We make the best out of everythingπŸ’―πŸŒ±.. sweet pineapple juice 🍍🍹from pineapple skin, no added sweetener. This time, we had an over ripe one. When this happens, we either freeze the pulp for smoothies or squeeze the pulp and skin in a pot to make juice. We bring the mixture to a boil before taking it off the heat, allowing it to cool before enjoying. πŸ‘ŒπŸ˜ŽπŸ’―πŸŒ±πŸ

Back to school lunches. Getting the plant protein and fiber back in with lentil spaghetti, steamed garlic greens and broccoli. I roasted a bulb of garlic last night with our sweet potatoes and squeezed that into the steamed greens. Yumm πŸ‘ŒπŸ½πŸ’―πŸŒΏ

When i make spaghetti with lentils, I always make the sauce first then I add cooked lentils and some breadcrumbs. I find that the breadcrumbs give a different texture to the dish. Kids love it, so I'm not complaining πŸ˜‹πŸŒΏπŸ’―

Soups made simple πŸ‘ŒπŸ½πŸŒΏ

With plantbased soups it really easy to make. Saute your aromatics and spices (crushed whole garlic, chopped onion, ginger,etc) in a little water. Once translucent, add generous seasoning. Stir well and allow seasoning to release fragrance. The add veges (like chopped carrots, celery, potatoes, pumpkin etc) and stir until water from these vege come out and veges are coated in the seasoning.. (Watch the potatoes, the edges should become a little transparent or lighter). Then add mix bean soup mix or soup mix made of beans, barley, etc. Stir well to incorporate. The add 3 times the water of the soup mix and bring to boil. Reduce heat after boiling until beans are cooked. Find the whole crushed garlic in thesoup and smash them with a fork so thwy jncoroorate jnto the soup. Then, add some more seasoning (with salt to taste) with grated ginger and garlic and stir through some leafy greens or veges like capsicum, long beans, etc.. For that added crunch. Turn off heat and enjoy πŸ˜‹πŸŒΏ

Recipes x 3 πŸ‘‡πŸΎπŸ‘‡πŸΎπŸ‘‡πŸΎ A golden oldie but works every time and it's so versatile. Here's why...from the same mix, you can make a lasagna, lentil wrap filling or bean burger pattie (pic below)... It's absolutely unbelievable! My very own creation and i am sharing with youπŸŒΏπŸ‘ŒπŸ½πŸ˜πŸ’―

You can add to this by using your own imagination like smoked paprika, roasted garlic/capsicum, grated carrots, spices.. Up to you πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½

Basic ingredients:
1-2 x can of crushed tomatoes with mixed herbs
2-3 cups breadcrumbs
1/8 cup corn flour/corn starch
1 large chopped onion
1 x 375g cooked green lentils (I add 1-2 beef style plantbased stock cubes when preparing this ahead of time)
Generous seasoning to taste

Add all ingredients into a bowl.
Variations:
For the bean patties, use only 2 cups of breadcrumbs (at first and if too moist, add more breadcrumbs) and 1 can of tomatoes. Mix, shape into patties, toss in extra breadcrumbs or sesame seeds, then shallow fry in oil until golden brown on either side.

For Lasagna, use 2 cups of breadcrumbs, 2 cans of crushed tomatoes and omit the cornstarch. Mixture should be moist, so it doesn't dry out and spread on sheets like regular lasagna using our white aioli sauce as the white sauce.

For lentil filling in a wrap, use same ingredients as the bean patties but omit the cornstarch. Add a handful of finely chopped red onions in the mix and some finely chopped parsley. Great in burritos, stuffed in pita bread with our white aioli sauce, in a wrap or as a sandwich filling. ( you can also use the burger patties above and crush them into your burrito, wrap or sandwich. Try it!! πŸŒΏπŸ’―πŸ‘ŒπŸ½πŸ˜
