Going green shouldn't be so tough. A modern day approach for the vegan curious, vegetarian or lifelong vegan who needs to simply their life while eating a plant based diet.
This is by far my favorite vegan ranch! I dare all you non-vegan foodies to give it a whirl. You won't be disappointed. You can find it at your local Whole Foods market. In Denver, check out NOOCH Vegan Market.
2 cans (15.5-oz) garbanzo beans; (chickpeas), drained with liquid reserved
2 teaspoons cumin powder
1/2 teaspoon sumac
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon fresh garlic; pressed
1/3 cup tahini
4 whole chipotle chiles in adobo sauce; (use more or less to taste)
2 teaspoons adobo sauce from can, seeds removed; (use more or less to taste)
How to make it
Puree all ingredients except bean liquid in a food processor. Gradually add the minimum amount of chickpea liquid required to give the mixture a thick, creamy, smooth consistency. Blend until all graininess is gone. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour. If the consistency is thincker then you would like, add a little bit of water. For presentation, top with olive oil and cilantro should you desire.
Please note: Using 4 chiles makes the hummus mildly spicy
Banana muffins are a very easy muffin for vegans to make because the banana can act as a binder and provide moisture instead of eggs. So you don't needs eggs or even egg-replacer!
Ingredients:
3 very ripe bananas
1/4 cup oil or vegan margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Preparation:
Pre-heat oven to 360 degrees.
In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork till soft. Add the oil or vegan margarine and sugar and cream together.
In a separate bowl, combine together the flour, salt, and baking soda. Combine with the banana mixture, stirring gently just to combine.
Grease or line a muffin pan, and fill each muffin about 2/3 full with batter. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean.
