Pasta Chips

I love these things hope you do too.

Homemade Potato Chips

Take a potato and slice it as thinly as possible (hard to do, but easier with a good knife). Then you spray a microwavable plate with non-stick spray, arrange the slices on it, not touching each other, and then microwave them until they start to turn brown around the edges (can take around 10 minutes, […]

Dry-Roasted Soybeans (“Soynuts”) And Chick-Peas

Keep a supply of both of these on hand in the freezer to use for snacks or in recipes in place of nuts and seeds.

Chickpea Snack

Chickpea Snack Submitted by: Shelley G. Chickpeas are such a great food. I like to mix canned chickpeas with lime juice, fresh cilantro, garlic, and cumin (or chili powder). It’s a great snack and makes a refreshing salad if you chill it and serve it with romaine lettuce and tomato wedges.

Baked Oatmeal

There are probably a dozen or more variations of baked oatmeal floating around the Internet and in various cookbooks. This is the variation I used.

Rice-Sesame Crackers

My four year old daughter LOVED these. So did I, for that matter

Bryanna’s Vegan Pumpkin Pie

I don’t like pumpkin pie made with tofu-no one ever suspects this one doesn’t have eggs. One caution-MAKE THIS THE DAY BEFORE SERVING. It’s needs a day to set really well, I find. This is a spicy filling.

Date-Nut Pop-ems

Though technically this is far from fat-free, here’s a recipe that lots of people on Eat to Live use as a treat (it’s also great for kids). Dr. Fuhrman warns that 3 of these have about 100 calories, so use them responsibly!

French Toast

This is the basic recipe I started out using many years ago, but since then I kind of “wing it” and probably use more nutritional yeast than flour.

Potato Gatto

Here’s a blog recipe from 2008 that’s worth trying again. Potato Gatto is a layered potato casserole that can be adapted any number of ways.

Strix’s Brawcamole

I like this when I’m craving guacamole. If you have a hard time with raw broccoli, this may be a good recipe to try. If you are used to raw foods, I think you will enjoy this; however, you can try it with cooked (see notes).

Banana-Date-Walnut Muffins

Makes 12 muffins

Vegetable Sushi Rolls

Make delicious sushi easily using your choice of healthy ingredients!

Cajun 15-Bean Soup

Delicious and hearty! Serve with biscuits and green salad. Great as leftovers and freezes well.

Beet Sweet Potato Soup

Put water, broth, VegeBase, carrot and celery juice in a pot and simmer. Grate beets and onions with food processor and add to the pot. Then add the bite-sized pieces of sweet potato and the sliced greens. Cook on low heat for one hour. Blend half the soup, leaving some chunky parts, so it becomes creamy, yet hearty.
