Ingredients

Serves: 4 Time: 50 minutes

Mediterranean Sweet Potato Platter

  • 2 sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 tsp ground thyme
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 Tbs olive oil
  • 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup brown lentils, rinsed
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 2 Tbs fresh parsley, minced
  • 1 cup red cabbage
  • 2-3 cups kale, rinsed & chopped
  • Optional topping: greek yogurt dressing
  • Optional side: pita bread

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF
  2. Prepare all of your vegetables, transferring the sweet potato, onion, bell pepper, tomato, and chickpeas to a mixing bowl.
  3. If you are preparing the greek yogurt dressing, prepare now and rest in the fridge while you cook.
  4. Set aside the cucumber and parsley in a small prep bowl and return to the fridge. Also, set aside the cabbage and kale.
  5. Toss the sweet potatoes, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes, and chickpeas with olive oil, salt, black pepper, ground thyme, and oregano. Transfer to a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 35-45 minutes or until veggies are cooked and well-roasted. Check on them and stir halfway through.
  6. For the lentils, rinse them ahead of time according to the packaging.
  7. Then, in a medium stove-top pot, bring 2 cups of vegetable broth to a boil.
  8. Once boiling, add in the lentils, garlic, and lemon juice. Cook for 1 minute.
  9. Cover the pot with a lid and reduce heat to low, allowing the lentils to simmer for 25-30 minutes. There may be a little bit of liquid remaining after the lentils are cooked, but that will absorb on its own after being removed from heat.
  10. After your vegetables and lentils have cooked, serve together over a mix of kale and cabbage and top with cucumbers/parsley. Dress with optional dressing and serve with pita bread if desired.
  11. Serve and enjoy!

Jelly Donut Cupcakes, the deceptively delicious cupcake that’s all dressed up like a donut. These are the perfect pastry to bring to a morning meeting, potluck brunch, or for enjoying at home! Serve with coffee in the morning or after dinner for dessert. Adapted from the Veganomicon, you can make these pastries vegetarian by using cow dairy and butter, or try making them gluten-free with a gluten-free flour substitute.

Ingredients

Yield: 12 cupcakes Time: 35-40 minutes

Jelly Donut Cupcakes

  • 1 cup non-dairy milk (we used Planet Oat Original)
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2. Tbs cornstarch
  • 1 1/12 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/3 cup vegan butter, melted (we used Smart Balance)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Raspberry jam or preserves (or another jam of your choosing)
  • Confectioner’s sugar (for topping)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a 12-muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. Then, in a small mixing bowl, combine the non-dairy milk, apple cider vinegar, and cornstarch. Whisk together until well-combined and then set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Once the dry ingredients are mixed, create a well in the center of the bowl by parting the flour around to the sides of the bowl.
  5. Then, pour the milk mixture into the well and begin to whisk together, being sure to remove clumps of flour.
  6. Next, whisk in the melted vegan butter, vanilla extract, and sugar and combine until the batter is smooth.
  7. Evenly distribute the batter into the muffin liners. Each should be filled about 3/4 of the way full.
  8. And then, with your jam, take a heaping teaspoon of jam and plop it on top of the batter in the center. Don’t push the jam down into the batter.
  9. Place the cupcakes in the oven and bake for 21-23 minutes.
  10. Once baked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. It is best to leave the cupcakes out at room temperature (preferably overnight) to allow the top to dry a bit, like a donut. But, you can serve immediately once cooled.
  11. Top with powdered sugar before enjoying and serve with coffee if desired!

Store at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.
