4 ingredient Banana nut cakies

1 cup whole wheat flour  

1/2 cup chunky almond butter

2 ripe bananas smashed  

2 Tbsp good maple syrup

Optional: Half a dark chocolate almond bar broken up

sea salt to taste 

Preheat the oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with wax paper. 

Mash your nanners, mix in the maple syrup and almond butter (I love the Trader Joe's brand), until smooth, fold in the whole wheat flour until fluffy then toss in your crushed up chocolate bar. Spoon onto your baking sheet in a cookie-ish shape (they won't move much or rise too much). Bake 12 minutes then put on wire wrack to cool 10 minutes. You're going to want to eat them all and they have good protein (3G/cookie) and fiber so I won't judge.

Vegan MoFo - protein packed spaghetti

I came across some edamame gluten free spaghetti at CostCo and it sounded too good to be true. 20+ grams of protein per serving, no wheat, and the noodles are my favorite color, green! Win! the texture was chewy and unusual but I LOVED it! I can't wait to play with different sauces.

Soy crumbles spaghetti sauce

1 Cup TVP

1 Cup water

2Tbsp soy sauce

2tsp each sage, fennel seeds, herbs de Provence, dried oregano and basil

1 can fire roasted tomatoes

3 cloves garlic, crushed

Tbsp olive oil

handful fresh spinach, basil and oregano Β 

Bring the water, soy sauce, and dry spices to a boil, stir in TVP, remove from heat and cover for 10 minutes. In a frying pan sautΓ© garlic in olive oil on medium heat until lightly brown, stir in tomatoes, and TVP until simmering, add in the fresh greens until wilted.

Edamame spaghetti

Bring a pot of water to boil with a pinch of salt then put in a handful or two of edamame noodles, boil 4-5minutes, drain, rinse with cool water, return to the pan and gently fold in some Earth Balance. Β 

Serve up your noodles on a plate then a scoop of sauce on top. Yum! Β
