Flaked Almond Tuna Salad from Oh She Glows

This turned out pretty well. I didn't have kelp granules, so I added dulse flakes. It tasted good, I don't know that it lent a fishy taste. I should try it with kelp next time. Her mayonnaise suggestions... read more >

Classic Hummus : page 89

This is a reliable, very standard hummus recipe. It calls for 5-10 drops of hot sauce, I used Sriracha. Depending on your personal tastes, it could easily use a lot more. The recipe calls for two cans of chickpeas, so you'll have a good amount of hummus (the Pita chip recipe that follows it will not give you near enough chips as written. Better have some crudites ready...)

Equipment needed: food processor

Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bites : page 235

These are easy to assemble, no bake and can be ready pretty fast. They are balls of nut butter (I used sunflower), coconut oil, chocolate chips, almond flour and ground oats. The recipe calls for gluten free oats, which makes the final product gluten free as well. These were inhaled by two male non-vegan friends. They really do taste rich like cookie dough, so the yield is perfect. You can't eat too many.

No special equipment needed, other than your freezer.

Spicy Toasted Pita Chips : page 91

These only require a handful of ingredients, and can be ready in 15 minutes. And they are awesome. The recipe would be very easy to double or triple, which would be a good idea for guests. The yield is pretty small. I made these to go with Angela's hummus.
