Hello dairy freeERS and lactose intolerant loved ones, I hear declare today a miracle for you, me, and all things low fat and calorie eclipsing! B-FIT4U has single handedly come up with some dreamy creamy recipes for you that taste like you are jumping into the dairy pond, but you are NOT! So you save your belly a headache if you are intolerant, and you save your waistline and your cholesterol if you are trying to be healthy....which IS what you are trying to do, or why would you be reading this blog, right? Correct! So first tomato bisque easy peeeeasy: in a large soup pot add 2 tbs spoons olive oil, 1 onion chopped, 2 garlic cloves chopped, 2 tsp sea salt, 2 tsps italian seasoning and 1 tsp basil, 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper (adds a hint of spicy, yum!). Sauté everything until fragrant and translucent. Add 1 can diced tomatoes-28oz, with its juice, 3 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth if you are vegan, bring to a boil. Stir and reduce heat once boiling. Now add contents in batches to blender to purée, then return to pot. You want a smooth consistency. Now add 1 can of coconut milk ( not the stuff in the milk section to drink, the canned coconut milk) stir until creamy, adjusting salt and cracked black pepper. Now very important, bring back to a boil for about 10-15 minutes until all the liquid contents of pot reduces by half, leaving you with a creamy dreamy bisque! Add croutons and fresh basil to garnish and devour!!! Alfredo: 1 cauliflower head, chopped, 4 garlic cloves, chopped, 1 vidalia onion. Sea salt to taste, 2 cups almond milk, 2 tsp lemon juice, 1 cup vegan parmesan, black pepper and olive oil. Drizzle a a pan with olive oil and sauté onion and garlic until translucent. Boil water and add cauliflower for about 10min, or until fork tender and drain. Transfer garlic, onion and cauliflower to a blender and add almond milk, vegan parmesan,( I like GO Veggie brand), and blend till smooth. Add back into sauté pan to warm through, and add salt, pepper to taste and additional parmesan if needed to thicken and get that Alfredo creamy creaminess we all love. Toss with your favorite whole wheat noodle and a sprinkle of parsley and you have dinner! Happy weekend B-fitters!!
