Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1-2 cans chickpeas (garbanzo beans) amount depends on how hungry you are!
• 1/2-1 onion, finely chopped*
• 1-3 stalks celery, as desired
• s pinch of fresh, minced garlic
• salt/fresh ground pepper to taste
• 1 Tablespoon Nayonaise

Directions:

* If you want to take ‘the edge’ off the onions, you can put them
in a little container with some water and microwave them for 2-4 minutes.

Open cans of chickpeas, drain and rinse well. Put chickpeas in a bowl
and “smash” them up well (do NOT puree).

Add all other ingredients, stirring well & enjoy now or
refrigerate until needed.

Can be used as sandwich filler, or on a bed of spinach,
garnished with shredded carrots, cucumber sliced and fresh,
diced tomatoes, as a main course.

Try different variations of this dish by adding your
favorite herbs & spices, fresh garden vegetables, etc.

Serves: 2-3

Preparation time: 5-10 minutes

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 3/4 cup warm vegan soymilk
• 1/4 cup vegan sugar
• 1/4 tsp.salt
• 1/4 cup veg. oil
• 1/4 cup warm water
• 1 pkg. yeast
• 3 cups flour (bread flour if you can find it)
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamon (optional)
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/4 cup lemon and/or orange rind (optional)

Directions:

This is a fairly simple sweet vegan bread recipe that is oh so good in the morning or in the
afternoon with a cup of coffee. I’ve seen my grandfather in Germany make this, but he
never uses measurements. I personally need them!

Stir vegan sugar, salt and oil into warm milk. Put yeast into bowl and add warm water (from
faucet). Add lukewarm soy milk mixture, 2 cups flour & cardamon. Beat until smooth. Add
the rest of flour and start to knead on floured counter top until elastic. Put in a
greased bowl, turning greased side up. Cover, let rise until doubled, ~ 1 hr. (** If it
is winter, put bowl on oven set at a low temp — warm to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. This
will help it rise faster. *BE PATIENT* The more it rises, the lighter and yummier
it’ll be). Shape into oblong shape, place onto a greased baking sheet. Brush with a
little oil, cover, let rise until doubled ~45 min. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. At this
point I have to try not to eat entire loaf! I always double recipe and freeze a loaf.

Yield: 1 loaf.

wait.

Crumble mixture onto ungreased cookie

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1 banana, sliced
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup coconut milk or light coconut milk
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds
• vegan maple syrup

Directions:

This recipe couldn’t be easier, and it’s
one of my favorite breakfasts. I used
to make it with honey, and the milk and
honey connection gave me the idea for
its name. But it’s just as good with
vegan maple syrup.

Combine the sliced banana and coconut
milk in a bowl. Top with chopped nuts
and drizzle with vegan maple syrup. Adjust
amounts to your liking.
