Vegan Chickpea-Hallelujah-Chickpeas-Olive Oil

healthyhallelujah:Healthy Hallelujah’s Vegan Chickpea...

healthyhallelujah:Healthy Hallelujah’s Vegan Chickpea NuggetsThis is probably the strangest, yet most delicious healthy concoction I have ever put together. I really wasn’t expecting these babies to be so amazing!So basically, I am a broke college student, and I don’t want to spend money on dxtra groceries for my last week at school. So, I rummaged through my cupboards, got creative,
and found a few things to throw together. What you need:
1 16oz can of chickpeas
1 clove of garlic, chopped
1-2 tsp cumin powder
1-2 tsp olive oil 
Panko Italian breadcrumbs (if vegan, make your own in a food process by processing dry bread with Italian seasonings) What you do:
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine chickpeas, chopped garlic, cumin powder, and sea salt in a food processor. The final consistency shouldn’t be chunky, but thick. You don’t want to thin the “dough” out to hummus consistency.  
2) Roll chickpea “dough” into little bite size balls and cover lightly with olive oil. 
3) Flatten out the balls so that they are about half an inch thick, then pat both sides lightly onto the breadcrumbs.
4) Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray or coat with the remainder of the olive oil. Place nuggets on the cookie sheet.
5) Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, flip, and bake for another 10 minutes. PERFECT CONSISTENCY, I tell you! PERFECT. I can’t believe I came up with this (and no, they are not just falafel.. they are nuggets, hehe). Enjoy! read more..

Black Beans-Ingredients-Olive Oil-Garlic-Vegan

Is olive oil vegan? Are black beans vegan if they came from a can and are plain? How much garlic should I eat if I want to add a lot of it to a dish? How healthy is quinoa???

Yes, olive oil is Vegan. Black beans from a can are vegan unless otherwise stated in the Ingredients. They are plain but they have added salt and some of them have other things in them. Always check the ingredients because some canned (refried) beans have lard in them. Garlic… that depends on how much you want to add and what you are making. Taste test it. Maybe mince half of a clove and add it into the dish and if it’s not enough, add more. That only works with some dishes though. And you can read about the health benefits of quinoa here. It’s a good alternative to rice and regular spaghetti noodles and pasta. For me, they are a lot less bloat-y. read more..
