Blasted Cauliflower with a Lentil Hemp Skirt

12/8/2014

Comments

Just the name, "Lentil Hemp Skirt" sounds exciting!

Have you ever roasted cauliflower? How about a whole head of cauliflower? Now it gets exciting! This results in an incredibly delicious dish with a dramatic presentation. The best part? It is quite easy to make. Skirted with nutrient-packed lentils and hemp seeds, this makes for an easy weeknight dinner or a magnificent appetizer.

Blasted Cauliflower Hemp Lentil Skirt

Ingredients

1 Head of Cauliflower
1/4 Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon Cumin
2 Teaspoons Curry Powder
2 Teaspoons Sea Salt
1-2 Teaspoons Ground Pepper
1 Tablespoon of Garlic Powder (or 1 fresh clove)
1 Cup Cooked Lentils (see tips below)
½ Cup of Hemp Seeds

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C)
Clean cauliflower and cut off bottom stem and leaves.
Make olive oil marinade in large mixing bowl. Mix together olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, cumin, curry power.
Dunk the cauliflower into mixing bowl and use your hands to coat the olive oil evenly over its surface.
Spin cauliflower on its head. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
Place the cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet and roast until the surface is dry and lightly browned, 30 to 40 minutes.
Place cooked cauliflower on large serving dish and create a skirt with the cooked lentils.
Top the lentil skirt with hemp seeds.
Allow cauliflower cool for 10 minutes before cutting it into wedges and serving

Tips and Notes

You may cook your own lentils or purchase cooked at a store. Trader Joe’s has a great selection.
This meal is fantastic for leftovers! (Cold on top of a salad)
The important thing about cooking with any oil (olive or otherwise) is not to heat the oil over its smoke point. The smoke point refers to the temperature at which a cooking fat or oil begins to break down. Generally, the smoke point of olive oil ranges from 220-437°F/104-225° C.

Portobello Tomato Nooch Soup Ⓥ

11/19/2014

Comments

Nutritional yeast is specifically cultivated as a food crop for use as a nutritional supplement and to add flavor to foods. It’s an inactive yeast so unlike baking yeast, it doesn’t make food rise. And it’s not the same as Brewers Yeast, which is a by-product of making beer.

Rich in the B-vitamins: These are the same vitamins we burn when stressed out and when we put our bodies under stress, like a long run or high elevation hike reaching a summit.
Just one tablespoon: Provides a daily serving of most of the B-vitamin complex, which in turn helps us to convert our food (specifically, carbohydrates) into fuel (that is, glucose), which is in turn used to produce energy.
Two tablespoons: Contain 20% of the recommended daily allowance of iron, a biggie for vegans and active lifestyles.
Complete protein source: Includes all the essential amino acids. 2 tablespoons offers 9 grams of protein!

A Vegan Staple: Called many names, including Nooch, Hippie Dust, Nutritional Yeast.

Portobello Tomato Nooch Soup Ⓥ

Ingredients

1lb fresh portobello mushrooms, sliced
½ small brown onion, peeled and diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp coconut oil
3 cups vegetable broth/stock
1 can organic diced tomatoes (undrained)
1 cup cashews
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried rosemary
½ tsp dried oregano

Instructions

Place cashews in a bowl of water and leave to soak.
In a large pot, sauté the mushrooms, onion and garlic in coconut oil for 3 – 5 minutes. Stir frequently.
Reduce heat to medium-low and add the vegetable broth and diced tomatoes.
Cover and allow to simmer for 45 minutes.
Drain and rinse cashews and add them to a blender with half a cup of water. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Add the cashew cream and dried herbs to the soup pot, stirring well to combine.
Allow to simmer for another 20 – 30 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper, serve topped with 2-4 tablespoons of nooch

You may or may not find nutritional yeast at your typical grocery store, but you should be able to find it at your local natural food store – It's also available in bulk depending on your local store.

Is nooch already a staple in your diet? If so, how do you use it?
If you are new to nooch, give it a try and share how you use!

Raw Vegan Pumpkin Hemp Spread

11/9/2014

Comments

As the seasons change, so do our senses for warmer, earthier foods.

Our five senses interact to influence our experiences with food and beverages. Things such as bonfires, fireplaces, apple trees, pine cones, cinnamon, nutmeg and pumpkin help create these feelings of coziness and comfort. During the colder, damp, winter months, try exploring more foods with a bitter taste. For example, arugula, dandelion greens, beet greens, beets, carrots, apples, cranberries, pears, squash, millet, quinoa, chickpeas, red lentils and soaked almonds or cashews. Get into more spices, like cardamom, cayenne, curry powder, allspice, and turmeric as well as chamomile, jasmine, and peppermint tea. These foods are chock full of health benefits.

How about an EARTHY, RAW VEGAN PUMPKIN HEMP SPREAD?

Pumpkin and hemp seeds - the perfect pair providing a smooth texture with a subtle crunch. Pumpkin is a storehouse of many anti-oxidant vitamins such as vitamin-A, vitamin-C and vitamin-E. It's also a good source of B-complex group of vitamins and a rich source of minerals. Hemp seeds are often classified as one of nature's perfect foods, and a health powerhouse in the following ways:

Vegan and gluten free, and rich source of essential vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids.

The Good Fats: Hemp seeds contain the perfect 1:3 balance of Omega-3 to Omega-6, which the body needs for optimal skin health, energy production, nervous system function, brain development, heart health, and immune system support.
Naturally Occurring Super Omegas: These help the body convert benefits of Omega-3 & Omega-6 EFA's more efficiently.
Whole, Plant-Based Protein: One of the best sources for easily digestible, high-quality protein. Unlike soy, hemp does not contain enzyme inhibitors and phytates, so the nutrients in hemp can be easily absorbed by the body.
Essential Amino Acids: Hemp Seeds contain ALL of the essential amino acids. A perfect, complete protein source for those who live a plant-based lifestyle.

Ingredients:

1 can organic pumpkin puree
1-2 tablespoons VitaFiber (syrup or powder)
2 packages Natera Hemp Seeds - Maple (or 4-6 tablespoons hemp seeds)
1/2 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 pinch of cajun pepper (optional)
1 pinch sea salt

Directions:
Depending on choice of sweetener, you can either mix everything in a bowl by hand or use a blender. If you use syrup, a blender is best.

Put everything in a bowl, except the hemp seeds. Mix well (or blend in mixer)
Stir in hemp seeds and mix again.
Store in airtight container in the refrigerator.
Enjoy!

This simple, raw vegan spread is so easy to make, extremely healthy and tastes delicious with so many things, including:

Spread on sprouted grain toast
Serve in oatmeal
Spread in a root veggie wrap
A dip for veggies or zucchini chips
Enjoy in half of an avocado
Eat all by itself!

VitaFiber™, by BioNeutra™ is a natural, certified organic, low calorie prebiotic fiber (syrup or powder) for human digestive health.

GET EXCITED ABOUT FALL RUNNING: Lace up, put on your layers and hit the trail.

10/1/2014

Comments

Ever wonder why the majority of marathons are held in October and November? It’s the ideal weather for running. The colder the weather, the less heat stress on the body, which makes it significantly easier to run. As an avid runner, I look forward to bringing out my gear for cooler running for many reasons– from the picturesque beauty Mother Nature brings us to the numerous health benefits. Take advantage of running outside as much as possible this fall season - Lace up, put on your layers and hit the trail.

Tips & motivators that will enhance your running in cooler temps

Running outside is naturally free and convenient
A true grassroots mood booster. One study published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology found that people who exercised outdoors reported increased energy, decreased feelings of depression, and were more likely to repeat their workouts.
Boots your immune system and keeps away the common cold. An Iowa University report showed that 45 minutes of running per day reduces the risk of contracting the flu during winter months; the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research found that winter workouts can cut your flu risk by 20 – 30%.
Increases your speed. Staying active in colder conditions trains your body to use oxygen more efficiently. Research from Northern Arizona University found that after regular cold workouts runs, you add 29% to your running speed.
Revs up your metabolism. Your body has to work harder when you run in the cold simply to keep you warm. This speeds metabolism and provides more energy, which help you stay sharp and focused throughout the day.
Nurture yourself with plant-based, nutrient-dense whole foods. Within 20 minutes of completing your run, the body needs simple carbs to enter the bloodstream. This means your snack choice should contain minimal fat and protein and no fiber, since these slow the rate at which carbs enter the bloodstream. A 4:1 ratio of carbs to protein is most effective, as it will speed up glycogen replenishment (rate at which muscles absorb carb). Great choices include a recovery drink, or other near-liquid-consistency foods. These are much easier to digest, therefore requiring less energy. Ground flaxseed and hemp protein are excellent choices. You can equally use a small amount of hemp oil too as it will help repair soft-tissue damage. Read more from my article "Fueling the Runner's High".
Stay hydrated. It seems as you wouldn't sweat as much during colder temps, but with warmer clothes and dry air, that's not the case. You may even sweat more than you would during warmer months. Drink plenty of water before, during, and after any exercise. Consider drinking something with electrolytes as well, such as coconut water.
Dress with the right layers, but don't overdress. How many layers will depend on the degree of coldness, but in general, you want synthetic material close to your skin (wicking) and an outer layer that fights off cold wind and/or rain.
Protect your extremities. You lose about 50% of your body heat from your head. Your head, ears, hands and feet are the first to get cold because your body pulls blood toward your core to keep you warm.
Be safe.

Be mindful when running in less light
Always make eye contact with drivers before crossing a street
Wear reflective gear or a headlamp
Ensure that your running shoes are appropriate for wet/slippery surfaces
Carry an I.D. or purchase a RoadID (http://www.roadid.com)

FALL HAS ARRIVED: EAT YOUR SQUASH & HEMP TOO.

9/23/2014

Comments

photo taken in Bellevue, WA

Nothing against zucchini, but the health benefits of fall-harvest (winter) squash far outweigh their summer cousins.

Winter squash is one of the richest sources of plant-based anti-inflammatory nutrients, such as omega 3s and beta-carotene, which are important for a strong immune system to help protect against colds and flu. Some other health benefits include:

Antioxidant Rich
Promotes Optimal Health
Blood Sugar Regulation
Rich in Fiber

Save the seeds! Seeds from winter squash make a great snack food, just like pumpkin seeds. They include antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, as well as anti-diabetic and insulin-regulating properties.

Scoop the pulp and seeds from inside the squash and separate out the seeds
Place them in a single layer on a cookie sheet and lightly roast them at 160-170°F or about 75°C in the oven for 15-20 minutes.
By roasting them for a relatively short time at a low temperature, you can help minimize damage to their healthy oils.

Explore the many amazing winter squash varieties while they are in season! A few of Miss Bellevue Vegan's Favorites include:

Acorn squash is a great all-around squash, with moist, sweet, tender flesh. They are good for roasting, baking, steaming, mashing, and sautéing. Smaller ones are perfect for stuffing with a protein-rich pseudo-grain like quinoa and fibrous veggies to make an excellent vegan main course.

Butternut squash is the sweetest winter squash. It has a thick and moist flesh; its peel is comparatively thin and easy to peel. It's quite versatile as it roasts and sautés quickly. Best of all, is mashes and purees smoothly, with no thick strands or fibrous bits, making it perfect for soups.

Spaghetti squash is all about the texture. Once cooked the flesh will pull apart into thick, slightly crisp, noodle-like strands. Try it with tomato sauce or salt, pepper and Bragg's Nutritional Yeast.

Sweet Dumpling squash is small and quite cute! They have a yellow skin with bright orange or deep green stripes. The flesh is starchy with a slight corn flavor. The small size makes them perfect for stuffing and roasting. They are an excellent source of vitamin A and a good source of vitamin C. For a complete, nutrient-dense, vegan meal, try stuffed with quinoa, spinach, hulled hemp seeds, sea salt, ground pepper, fresh garlic and olive oil. (See recipe below)

EAT YOUR HEMP!
Why? Hemp is one of the most incredible and nutritious foods available to humans.

An amazing, COMPLETE, plant-based protein that is extremely easy to digest.

"Complete" refers to amino acids. There are 21 different amino acids that can form a protein and nine that the body can't produce on its own. These are called essential amino acids. In order for a protein to be considered "complete", it must contain all nine of these essential amino acids in roughly equal amounts.

Hemp is also rich in two of the most important EFAs: Omega-6 and Omega-3.

Hemp has many other health benefits. To name a handful:

Boosts immunity
Increases metabolic rate and energy
Lowers cholesterol
Moderates blood sugar
Improves skin conditions
Promotes optimal brain development and functioning
Relieves symptoms of arthritis and reduces inflammation
Helps relieve symptoms of PMS

Hemp comes in many forms, including seeds, protein, flour and oil. ALL starting from the same seed. If you are new to hemp, start with hemp seeds. They are an extremely versatile SUPERFOOD and can be easily added to your favorite dish or can be eaten alone as they taste great!

Stayed tuned for more hemp education from Miss Bellevue Vegan!

Plant-Powered Stuffed Winter Squash

Serves 2-3
2-3 sweet dumpling squash (you can use acorn as well)
1 tablespoon coconut oil
3 cups fresh spinach
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 cup cooked quinoa
4 tablespoons hemp seeds
2-4 tablespoons nutritional yeast (add more or less depending on your taste preference)
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Preheat oven to 375 F or 190 C.
Cut squash in half and scoop out seeds. (Remember, the seeds can be roasted like pumpkin seeds.)
Place squash face-down in an oiled baking dish. Bake until tender when pierced with a knife, about 30 minutes.
Remove squash from oven but keep oven on.
Prepare the plant-based stuffing while the squash is baking: Heat coconut oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped bell pepper and sauté for 5-10 minutes. The add in spinach and sauté until spinach is soft and dense. Stir in the cooked quinoa and season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, add in nutritional yeast and mix well.
Turn the squash upright in the baking dish and stuff with the plant-based mixture.
Cover dish with aluminum foil and bake for another 20 minutes.
Remove from oven, add hemp seeds to the top of the stuffed squash, serve and enjoy!

EDUCATION & TIPS:

You can cook with hemp seed, provided that the temperature doesn’t go above 350 F or 175 C. It's best to just add in hemp seeds after any warm meal is done cooking.
The peel of sweet dumpling squash is generally tender enough to be eaten.

As the level of awareness and education continues to boom around plant-based health, Runner's World recently helped kick it into gear even further - in the form of knee-high "VEGAN" socks right on the cover. Also, you will notice another reference to vegan in reference to the smoothies.

When Runner’s World redesigned their magazine starting with this month’s issue, their stated goal was to have the magazine fit better into every runner’s world. And they definitely did this!

The cover model, Micah Risk is a 3:18 marathoner and a nutritionist at Lighter, a company she co-founded in Boston to help women take control of their diets, with a focus on real, plant-based food.

If you are looking to purchase a pair for yourself, they are available for $10 here.
