          ALL ORGANIC INGREDIENTS

          COOKIES
          1/2 Cup Vegan butter or butter
          2/3 Cup Monk Fruit
          1 tsp Vanilla extract
          3 Tbsp Chickpea brine or flax egg, or 1 egg
          3/4 tsp baking powder
          1/4 tsp Himalayan Sea salt
          1 2/3 Cups gluten free flour
          2/3 Cup Almond flour
          1/3 Cup Arrowroot
          1 TBSP Almond or nut milk

          FROSTING (optional)
          1/2 Cup vegan butter
          1 1/2 – 2 cups sifted powdered sugar
          1/4 tsp vanilla extract
          1-2 TBSP Almond or nut milk

          Preheat oven to 375 and line baking sheets with parchment paper OR spray with coconut oil spray.
          Add softened vegan butter (not melted or cold) to a mixing bowl and beat/whisk until creamy and smooth.
          Add monk fruit and mix on medium speed until fluffy
          Then add chickpea brine (or other egg substitute) and vanilla and mix again.
          Add baking powder and sea salt and blend well
          Then add gluten free flour blend, almond flour, and arrowroot and mix on low until the ingredients are combined.
          Add almond milk and stir.

          The dough should be thick, moldable and a little difficult to mix at this point. If too soft, continue adding a mixture of gluten free flour blend, almond flour, and arrowroot until a thick, moldable dough is formed. If too thick, thin with a bit more almond milk.

          Transfer dough to the refrigerator and chill for 15 minutes. Once chilled, use a spoonful of about 11/2 TBSP of dough and roll into balls – the dough will still be soft. Place on parchment-lined baking sheets and press down gently with the back or your spoon to smash slightly.
          Or you may roll out the dough on a well-floured surface until about 1/4-inch thick and use cookie cutters dipped in flour before pressing into the dough. Use a floured spatula to gently scoop onto baking sheets.

          Let the dough rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before scooping and baking

          Bake cookies for about 10-12 minutes or until the cookies appear fluffy.
          Cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes.

          To make frosting, add softened vegan butter to a mixing bowl and whisk/beat until soft.
          Sift in powdered sugar in small amounts and mix, add the vanilla and whisk.
          Continue adding powdered sugar until you have spreadable frosting.

          Let the dough rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before scooping and baking.

              ALL ORGANIC INGREDIENTS 

              3/4 Cup Tricolor uncooked quinoa

              3/4 cup Pecans

              2 TBSP Coconut sugar

              1/4 cup Blackstrap Molasses

              1/4 cinnamon

              Pinch of Himalayan sea salt

              Stevia, if you desire it sweeter

              Combine quinoa, pecans, coconut sugar, salt, and cinnamon/spices in a bowl and set aside.

              Over low to medium heat, add the coconut oil and black strap molasses (and optional Stevia). Stir until there is no visible separation.  Pour over the dry ingredients, combine and coat evenly,  spread on a parchment lined baking sheet with a metal spoon.

              Try to get it as even as possible or the edges will burn in the center won’t crisp up.

              Bake for 15 minutes and turn the pan around to ensure even baking and Browning. Back 5 to 10 minutes more and watch carefully so it does not burn. The edges will get crisp and caramelized, and the color will be uniformly deep golden brown in color.

              Let it cool completely before breaking it into serving pieces.   You can store leftovers in a sealed container at room temperature for a week, or in the freezer for up to one month.

                    Crust

                    • 1 small to medium sized head of cauliflower – should yield 2 to 3 cups once processed
                    • ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese, or vegan cheese

                    • 1-2 cups vegan Organic mozzarella cheese
                    1. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
                    2. Remove the stems from the cauliflower and cut into chunks, place the cauliflower into a food processor, pulse it until it resembles the texture of rice. If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a cheese grater or chop it very finely.
                    3. Place the cauliflower in a kitchen towel and squeeze all the liquid out of it. Be sure to squeeze as much liquid as possible!!! Very important!
                    4. Combine the cooked cauliflower, egg or flax egg, garlic, cheese, and seasonings. Stir until a dough texture forms. Spread the cauliflower mixture out onto lightly greased parchment paper or a pizza pan in the shape of a pizza crust.
                    5. Bake the crust for approximately 10-15 minutes (depending on your oven), or until the crust is golden and crispy. After the crust is golden remove it from the oven and add your toppings.
                    6. Place the pizza back in the oven but this time turn on the broiler, bake for about 2-5 minutes until the cheese melts. be sure to keep an eye on it because the broiler can burn the cheese quickly.
                    7. Make sure you add love!  Slice and serve smiles!
