Green Boost Shake

Ingredients:

1 bag fresh baby spinach
1/2 can frozen orange juice (we use the extra pulp kind)
2 or 3 ripe bananas
2 cups of ice (more or less depending on how slushy you like it)
1/2 cup soy milk or silken tofu (optional) to add a creamy-ness

Directions:

This recipe is oh so easy and the kids go nuts for it.

in a blender add spinach, orange juice, bananas, and soy milk/tofu if you choose to use, blend well add ice till you get the desired consistency. (I use a ton of ice because the kids like it like a frozen dessert.) Pour and enjoy!

*Other great juice options are apple, cran apple, white grape, pineapple, and grapefruit (may need honey or sugar if grapefruit is used)

*Other fruits we’ve thrown in the mix were blueberries, strawberries, seedless grapes,

Also makes great ice cream too!

But beware it is not the prettiest drink and a few of my friends refuse to even try it but once I talk them into it they are in love!

Makes: 8 servings, Preparation time: 5 minutes

Basic Chocolate “Buttercream” Frosting

Ingredients :

7 tablespoons vegan butter (I use Earth Balance)
3-5 tablespoons cocoa powder
4-5 cups confectioner sugar

Directions:

Allow butter to soften.

Add sugar and cocoa.

Mix.

Add a little hot water or hot milk (rice, soy, almond, etc..,any kind will do)

Beat until smooth.

Ice and refrigerate to harden.

You can adjust the amounts of both sugar and cocoa to affect how thick and how chocolate-y you want the frosting to be.

Source of recipe: This is a spin I did off of my mom’s traditional chocolate butter-cream she uses on German’s chocolate cake. It’s super easy and delicious.

Makes: enough to frost a round cake from a 9″ pan, Preparation time: 5-10 minutes

PB cookies made with natural peanut butter?

Has anyone made PB cookies with natural peanut butter ???

I make our own PB, and love PB cookies but all the recipes I see say not to use ‘natural’ style, just the regular creamy store bought stuff.  Any recipe suggestions would be appreciated.

My fav cookie of all time was a flourless PB cookie with just PB, sugar, eggs, butter and vanilla.  Not healthy, but made a killer cookie.  I can use EB, but don’t know what to do about the eggs.

Darn. :)

PLT Sandwich

Ingredients:

whole grain bread
potato chips
tomato
lettuce
vegan mayo
avocado (optional)

Directions:

If you have a person who misses BLT’s then this is the recipe for you. The crunch and saltiness of the layer of potato chips makes this a yummy treat, if not the healthiest of options. Toast two slices of whole grain bread. On them place veganaisse, tomato, lettuce and a layer of potato chips (I prefer the kettle chip brand). You can add avocado if you wish for a PLTA. Simple and yummy!

Source of recipe: I made this to soothe a BLT missing boy.

Makes: 1 yummy sandwich, Preparation time: 10 minutes
