Indian snack food is so good! Dabeli is a popular snack food in India. It’s a mixture of boiled potatoes cooked with spices and tamarind chutney and spread on a bun and topped with cilantro chutney, tamarind chutney, roasted peanuts, sev (chickpea noodles) and onions. So good! Spicy, tangy, salty and fluffy with crunchy and crispy textures.

Mayan Red Beans
My first time using @rancho_gordo Mayan Red Beans to make red beans and rice. Delicious! The beans are smaller and a bit denser than kidney beans but still very good for this dish. I used sautéed soy chorizo, onions, garlic, peppers, Cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, mushroom broth powder and water in the crockpot for about 7 hours on high.

Walnut butter
I made walnut butter today. I toasted two cups of walnuts and then processed them in my mini cuisinart for about 3-5 minutes, stopping to scrape the sides every so often. Then added 1/4 teaspoons salt and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup.
It looked good at this point but I wanted it to be sweeter so I added another tablespoon of maple syrup and it thickened up considerably after I did this. Oops!
It’s still delicious and really good on toast. I ended up heating a little bit of it in the microwave for a few seconds to soften it so I can easily spread it. Highly recommend giving this a go.

Bread dip, Turkish kofte and Cacik
This bread dip is unreal! Ingredients: extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, green olives, Kalamata olives, sundried tomatoes, grated cucumber, fresh diced tomatoes, hot peppers, grated lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, salt and pepper. I was going to add vegan Parmesan but I forgot!
Everything @melizcooks does comes out perfect every time! Today I made the cheater Turkish kofte kebabs from her cookbook, but vegan style using @beyondmeat and Cacik, a Turkish cucumber dip. I wrapped everything in lavash bread. So delicious!
