What Vegans Eat – Day 571

Breakfast: This was an Aquafaba sort of day. You’ve heard of Aquafaba? Sure you have. Aquafaba is the water you find in a can of beans like chick peas or cannellini. When whipped into a frenzy it becomes meringue, the perfect vegan, cruelty-free, environmentally-friendly replacement for egg whites. When we were in Northern California for…

Vegan Coconut Meringue Pie, Gluten-Free

  With Aquafaba, vegan meringue is as easy as pie. Auafaba is the liquid from one 15 ounce can of garbanzo beans. We recommend buying the unsalted cans. We use the leftover cooking water from cooking dried garbanzo beans. We freeze this leftover water to have it on hand as needed. Aquafaba whips best when…

Apple Turnovers

  We fell in love with Fruit Turnovers with our afternoon tea when we were in Northern California and frequented the Big Basin Café in Saratoga. Here is our version which I love even more. The dough is lighter in flavor and texture and it’s gluten-free!   4 organic apples (other fruit may be used…

They were sweet, crunchy and very satisfying.   Tea and…

What Vegans Eat – Day 567

Breakfast: I wanted cold cereal and milk. I know a lot of people love cold cereal anytime of the day or night. I made Coconut Milk with Let’s Do Organic Coconut Cream. We blend it with three cups water, which is more than recommended on the box but we like it best this way, plus…
