Cashew and Almond butter

This recipe is so easy, with no additives, extra sweetners or salt and so much cheaper than the store bought kind…

Roast nuts 400 degrees, until you start to smell them.  Take them out as the can burn quite easily

Throw them into a food processor, stop every few minutes to wipe down sides.  Process until it becomes a creamy texture, about 10 minutes

Callalloo Soup

ingredients

  • Callallo bush
  • kale
  • pumpkin
  • ochra
  • zucchini
  • carrots
  • onion
  • garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • some hot sauce always helps too

callallo ingredients

Instructions

Saute in a dutch oven ingredients from pumpkin to garlic until tender.  Add water, then add kale and callallo until tender and all ingredients have boiled down.  Take an immersion blender and blend away until smooth, add salt and pepper to taste.

Weekly meals

As a vegetarian/vegan this is generally what i eat every week.  It is always quinoa with some sort of peas/beans and a vegetable.  I hate to cook so this is basically what i can handle :-).  I have tried loads of recipes and they have ended up in the bin. Needless to say I basically stick with what I know.
