    Did I hear BACON? Can Bacon be healthy?

    by

       

      Vegan “Facon Bacon” is the best kind of “Bacon” in my option! Heart healthy coconut chips, Coconut Aminos have naturally occurring electrolytes our body needs, Sunflower oil has high Vit E and extra Iron, and Maple syrup has essential trace minerals.
      This recipe is SO EASY!!!
      Food and drink Heart healthy coconut chips oil
      Vegan, Gluten Free
      Happily serves 8

      ALL ORGANIC INGREDIENTS

      2 Cups Shredded Coconut
      1 TBSP Sunflower Oil
      2 TBSP Coconut Aminos
      1/2 tsp Liquid smoke
      1 TBSP Maple syrup
      1 tsp Smoked Paprika

      Mix all ingredients except coconut, then thoroughly mix in Coconut flakes.
      You can let this sit, or bake right away. You can also eat this raw in this form or bake it.
      325 for 5 minutes then flip and stir, bake another 5 minutes
      Watch closely as it will burn quickly.
      Important to let cool for 10 minutes so it can crisp up.

      You can store it in the fridge, that is my preference when it becomes crisp.
      Eat plain or top with your salad off or line a lettuce with it, add veggies and you have a “Bacon” wrap!

                  ALL ORGANIC INGREDIENTS

                  2 Cups Raw Cashews

                  3 TBSP Lemon Juice 

                  1/2 Cup Nutritional Yeast

                  4 Cups Water, divided

                  1 tsp Garlic

                  1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika

                  1 tsp Onion Powder

                  1/2 tsp Chili or Chipotle powder

                  2 tsp Himalayan Sea salt

                  Optional:

                  1 tsp Sriracha or Chili Sauce

                  Soak the cashews: You can either do a quick soak, or soak the cashews for several hours or overnight. To quick soak, simply boil water in a tea kettle or on the stovetop, cover the cashews with the boiling water and set aside for 10-15 minutes. Drain.

                  Blend: In a blender (high powered preferred, a food processor will also work), add the cashews, lemon juice, 3 cups of the water, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and the salt.

                  Warm: In a medium saucepan, add the cheese sauce from the blender. Using a whisk, warm over medium heat, whisking constantly, until it begins to bubble and thicken. Add the last cup of water, depending on how thick or thin you want the sauce to be.

                  Add salt to taste, and Sriracha if using, depending on your spice preference. If the cheese sauce sits for a while, or you refrigerate the leftovers, it will thicken. Simply warm it again on the stove, adding water as needed to thin
