Chewy Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies (by Khatija Dadabhoy of Ghalia Organic Deserts)
On this episode of G Living GreenChefs, Boise Thomas helps out GreenChef Khatija Dadabhoy make vegan chocolate chip cookies. Life doesn’t get any better than this. Right.
You must think I’m a chocolate freak with all these chocolate recipes. And right you are. This drink
though is so easy and quick to make. No ice cream making required. The frozen bananas nicely replace
the need for ice cream and are much lower in fat. I like to always keep a few bananas in the freezer,
ready for a quick shake or quick skinny dip in a chocolate bath. Remember to peel your bananas first
before freezing them. I know, obvious, but you’d be surprised… The easiest way to handle them is to
brake them into bite size pieces when they are soft, before freezing them, and add the pieces to a zip
lock bag. Throw the bag in your freezer and forget about them. That is until you start hankering for one
of these. The nice thing about this is that it is actually healthy. (Shhhh….) Yes it’s true though. It’s full of
wonderful things like medium chain fatty acids, electrolytes, anti-oxidants, magnesium, copper, iron, B
vitamins, Potassium, Tryptophan, and on and on. Add the lecithin and vitamin E powder and it will really
be a power breakfast. Full of high quality calories and energy, it’ll get you going with a huge smile…

Mediterranean sushi is very similar to the original sushi in the way that it is presented but it has an entirely different and a standalone taste. It is completely vegan, made with unique vegetables like Lebanese eggplants, violin heads, and organic brown rice.
When I was first experimenting with raw cacao, it was challenging to use—it was not yet available in powder form, and the taste was unusual, so I was a bit unsure of it—but the dried beans actually reacted well to certain recipes, especially those where a soft texture is needed. This dish is pure classic in flavor.
These dumplings are perhaps the most stunning dish I have ever served—they are ultra simple and elegant, like a black-tie affair, but the concept is undeniably charming and sophisticated. Fortunately, they taste even better than they look and have became an instant classic of mine.
A perfect starter for any meal, this red pepper and garlic soup is completely raw and has a smoky flavor, thick creamy texture and has an absolutely delicious taste.
Serves about 4
For the Soup:
4 large red peppers, deseeded & chopped
1 cup chopped white onion
6 cloves garlic, grated
1/2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 tomatoes, sun blushed & chopped
4 Tbsp sunflower oil
8 strawberries
4 Tbsp of honey
Himalayan pink sea salt & fresh black pepper to taste
Frozen Chocolate Pudding with cinnamon-glazed plums, chocolate basil wafers, and vanilla bean–plum syrup (raw, vegan) Recipe by GreenChef Matthew Kenney
I dare anyone not to like chocolate and plums. Is that even possible? It seems that everyone loves chocolate these days. I like to combine it with seasonal fruits, particularly stone fruits, which provide a good balance with their tartness and also a slightly nontraditional pairing.
These tiny tamales, wrapped in a strand of corn dyed with beet juice, are so charming that they would be delicious filled with air—yet, the filling has a very silky body and deep flavor that is surprising, given the lack of heavy fats or dairy.
