Beet Ravioli with Pine Nut "Goat Cheese" Rosemary-Cream Sauce, Aged Balsamic Vinegar

Ingredients:
4 cups pine nuts, soaked 1 hour or more
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium shallots, peeled and diced
Zest of 1 lemon
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 teaspoons nutritional yeast
2 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 recipe Pine Nut "Goat Cheese"
1 teaspoon minced rosemary
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
3/4 cup filtered water
Pinch of sea salt
1 clove garlic, peeled
Freshly ground black pepper
2 medium beets (2 inches in diameter or more), peeled
2 tablespoons macadamia oil, or other nut oil, or extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons high-quality aged balsamic vinegar
Microgreens or other herbs
for garnish

Instructions:
Process all ingredients in a food processor until as smooth as possible.
You should have about 4 cups. Reserve 2 cups for the sauce, and set aside the remainder.
Puree all the ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth.
Using a mandoline, slice the beets very thin (so they are pliable and not stiff, approximately 1/16 of an inch or less).
Make small stacks of the larger pieces and use a sharp knife to cut into squares-the size doesn't matter much, as long as they are all roughly the same. Alternatively, use a round-, heart-or other- shaped cookie cutter to cut the slices. Cut at least 40 slices-10 per serving, with a few extra to spare.
In a medium bowl, place the beet slices, oil, lemon juice, and salt and toss gently to coat evenly. Allowing the beets to sit for a half hour or more will soften them; this is optional but a good idea if your slices are on the thicker side and still a bit stiff.
Lay half the beet slices on a clean work surface and top each with a rounded teaspoonful of the cheese. Top with the remaining beet slices and press down gently.
Spoon the sauce onto serving plates, and arrange the ravioli on top. Garnish with a few drops of aged balsamic vinegar and a few sprigs of either microgreens or fresh herbs.
Blueberry Muffins with Lemon Blackberry Glaze

Ingredients:
1 2/3 cups almond meal
1 cup golden flax meal (about 3/4 cup whole seeds ground into powder)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Lemon Pudding Filled Coconut Cupcakes with Shaved Coconut Topping

Ingredients:
1/3 cup cashews
1 1/2 bananas
1/4 cup lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
2 tablespoons agave syrup
2 1/2 cups dry pecans
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
3/4 cup firmly packed pitted Medjool dates
3 tablespoons alcohol-free vanilla extract
1/2 cup shaved or shredded coconut

Instructions:
To make the pudding, place the cashews in the Personal Blender with the grinder lid and 2-cup container or a food processor and grind into a powder. Add the bananas, lemon juice, and agave syrup and process until smooth. Place in the fridge to chill.
To make the cupcakes, combine the pecans, coconut, and salt in the food processor and process into evenly sized small pieces, taking care not to overprocess into a butter. Scoop the mixture into another bowl. Combine the dates and vanilla in the food processor and process into small pieces. Return the pecan mixture to the food processor and pulse to mix. The cake mix should have a crumbly but sticky texture.
Place 6 cupcake liners in a muffin pan. Use a 1/2-cup measuring cup to scoop 1/2 cup loosely packed pecan mixture into each. Using your fingertips, gently press to firm up the cupcakes and create cavities in the centers to hold the pudding. Make sure the edges reach the tops of the cupcake liners.
To assemble, scoop about 3 tablespoons pudding into each cupcake and top with coconut. Place the muffin pan in the refrigerator to chill for several hours to firm up the cupcakes before serving.
The pudding will keep for a few days in fridge when stored separately. The cupcakes, stored separately, will keep for several weeks in the fridge. The assembled cupcakes will keep in the fridge for a few days.

Tempeh and Eggplant Pot Pies

Ingredients:
2 cups (165 g) diced eggplant (1 small globe eggplant or 2 Asian eggplants)
1 package (8 ounces, or 225 g) tempeh, cut into 1/2-inch (1 cm) cubes
2 tablespoons (30 ml) water or olive oil
1 small-size yellow onion, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
1 teaspoon (2 g) fennel seeds
1 to 2 tablespoons (8 to 16 g) capers, rinsed
2 tablespoons (30 ml) balsamic vinegar
1 can or jar ( 15 ounces, or 420 g) tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes or hot sauce
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 2/3 cups (210 g) all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon (15 g) baking powder (look for aluminum-free)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup (160 ml) nondairy milk (soy, rice, almond, hazelnut, hemp, or oat)
1/3 cup (80 ml) canola oil or nondairy
nonhydrogenated butter (such as Earth Balance)
melted

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C, or gas mark 7). Coat 4 or 6 individual ramekins with oil, and set aside. You also can use a 9-inch (23 cm) square pan or a rectangular pan.
To make filling, steam eggplant and tempeh for 10 to 15 minutes, until eggplant is soft and translucent. At the same time, add water or oil to a large-size sauté pan and cook onion and celery until soft. Add fennel seeds, capers, and vinegar, and sauté for 1 minute. Add tomato sauce, red pepper flakes, and cooked tempeh and eggplant. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, prepare biscuit dough. Place flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl, and stir together. Pour in nondairy milk and butter or oil, and mix just until dry ingredients are evenly moistened. The dough should be lumpy and sticky, not smooth like cake batter.
Remove sauté pan from heat, and season filling with salt and pepper, to taste.
Divide filling evenly among prepared ramekins. Drop dough by small spoonfuls on top of each ramekin. Carefully spread dough with back of spoon so it evenly covers filling. Bake pot pies until crust is golden, about 15 minutes. Serve hot.
Lemon-Tahini Sauce

Ingredients:
Small bunch (about 30 sprigs) flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup sesame tahini
2 to 4 large cloves garlic
4 to 5 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 to 6 tablespoons water
3/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon cayenne (optional)

Instructions:
Holding the parsley in a bunch, trim off and discard an inch or so from the bottom of the stems. Cut the bunch crosswise into thirds. Place in a colander, rinse, and drain. Bounce the colander up and down to shake off excess water.
Place the tahini, parsley, garlic, 4 tablespoons lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons water into the bowl of a food processor. Blend well, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed and adding enough additional water and/or lemon juice to create a sauce with a smooth, pourable consistency and a nice puckery taste. (The amount of liquid you'll need to add will depend upon the thickness of the tahini and how much water adhered to the parsley.) Add the salt and cayenne (if using). Refrigerate until needed, for up to 1 week.
Navy Bean Gravy

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, roughly chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
Several dashes fresh black pepper
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1/3 cup flour
1 fifteen-ounce can navy beans, drained and rinsed
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 to 1/2 cup water
Salt
to taste (if needed)

Instructions:
Preheat a saucepan over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion and garlic in the oil for about 5 minutes. Add the thyme and black pepper (I like a lot of black pepper in this) and cook for about 3 minutes more. While that is cooking, stir the flour into the broth until dissolved.
If you have an immersion blender, then add the beans, broth mixture, and soy sauce to the saucepan. Blend immediately and lower the heat to medium. Stir the gravy often for about 10 minutes while it thickens.
If you are using a regular blender, add the beans, broth mixture, and soy sauce to the blender and blend until smooth. Transfer the onion and the other stuff from the pan to the blender. Puree again until no big chunks of onion are left. Add back to the pot and stir often over medium heat to thicken.
Once the gravy thickens, reduce the heat to low. Now you can decide exactly how thick you want it by adding splashes of water, anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2 cup. Cook for about 20 more minutes to let the flavors deepen, stirring occasionally. Add water as necessary and taste for salt. Keep gravy covered and warm until ready to serve.
Oat Crisps with Blueberries and Crème Fraîche

Ingredients:
1 1/4 ounces (2 1/2 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 pints blueberries (about 4 cups)
1 cup crème fraîche

Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and corn syrup and stir until blended. Stir in the oats, mixing well.
To form the crisps, drop the oats mixture by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 1/2 inches apart. Bake, rotating the baking sheets 180 degrees at the midway point, until golden brown and bubbly, about 15 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets. Then, using a metal spatula, transfer the crisps to a large flat plate to cool.
Divide the blueberries and crème fraîche among individual bowls and place 2 oat crisps alongside or on top of each serving.
