Onigirazu (Sushi Sandwich, Gluten-Free)
You can immediately see why this is in the ‘special picks’ section! This is like a giant sushi that has become a sandwich!
You don’t lose that oriental influence in this beautiful meal.
When I first saw the ingredients, I thought it would take hours to create, you’re looking at 30 minutes prep time and of course, you have to cook the rice (or sweet potato depending on what you choose, choose both!) Tasty, satisfying and looks phenomenal.
Spreads & Sauce Recipes
Killer Burger Sauce (3 Ingredients)
I know it’s super convenient to buy all our sauces from the store, but so often, we don’t really know where they are made or even how long ago!
This isn’t to mention the ingredients that sometimes contain dubious substances.
We may not care for ourselves, but when we have kids we need to think twice.
This burger sauce also makes for a great salad dressing I think. Just three ingredients and a little seasoning to taste, blend until the consistency becomes thick and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (this makes it even thicker).
Stores in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Cucumber Sauce
Sometimes you want a great tasting sauce but without all the fat and calories. Check out this recipe.
If you love cucumber, then you just have to make this. Just a handful of ingredients and seasoning to taste creates this great creamy texture. Use as a dip or makes for a great salad dressing.
Best Vegan Tzatziki
Trying to find a vegan tzatziki can be like trying to climb Mount Everest. Then even if you find one, is it any good? This one is!
The base of this is cashews, soak them overnight before making this recipe.
Add the other ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth and creamy (this may take a couple of minutes) and you’re good to go. Serve in your favorite sandwich or drizzle over falafel!
Basic Vegan Cheese Sauce
Just because the word ‘basic’ is in the title of this recipe, don’t let that fool you into thinking it’s of a low quality, it’s quite the opposite to say the least.
There’s about half a dozen ingredients in this (not including water) and it’s all real food.
The end-result is perfect for nachos, pasta dishes and just about anything you can think of.
If you and your family suffer from allergies, knowing all the ingredients is super important. No need to miss out on the fun stuff now!
Healthy Homemade Barbecue Sauce
Okay so I normally buy a barbecue sauce and never thought about making my own.
I checked the ingredients in my store-bought version and must admit there was one of two things in there that I would have preferred didn’t exist in the jar.
Now you can make your own using Dijon mustard, soy sauce and just a few other ingredients.
They say that food that you create at home tastes better and this is no exception. Even if you just make it for special occasions, keep this recipe because it’s impressive.
DIY Vegan Mayonnaise
I think everybody loves mayonnaise, it’s so versatile and great in sandwiches and on salads.
When I became vegan, I don’t think you could buy a plant-based version like you can nowadays. The trouble is, it can be so expensive!
Why not make your own with this simple recipe? Just four ingredients and five minutes later and you have this thick creamy mayo that’s just fantastic.
The author suggests that you may have to juggle with ingredients a few times to get the taste just how you like it so don’t give up straightaway. I promise you the end-product is more than worth it.
