Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 3 1/2 cups oats (quick or old fashioned)
- 1 1/2 cups powdered soymilk
- 4 scoops vanilla soy protein
- vegan equivalent of two eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup sugar-free vegan maple syrup (any vegan sweetener will do)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
In a large bowl, mix together oats,
soy milk and soy protein. In a medium
bowl, whisk together remaining
ingredients. Pour wet ingredients
over dry and mix with a wooden spoon
until uniformly moist. The batter
will be very thick like stiff cookie
dough.
Dump into a 9X12 baking pan that has
been greased with non-stick cooking
spray (or marg, whatever you have) and
spread into an even layer. The dough
will be stiff and hard to work with
but effort will pay off
Bake in oven for 15 minutes or so, or
until lightly brown around the edges.
The dough will not change shape at all
during the baking process. Allow to
cool for 10 minutes before cutting
into 10 individual bars. Wrap each
bar individually and store in the
refrigerator for a quick snack anytime.
Note: This is a basic recipe that can
easily be altered. They are not sweet
so dried fruit and nuts will turn
these into a sweet treat. If you wish
to increase the protein content, just
replace some of the soy milk with
equal amounts of soy protein.
Additional water may be needed. The
finished product should be very chewy
and thick like a dense brownie. They
are very satisfying and very healthy.
Great for athletes. Enjoy!

grams fat, 27 carbs(3 grams vegan sugar), 4

Serves: 10
Preparation time: 20-25 mins
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- All ingredients should be Raw and Organic.
- “Nuts”:
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 cup pecans
- 1 cup pistachios
- 1/2 cup cashews
- 1/2 cup tomato juice (organic)
- Produce:
- 7 stems fresh parsley
- 2 carrots
- 2 stalks celery
- 1/3 onion
- 1/2 bell pepper
- 1 clove fresh garlic
- Herbs: (These are dried and not irradiated, but you use the fresh equivalent too.)
- 1 tablespoon basil
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon tarragon
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
Directions:
Place all “Nuts” in a glass
bowl. Add organic tomato juice and stir.
Let soak 2 to 4 hours. Puree all
ingredients in a food processor,
stopping to stir midway through.
Blending is easier if you start with the
Produce, add Herbs, then Nuts last–DO
NOT DRAIN NUTS.
Make patties or bars out of combined
mixture. Make them as thin as possible
and place in food dehydrator and dry for
12-24 hours (or until dry). Turn patties
midway through.
If you do not have a dehydrator, preheat
oven on lowest setting (mine was 170
degrees) and dry for 5 to 6 hours. Patty
up the mixture, and place it on cookie
sheets lined with paper towel. This
helps them dry and not stick. Turn them
over after 2 or 3 hours. If you like
your bars really crisp (like me) it
would be good to check them near the end
and see if they need more time.
Enjoy healthy treats on the run!

- 1 box of vegan brown sugar
Directions:
1) slice yellow w/browned plantains
chip style while heating a pot of
chosen oil to bubbling point…
*note - plantains shouldn’t be
squishy/too soft so you can slice them
proplerly - since they don’t slice
well/fry well…
2) when oil is to bubbling point pour
in as much vegan brown sugar as you want and
stir well
3) then add the plantains and deep fry
until they’re as deep fried as you want
them to be
*note - the vegan brown sugar will coat each

cooling will become “deep fried candied
plantains”…
Serves: As many as you want

Serves: 4 dozen
Preparation time: 1 hour
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- desired amount of plantain
Directions:
Buy plantains how you love them; (I
love to let them sit and get REALLY
ripe, with black markings on them) the
darker you let them get, the sweeter
them become.
When plantains reach desired
sweetness and/or texture, then cut off
both hard ends & slit/peel partially or
fully. Microwave on half to full power
depending on how much wattage your
microwave has. Cook until skin blackens
or the plantains sizzle/get noisy
[you’ll know when they’re ready. Eat as
banana or use a spoon to eat the lovely
pulpy mush!
