Adapted - Recipe Compliments: Farah Shammas - 40 Delicious Vegan recipes Ingredients: 1 Cup wild rice (or another whole grain of choice e.g. quinoa) 1 Small bunch of chopped Swiss chard or baby spinach 2 Tbsp. Chia seeds 2 Tbsp. Sunflower seeds 1 Tbsp. Goji Berries 1/2 Cup firm tofu cut into cubes 1 Large grated carrot 2 Sliced button mushrooms Dressing: 1 Tbsp. ground flaxseeds 1 Tbsp. peanut butter 2 Tbsp rice vinegar 2 Tbsp. light soya sauce 1 Tbsp agave syrup 1 Tbsp sesame oil 1 Tbsp. of grated fresh ginger 1 Grated clove of garlic 4 Tbsp. of Coconut Milk Method: 1) Ensure to mix the dressing well. My favourite hack is to use a cleaned small glass jar. 2) Simply put all the salad dressing ingredients inside and shake really well. 3) Then you can immediately pour the dressing on top of your base, or even store it in the fridge until it's needed (remember to shake again before using if it has sat for a while). Note: You can lightly sauté the tofu in some olive oil if you want to have a firmer texture and even enjoy this warm in the salad. Ingredients:

Category: Baked Good Method: Baked Easy, one bowl, healthier pumpkin muffins made with whole wheat grains and naturally sweetened! These pumpkin muffins are as light, fluffy and delicious as their coffee shop counterparts. These are great for the whole family for school or work !! INGREDIENTS
INSTRUCTIONS
*Oil options: I love coconut oil here. I used unrefined coconut oil and can hardly taste it in the final product. Olive oil might lend an herbal note to the muffins, if you’re into that (I tested with California Olive Ranch’s “Everyday” variety and couldn’t even taste it). Vegetable oil has a neutral flavor but the average vegetable/canola oil is highly processed, so I recommend using cold-pressed sunflower oil or grapeseed oil if possible. **Flour alternatives: White whole wheat flour works great, if you can find it. Whole wheat pastry flour yields extra light and fluffy muffins that are delicate until cooled. All-purpose flour and gluten-free all-purpose flour blends work as well. **Change it up: You could really go crazy with add-ins here. After stirring in the flour and oats, gently fold in up to 3/4 cup chocolate chips, chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts, and/or some chopped dried cranberries or crystallized ginger. Serving suggestions: These muffins are great on their own, with a pat of butter, or spread with almond butter. They would also be fantastic with homemade pecan butter or coconut butter. Make it egg free: Readers report that these muffins turn out well with flax eggs! Make it vegan: Use maple syrup, flax eggs and non-dairy milk. Make it dairy free: Simply use your non-dairy milk of choice. Make it gluten free: Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free all-purpose blend works well instead of the whole wheat flour. Or, use 2 1/2 cups certified gluten-free oat flour instead. Make it oat free: Simply omit the oats. No other changes necessary. Make it lower in fat: I would argue that this bread contains a healthy amount of fat, but you can replace the oil with applesauce if you’re following a low-fat diet. Choosing olive oil instead of coconut oil will reduce the saturated fat content; total fat content will remain the same. Update September 24, 2019: I removed white whole wheat flour as an option simply because I can’t find it in stores any more. I also upped the amount of spice from 1 1/2 teaspoons to 2 teaspoons.
