Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients (for 4 people or 4 servings for you if you don’t like to share) :
1 purple onion (chopped)
3 on the vine tomatoes (diced)
5 bell peppers (only chop up one!!!)
1 jar of your fav spaghetti sauce (my fave is the tomato basil)
1 bag of veggie meat (found in the freezer section, or you can use real mean, whatever suits your conscience)
handful of shrimp (optional)
1 bag of frozen riced cauliflower
salt and pepper
provolone cheese (optional)
whatcha do:
preheat oven to 350F
in a pot big enough for 4 bell peppers, add your 4 whole, uncut, bell peppers; fill with water. heat on high until the water begins to boil.
remove from heat, you don’t want them to be too mushy, they have to bake still.
take your peppers out of the water, chop the tops off and gut them.
you’ll need a casserole type dish or a bankable pot thats at least as tall at the bell peppers to bake them in once they are stuffed
OKAY now for the stuffing :
sauté diced onion until they’re soft
add 1 diced bell pepper
add diced tomatoes
sprinkle with salt for taste
dump all of this into a large mixing bowl
no need to clean the pan, drizzle with olive oil and cook your pealed shrimp
once cooked chop up the shrimp and add to the mixing bowl with the rest of the goods
SAME pan once again, evoo, sauté veggie meat until its no longer frozen
add the jar of sauce to the meat
when its warm, remove from heat and add to the bowl
STIR THAT BOWL
at this point you have your topless peppers in your baking dish
spoon the contents of the mixing bowl into your peppers
option to add provolone cheese on top of your peppers
cover each pepper with the top that you cut off
cover the pot with a lid or aluminum foil
bake for 25-30 minutes
Spaghetti Squash with Tomatoes and Shrimp
ingredients (for 2):
1 spaghetti squash
olive oil
2 medium tomatoes, diced
10 peeled raw shrimp (defrosted if you’re using frozen)
2 Tbs pine nuts
3/4 Cup fresh basil
salt & pepper
whatcha do:
preheat oven to 400F
Chop the ends off of your squash then slice into 1in rings. Season both sides with salt and pepper and a little drizzle of olive oil. Bake in oven for 45 minutes: flip half way through.
white the squash is baking, toast pine nuts in a pan until golden, drizzle a little olive oil and add the diced tomatoes. stir often
scoot your tomatoes to the side while you sauté the shrimp, 1 minutes per side
season with salt and pepper, add chopped basil
by now your squash should be ready, remove from oven. Using a fork scrape out the inside of the squash and discard the exterior.
spread out the spaghetti on the pan it just baked on, back in the oven to broil for 3 minutes
remove from oven and add the squash to the pan with everything else
add salt if needed!
eat up
Peaches & Coconut Cream Ice Cream
ingredients:
5 medium peaches (sliced and frozen)
1 can lite coconut cream
blender or food processor
whatcha do:
add peaches and coconut cream to your blender or food processor.
blend until smooth
DONE
enjoy right away or freeze… best consistency is when it’s been in the freezer for an hour. Keep in mind it will get very hard if frozen for longer and will need need to thaw a bit before you can scoop.
P.S. sub peaches for frozen watermelon for watermelon ice cream - very refreshing :)
