menu again this week.

On Friday I jot down some ideas for dinner and then get input from my husband and kids then finalize the menu for the following week. I make a grocery list of items I will need after checking the fridge, freezer and cupboards. On Saturday I go to the grocery store to do all my shopping for the week. Sunday is the day that I do all my prep work; washing and cutting up veggies, making snacks for the week, putting casseroles together, etc.

I also plan out my lunches and snacks for the week based on what I will have leftover from dinners. I always bring a big salad with lots of veggies and toppings such as hemp seeds for lunch in addition to leftovers. This week for snacks I have Mineola oranges, bananas, and apples, for fruits. I have peppers, baby carrots and celery with hummus to cover veggies. I also made some buckwheat granola, yum!

Here is this week’s menu:

Monday: Cheesy Chickpea and White Bean Soup from Let Them Eat Vegan by Dreena Burton (page 82)

Tuesday: Mac-Oh-Geez from Let Them Eat Vegan by Dreena Burton (page 164) with green beans

Wednesday: Broccoli and Rice with Tofu Tenders

Thursday: Cauliflower Yellow Lentil Curry with rice and peas

Friday: Make Your Own Pizza Night
