I had a message from a reader of the site that checks-in often but rarely-if-ever-comments asking if I could post more of my vegan food creations. She mentioned that she enjoys the other daily living posts but missed the vegan foods I use to post. No Problemo! The reason I haven't been adding as many to the site is because I haven't been all that creative in the kitchen as of late. I have been throwing together a bunch of things or referring back to old favorites. BUT...here are some random foods I haven't posted about yet. First up is this Vegan Cheese Sauce. It turned out WONDERFULLY! I can't wait to make more! And YES...I poured it over top of Grits!
Here's the Recipe:
2 C Raw Cashews
2 C Raw Cashews
1/2 C Nutritional Yeast
1/2 tea Garlic Powder
1/2 C Almond Milk
1 T SeaClear (Fermented Kelp Chlorella Miso)*
1/2 C Almond Milk
1 T SeaClear (Fermented Kelp Chlorella Miso)*
To purchase SeaClear CLICK HERE. The ingredients include: Organic non-GMO soy and barley miso, raw apple cider vinegar, fermented kelp (Kombu), Chlorella, Tumeric, Black pepper. But you could also just use your favorite Miso, too!
Not too long ago I made some Chickpea Sandwich Spread...with a twist! Here's that recipe:
2 C Chickpeas
1/2 C Dried Cranberries
1/4 C Chopped Walnuts
1/2 T Wildtree Garlic Garlore (or Minced Garlic)
This was tasty, too, and I have found myself craving more. I wasn't sure if I would like the walnuts and cranberries in there but they were REALLY great!
And finally...we had to go to Erie for my husband to see a Crohn's Specialist...afterwards we went for lunch at a place called The Public House. They had some veganizable foods on their menu which was very neat and I opted for this. It's one of their pizzas that I had them 'hold' the cheese on. The other ingredients I kept on were the baked pears, onions, walnuts, and balsamic and it was pretty darn awesome! I've never had anything quite like it but I would LOVE to have it again!
The sauce and chickpea spread look great! So does the pizza, yum!
ReplyDeleteI've never had anything quite like that pizza! Glad I choose it. Almost went with the veggie 'boli that I could veganize...might try that next time. Their hummus is good, too, but a bit too much oil on top.
DeleteI've made garbanzo bean spreads before. Later this year, I'm going to experiment with a fermented garbanzo bean paste.
ReplyDeleteI bet that would be wonderful! Sort of like a Miso???
DeleteThis sounds delicious. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays/

DeleteVegan cheese sauce makes everything more delicious!
ReplyDeleteLove the sound of your chickpea spread - different to add the sweetness of dried fruit But I reckon i would love it :D
Thanks! I wasn't sure about the flavor combo for the Chickpea Salad but I ended up really loving it! A great surprise! I love to tinker with vegan cheese sauces. I have another one that I recently did and it turned out great AND it was RAW :)
