Homemade Mousssaka


This was beyond EASY and super delicious (might I add healthy too).

1)  Clean the eggplant with veggie wash to remove all the yucky pesticides.
2)  Broil on high for 30 min.
3)  Remove the skin (I left a little for some fun texture).
4)  Place into a BlendTec (or strong blender)
5)  I added 2 tsp. of curry powder, pepper, and salsa (sounds terrible, but it was yummy!!!)
6)  Blend it all up and ENJOY!!!!

Sunflower Butter

I buy my hulled seeds from WinCo.  SUPER cheap!!!

As always add to BlendTec and mix on high.
I add ginger to mine after it reaches it powdery consistency.

Delicious!

Pistachio Butter

If you cannot tell by now I am obsessed with anything with peanut butter!!!  I try to make my own all the time!

Another route I have experimented with is using pistachios.

Hull the seeds and place into the BlendTec, mix on high for a minute (until it is powdery), then add oil or in my case I use chopped up ginger!!!  My friend Kasia teases me for my obsession with ginger as well.  Oh well, I LOVE it!!!!

Enjoy!

Extra firm tofu
kale
hot sauce
tumeric (for color)
mustard (also for color and taste)

Mix well and microwave~ you will be surprised at the same consistency it has to real eggs.
