36 APRIL 2022 Plant - based Wellness Owner of YouCare- SelfCare, a private wellness practice specializing in plant- based lifestyle and disease prevention. youcare-selfcare.com BY MIRIAM HAHN D id you know that adding color to your meals can help you live a longer, healthier life? The compounds that give plants their colors are called phytonutrients. They have potent anti-cancer and anti-heart disease effects, and each color provides various benefits. No one color is superior to another, which is why balance is important. Buy organic when you can and try and avoid peeling the skins off of produce – that is where the phytonutrients are most concentrated. Next time you go to the store, try to fill your basket with all the colors – white is important too! Here are a few examples: • Red: strawberries, cranberries, raspberries, beets, watermelon, grapes, peppers, onions • Orange/yellow: carrots, sweet potatoes, peppers, oranges, bananas, pineapple, pumpkin • Green: spinach, avocados, asparagus, artichokes, broccoli, alfalfa sprouts, kale, cabbage • Blue/purple: blueberries, blackberries, elderberries, grapes, raisins, eggplant, plums • White: onions, cauliflower, garlic, leeks, parsnips, daikon radish, mushrooms Add some color to your Easter dishes Bunny Almond Cookies Ingredients • 2 cups almond flour • 1 tsp. baking powder • ¼ cup water • 6 tbsp. coconut sugar • 1 tsp. salt • ½ tsp. sugar • Black or brown decorating gel 1. Preheat oven to 350F. 2. Mix the almond flour, coconut sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. 3. Add the water and stir until well blended. 4. Shape out six round balls and flatten to form the bunny face. Now form out two ears for each cookie. 5. Sprinkle a small amount of sugar on each cookie. Then, using a butter knife, make a crisscross design on the face and ears. Make the eyes and mouth with the decorator gel. Directions Vegan Deviled Eggs 1. Add the potatoes (whole) to a large pot of water and boil for 25 minutes. 2. Put the ice in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Drain the potatoes and add them to the ice bowl. Let sit for five minutes, then drain. 3. Cut the potatoes in half. Using a melon baller, scoop out some potato in each half, positioning it off- center to resemble an egg. Put the potato that you scoop out in a medium bowl. 4. Mash the potato, then add the mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, salt, turmeric and pepper. Stir and mash until the mixture is very smooth. 5. Put the filling in a piping bag with a tip (or a Ziploc baggie with the end snipped off). Fill each potato hole with the egg mixture. 6. Sprinkle with the smoked paprika and fresh dill.
