2 cloves garlic-whole
2 medium sized carrots - chopped
2 stalks celery - chopped
Parsley -handful- chopped

Put crockpot on high to bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer. Let cook for 18-48 hours. The longer you cook the broth, the more intense the flavor will be.

3 Tbsp coconut oil
2 medium onions, diced
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp caraway
1 tsp coriander
pinch red pepper flakes
3 medium size beets, cleaned and diced
2 large carrots, cleaned and diced
6 cups vegetable broth or bouillon
1 Tbsp lemon juice
yogurt and dill garnish (optional)
Heat the coconut oil on medium heat until melted. Add onions and a 1/4 tsp sea salt. Saute about 4 minutes until onions are turning golden and you begin to smell them. Stir in cumin, caraway, and red pepper flakes and saute until well combined. Add the beets, carrots and 1/4 tsp sea salt and stir a minute or two to combine the veggies and the spices. Add the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until beets and carrots are tender, about 25 minutes. Let cool and puree with emulsion blender or regular blender. If using a regular blender let soup cool and transfer in small batches until its all pureed to a smooth consistency. Add lemon juice. Adjust the seasoning to your liking. Add more red pepper flakes for more heat. When serving, add a spoonful of yogurt and a sprinkle of dill as a garnish if you feel like getting fancy.
3 cups fresh figs

2 Tablespoons shredded coconut
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup local honey
2 Tablespoons melted coconut oil

In a small saucepan combine coconut oil, honey, and vanilla and melt on low heat until evenly mixed. Spoon 2 T of honey mixture directly on fruit.

This recipe uses Cassava flour which is made from Yuca (pronounced Yoo-ka). Yuca is a large root vegetable that looks similar in size and shape to a sweet potato.
Ingredients:
3 overripe bananas
3 eggs
½ cup coconut sugar
½ cup coconut milk, canned
2 T coconut oil, melted
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 ½ cups cassava flour
1 tsp baking soda
Pinch of sea salt
2 tsp cinnamon
Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mash the bananas by hand or with an electric mixer. Mix in the eggs. Add the coconut sugar, coconut milk, coconut oil and vanilla and combine thoroughly. In a smaller bowl combine the cassava flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Slowly mix the dry mixture into the wet mixture until fully combined. Pour the batter into a standard size loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Test with a fork to make sure the center of loaf is fully cooked. Let cool. Enjoy with a spread of butter or nut butter. I like mine with sunflower butter.
Ingredients:
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup brazil nuts
¼ cup walnuts
3 T of olive oil
1 T of nutritional yeast
3 cups chopped fresh swiss chard
1/4 tsp salt
Pinch of pepper
Directions: Put garlic in your food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add nuts, 2 T olive oil, nutritional yeast, chard, salt and pepper and process until smooth consistency. Add remaining olive oil while processing to thin consistency. Toss with warm or cold zucchini noodles topped with cherry tomatoes and a splash of lemon juice.
Options: Pesto can be made with pumpkin seeds if someone has a nut allergy. It can also be made with basil, parsley, kale, arugula or any combination of greens. Nutritional yeast is used as a vegan option instead of parmesan to still get a hint of cheese flavor. Feel free to use your favorite gluten free noodles instead of zucchini. Pesto is a great way to use up extra greens and it freezes well.
Ingredients:
2 cups cooked quinoa
3 cups swiss chard, finely chopped
½ cup parsley, finely chopped
½ cup red onion, finely chopped
⅓ cup cassava flour
3 eggs
2 medium cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ tsp salt
Dash of pepper
1 tsp dijon mustard
Directions: Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until thoroughly combined . Let the mixture sit in the fridge for 30 minutes to harden. Make small patties. Heat grapeseed or avocado oil to medium heat. Fry patties until golden brown on both sides approximately 5- 6 minutes a side. Store in refrigerator for up to three days or store in freezer for several months.
Substitutions: If you have another GF flour you like to work with instead of cassava feel free to substitute. Swiss chard could be replaced by kale or spinach or another green. Serve over your favorite green, I prefer arugula. Top burgers with avocado, tomato or your favorite topping.
