After many of my friends and family requested recipes to the never-ending spew of pictures of food on Facebook I have finally been convinced to start my own blog. I am not the best writer and tend to lay off punctuation and common elementary grammar but I will do my best to keep this legible and somewhat clear. Cooking with NO oils, NO added salt and NO refined flours or sugars. Plant based, nutrient dense foods that pop with flavor! I hope you enjoy the pictures and try the recipes.

Curry Lentil Burgers
I found myself wanting a wrap with a veggie burger the other night and ended up whipping up these burgers. Simple and minimal are the key here and the base of the burger can be expanded to many other applications. A lentil loaf or a garden vegetable lentil burger can just as easily be made with the addition of desired ingredients. I really enjoyed these, made them around a half inch thick and when heated up they were nice and mushy inside...perfect for putting in a wrap.
1C Lentils, cooked
1/4C Quinoa, cooked
1oz Cashews, raw
1oz Almonds, raw
2T Coconut aminos (can substitute reduced sodium tamari)
3T Nutritional yeast
1T Curry powder
2T Red pepper flakes
Boil the first 4 ingredients until the lentils are cooked (appx 10min). Drain and cool with cold water. Add to a food processer with remaining ingredients and blend until you are able to form into patties. You may need a tablespoon of water to make it stickier. Form patties 1/2in thick and place on baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 min at 350 degrees. ENJOY!
