Low fat vegan recipes

Healthy Low fat vegan recipes

From using a vegan diet to lose weight, to the symbiotic link between Diabetes and Vegan Diet, everyone it seems, is getting on the bandwagon in regards to using the vegan diet as a means for self improvement and increasing health and vitality.

Especially for those seeking to lower their cholesterol and to shed a few pounds, there happens to be an especial need for low fat vegan recipes and being a mucus-lean vegan myself, suffice it to say that information on such a subject is right up my alley.

The great thing about such a method of being vegan is that one need not worry excessively about measurements, calories etc, since most of the ingredients are low-fat or if in the case of the use of vegan items like Avocados, Nuts etc-have healthy fats with nil cholesterol levels, having a healthy diet with low fat vegan recipes is now within the reach of many.

Now, I will give the following recipes for low fat vegan meals to you.

Here are my favorites:

Low fat vegan recipes for Smoothies

"Chocolate" Milk

-10-15 medium dates

-3 ripe bananas.

-1 Young Coconut (I don't usually use the water inside of the nut although I heard it has some benefits, I have tested it on me to a not so good result but again we are all different)

-16 oz cold Water

Blend everything starting with the fruits then the coconut.

Papaya Passion

-1 medium Papaya

-1 red delicious apple

-5 dates (pitted)

Blend everything and prepare for something outta this world!


Strawberry Delight

-4-8 strawberries

-1-2 Bananas

-8-10 dates

My Milk Shake tastes much better than yours...!

-2 cups of Durian

-8 dates

-2 bananas

-1 tsp of Carob powder

Mango Magic

-1-2 ripe mangos (peeled)

-8 dates (pitted)

-Juice of one orange

Durian Deck

-24 oz of durian

-1/2 orange

-Blend both.

Well, there you have it. Thought you’d have to give up smoothies eh? Hope, I’ll be able to save you some money in buying less healthy and-as you’ll discover-not as tasty smoothies with these.

Low fat vegan recipes for Salad Dressings

Now, a raw-chef once stated that one's success with vegetarian diet plans may hinge on his/her choice of salad dressings. That considered, here are some other favorites.


Tom-Avo

-2 organic Roma or Hot House tomatoes

-2 big Avocadoes (pitted)

-2 tsp orange juice (freshly squeezed) 2 oz of water

Serving Suggestion: Chop some Red Cabbage say a cup or less finely and sprinkle into the soup


The Real Ranch Dressing:

-2 medium sized tomatoes

-2 young coconuts

-1/2 tsp of salt

-6 organic sun dried tomatoes

-I stalk of Celery

-1 tbs of lemon juice (optional)

Blend all and use as a dressing for a lettuce based salad. (Note: I recommend using one base leafy vegetable at a time, if desired a fruit veggie like cucumbers or organic bell peppers can be used along with shredded carrots)

Guacamole:

-2 avocadoes

-2 medium tomatoes

-1/2 orange

-Sea salt to taste

Process everything in your food processor.
I would say this can be an excellent first food for a child in the evenings. Serve in lettuce leaves or largely cut cabbage leaves a la Tortilla chips and dips.


Dress Down Dressing:

-1/2 lemon

-2-3 avocadoes

-Sea Salt to taste

-1/2 cup water

With the suggestions above, now that you may have to include more salads and vegetables into your vegetarian diet plans for a safe and healthy vegetarian recipes, these delicious ones will ensure that you not only enjoy how you make your meals but most importantly that they taste good.

Ensure to chop the base vegetables all to the same size to allow the flavors to intermingle. Pregnant and nursing mothers and growing Kids and teenagers should have a huge salad as often as possible. When making for the whole family you can double the ingredients in the recipes and increase the vegetables.

Low fat vegan recipes for Cooked Vegetables

The following recipes can serve as great transition meals for you and even healthy staples.

Porridge:

-Peel and Boil an average of 4 lbs of potatoes per average-sized person (they can be garnet yams or russet potatoes)
-When it is soft enough to be pierced, drain about 90 % of the broth away and now mash with 1-2 avocadoes per person.
-Now add salt to taste and enjoy. (Before eating this and also before mashing the avocadoes, you may choose to eat a stalk of celery for each person and wait 10-15 minutes before the main course)

Sweet Potato Pie

-Bake Garnet or Jewel yams (or Jersey Sweet Potatoes) in an oven heated to 475 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
-When it can be pierced, allow to cool.
-Upon cooling, peel the vegetable and mash with avocadoes and a little bit of sea salt.

This is actually a great simple dish of most tropical countries.

Rice-a-Roni

-Soak 3 cups of brown rice (per adult-1-2 per kid) overnight.
-Drain the water off.
-Boil the rice till soft (say 50 minutes)
-When it is about 80 % cooked you may add chopped celery. When all is boiled, add some mashed avocadoes or serve with eggplant hash or Okra ovation!

Coconut rice:

-This is a great Brazilian dish.
-Coconut milk is quite a satisfying drink in itself and can serve as a basis for smoothies and dressings as well. If using for a smoothie, I recommend only for ‘Chocolate Foras’ or for a substitute for ‘Real Ranch Dressing’
Don't combine with avocadoes.

How to make coconut milk

-Heat Drinking water to a medium temperature.
-Pour 24oz of water in a Blender..
-Add some pieces of chopped mature coconuts (the round brown ones available in most grocery stores)
-Now blend till it's finely chopped.
-Pour this solution through a strainer and press the residue to squeeze out the liquid.
-Blend this pulp again following the preceding steps.
And ensure to drain again pressing on the pulp to squeeze out the nutrients.
This is the coconut milk and may be used to replace milk for an infant.
Note it may be, the best choice is breast milk.

-Use a quart and a half of coconut milk as the liquid to boil your rice.
-You may add more water as needed.

-You can also make the milk the night before and then the next day blend half of it with 2 tomatoes and add this solution to the remaining half and also boil the rice in it for Spanish rice.

-You can slice some peeled zucchini or chopped celery into the rice and boil all together for a hearty delight.
