Baked Cauliflower With Tahini Sauce And Raisins – Gluten-free & Plant-based

Nancy Addison — Sun, 07 Jan 2024 00:24:44 +0000

Baked cauliflower is always delicious, but when you add tahini sauce to it, the health benefits soar. Tahini is a sesame butter/paste that is popular in Middle Eastern cuisine.

“Studies show sesamol, a natural chemical found in sesame seeds and sesame oil, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging benefits. Other studies say it also has strong anti-cancer effects. Sesame seeds have more phytosterols than other nuts and seeds.“

Tahini is made of three ingredients: hulled sesame seeds, sesame seed oil, and oftentimes salt. Hulled sesame seeds are normally toasted, and then ground to create a smooth, creamy seed butter with a pourable consistency.

You can make tahini yourself from organic sprouted sesame seeds or toasted sesame seeds. Simply grind the sprouted sesame seeds in a food processor with a little organic extra virgin olive oil, and a tiny bit of mineral-rich salt, until it is smooth and creamy. Sprouting or toasting the sesame seeds makes them more digestible and removes the enzyme inhibitors.

My daughter Amanda taught me the following tahini sauce recipe over Thanksgiving. It is a marvelous way to make cauliflower or leafy greens delectable!

You can serve this sauce over any variety of vegetables or greens that you sauté or steam. It can be served over cooked brown rice or quinoa to make a main dish. Raw vegetables are also good with this sauce. This sauce is gluten-free, vegan, healthy, savory, simple, rich in protein, and delicious!

The tahini sauce with sautéed or steamed vegetables or greens makes a fantastic dish to serve at special group meals, because it accommodates people with special dining requirements.

Nancy Addison — Mon, 11 Jul 2022 18:18:05 +0000

Recently I volunteer taught cooking classes for children at the local library summer camp. They had so much fun making these healthy cookies. They were absolutely delicious! These are more healthy than most health food bars.

This is an easy recipe that takes about 10 min. to make. I use only organic ingredients. This recipe yields about twenty-five 1-inch cookie dough balls.

Ingredients:

1 cup old-fashioned oats

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

1/2 cup ground flax seed

1/2 cup peanut butter or sun butter

1/3 cup raw, unrefined honey

1 tablespoon chia or hemp seeds

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Dye-free sprinkles, for rolling

1 tsp. mineral-rich pink salt (Himalayan or Real are good choices)

Directions

1. Place the oats, chocolate chips, coconut flakes, flaxseed, peanut butter, honey, chia seeds, pink salt, and vanilla in a food processor and pulse until thoroughly combined or you can have the children combine it in a bowl, which is really fun for them.

2. Scoop the dough with a small ice cream scoop then use your hands to roll the mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the sprinkles. Serve or refrigerate in an airtight container.

Super Breakfast Smoothie Recipe For Optimum Health

Nancy Addison — Sun, 12 Mar 2017 13:37:35 +0000

Smoothies can be a symphony of nutrients and fiber! Try this easy, delicous smoothie recipe for optimum health. You can have smoothies as a meal or a snack, or freeze them in popsicle molds and have them as a healthy desert.

I put healthy fat in my smoothies, because my research shows that healthy fat gives us energy, supports our brain health, and helps our body absorb nutrients in fruits and other food more effectively.

Chew on a bite of blueberry or cherry right before you have a smoothie, because it will help prepare your body for digestion.

Serves: One.

Ingredients

1 tbsp. coconut oil

2 tbsp. cold-pressed hemp or flax seed oil

1 scoop Protein Powder (Garden of Life is a good choice, or freshly ground, sprouted hemp seeds.)

2 tbsp. raw organic sprouted seed or nut butter

1-2 tsp. coconut probiotics (from refrigerated section of the grocery store)

1 banana with the skin (Clean the banana, cut off the ends, and cut it into chunks before putting it into the blender. The skin has more nutrients in it than the banana and is high in fiber.)

1 cup berries (cherries, strawberries, wild blueberries or berries of choice)

1 1⁄2 cups organic, vanilla, non-dairy, unsweetened milk (coconut or hemp work well)

Directions

Blend in blender until smooth and creamy.

Drink within 20 minutes for optimum nutrition.

Today, I have been getting ready for my seminar this Sunday! I am so excited! It is going to be fun, interesting and life changing!
I bought so much organic food for my raw food demo and for the complementary lunch! I love giving these workshops. There is so much more to share with people that can’t be shared in a book. They will learn a lot of my secrets that I don’t even put in my book. I also love the group dynamics. With all of my workshops, all the participants get to join my exclusive facebook group, where they can discuss things and stay connected. Now I am off to make sure the outside tables are set up for the outdoor luncheon. I have almost an acre and it is so nice to sit outside for the breaks and the lunch. Well, I will keep you posted on the fabulous event!

Amanda has always loved life and lived it to the fullest!

Today, my daughter is heading off to law school. She has grown up so quickly. She said to me the other day; “mom, where did all the time go? I was just a little girl yesterday.” Life is ever changing. Embrace the change! Live life to the fullest! Be present. Don’t be thinking about problems. Start thinking about what you do want. Focus on the solution! The one thing we can always count on in life is change. Be flexible. Be present. Breathe deeply. Everyday is a new day!
