Bhel Puri.

 Bhel Puri for breakfast? It’s got puffed rice and corn flakes so why not! It’s a popular Indian snack that has a crunchy mix of chickpea flour noodles, corn flakes, puffed rice, peanuts and spices. To this you add boiled potatoes, chopped tomatoes, red onions, mint chutney, Bhel Puri chutney which is tamarind based, chat masala powder and lemon. Crunchy, crispy, tangy, spicy, sweet, sour, fresh. It’s so good!

Butter chickpeas curry and naan.

 For lunch I made @plantcrazii recipe for Butter Chickpeas Curry with homemade naan from The Conscious Plant Kitchen blog. This was so delicious! The curry was so luscious and creamy and spiced just right. I used coconut milk instead of vegan oat cream. The naan was delicious and yeast free. It was made with only a few ingredients: flour, baking powder, coconut yogurt and salt. It did take some work to roll them out and cook but they were so good.

Rancho Gordo Black Caviar Lentils



 I used Rancho Gordo black caviar lentils to make a roasted vegetable salad with tahini dressing. It was delicious. 




I had a lot of leftover salad left so I decided to mash it with more cooked lentils and added panko crumbs, flour, onion, garlic, cumin and cinnamon. I formed them into patties and cooked in olive oil in a pan. I served them on a bun with harissa mayo (vegan mayo, lime juice, harissa, cumin, agave, salt, pepper) and harissa slaw. Delicious!!!! I was so impressed with this.
