Ingredients
1 can cannellini beans
2 c. cubed butternut squash
1 c. red grapes, halved or quartered
1 jalapeno, deseeded & minced
1 scallion
1/2 oz. cilantro
1 lime
1 tbsp. vegan butter
2 tsp. agave
2 oz. shredded green cabbage
6 tortillas
2 tsp. hot sauce
3 tbsp. pumpkin seeds
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Drain and rinse the beans. Add beans and squash to a large nonstick skillet and cover with an inch of cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and boil until squash is fork-tender, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain the squash, return to skillet and mash with a fork. Transfer the mashed squash and beans to a bowl and wipe the skillet clean.
Halve or quarter the grapes. Toss with 1 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast until grapes are soft, fragrant, and slightly wrinkled, about 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
Mince the jalapeno and thinly slice the scallion. Finely chop the cilantro leaves. Combine the jalapeno with half the cilantro in a bowl with juice from half of the lime. After grapes have cooled, add them to the bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper and set aside.
Return the skillet to medium-high heat with 1 tbsp. olive oil. Add the mashed squash and beans and smooth into an even layer in the pan. Reduce heat to medium and cook undisturbed until bottom is well browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the butter and agave and stir to combine. Season with a pinch of salt.
Add the remaining chopped cilantro, remaining lime juice, shredded cabbage, and a pinch of salt to a medium bowl. Toss the slaw to combine. Wrap the tortillas in a dish towel or foil and pop in the oven to warm.
Lay the warm tortillas on a clean work surface and divide the refried butternut between them. Toss with salsa, slaw, and pepitas. Drizzle with hot sauce.

Mafaldine Pasta
Ingredients
1 garlic clove
1/4 oz. fresh tarragon
1/4 c. walnuts
2 oz. leeks, sliced (about 1 large leek)
6 oz. mafaldine (or other long, wide) pasta
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 tbsp. vegan butter
2 oz. soft cashew cheese (i.e. Treeline Herb & Garlic)
1 lemon
4 oz. baby arugula
Directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Peel and mince the garlic. Pick the tarragon leaves from the stems and roughly chop.
Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the walnuts. Toast the nuts, shaking the pan frequently, until fragrant and lightly browned, about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the toasted walnuts to a plate.
Return the skillet to medium-low heat with 1 tbsp. olive oil. Add the sliced leeks and cook, stirring occasionally until softened but not browned, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Once the water is boiling, add the pasta and cook until al dente. Reserve 1/3 c. of pasta water, drain the pasta and return the cooked pasta to the large pot, off the heat.
Add the minced garlic and Dijon mustard to the skillet with the melted leeks and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer the leek mixture to the pot with the pasta and add the butter, cashew cheese, and reserved pasta water. Using tongs, toss the pasta until the butter and cheese melt and the pasta is evenly coated, about 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt as needed.
Halve the lemon and cut half into wedges. Add half the lemon juice and baby arugula to the pot with the pasta. Using tongs, toss the pasta until the arugula is evenly coated. Divide the pasta with melted leeks between large plates. Top with tarragon, toasted walnuts and a pinch of pepper. Serve with lemon wedges.

Vegan "Egg" Batter
Ingredients
1-12.3 oz. package of Mori-Nu Silken Tofu, Firm (drained)
1/4 c. plain, unsweetened non-dairy milk with a neutral flavor (i.e. soy, flax, oat)
2 tbsp. nutritional yeast
1 tbsp. cornstarch, arrowroot starch or tapioca starch
1 tsp. tahini or cashew butter
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. turmeric
1/2 to 3/4 tsp. salt
1 generous pinch of kala namak (black salt)
Directions
The possibilities are endless! Use as a batter for omelets, quiche or frittata. Mix with diced, sautéed veggies and pour into muffin cups. Generally speaking, bake at 350 to 375 degrees. If you're using mini muffin tins, 25 to 30 minutes might be enough. If you're using a pie plate for quiche, you may need close to an hour. Look for a golden brown on the top and a knife that comes out clean.

1/2 c. nutritional yeast
3 tbsp. all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. tapioca or arrowroot starch
2 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. ground mustard
1-2 tsp. salt
2-3 tsp. paprika, smoked or regular based on preference
Add other flavor profiles, like chipotle, Cajun, or garam masala!

1/3 to 1/2 c. powder mix
2 tbsp. olive oil or vegan butter

To make the powder mix, blend all ingredients using a food processor until powdered. It should take 2 to 3 minutes. You'll likely need to scrape the sides a few times with a rubber spatula. When ready, mix shouldn't have more than a slight grittiness.
To make the mac and cheeze dish, cook pasta according to directions and set aside. In a saucepan, melt a couple tablespoons of olive oil or vegan butter. Once melted, add the powder mix and stir to form a roux. Add non-dairy milk a bit at a time until a cheeze sauce forms. Add the pasta, stir to coat and keep on the heat for a few more minutes.
