Recipe Monday: Sweet and Salty Brussel Sprouts

Mmm Brussel Sprouts. With almonds and brown sugar? Swoon. My dad made these over our Christmas holiday and I fell in love, and this was my first time trying to them on my own!

Ingredients you will need:

Brussel sprouts

Brown sugar

Sliced Almonds

Butter or margarine

 

Begin by putting the almonds on a baking sheet with a small layer of brown sugar, then put in the oven at 350 degrees until brown. While they roast, boil your brussel sprouts.

Once the almonds are roasted, take them out and once the brussel sprouts are boiled and soft, strain them. Put both into the same pan, adding butter and more brown sugar to taste. Serve and enjoy!

mmmm mmmm DELECTABLE.

Recipe Monday: Pizza with Home Made Dough!

I know, I’ve done a pizza recipe already. Kind of. This time, though, I’ve got a recipe to make the dough! and a different (all vegan) pizza!

Okay, so For the dough you will need the following ingredients:

4 1/2 cups  all-purpose flour
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon  instant yeast
1/4 cup  olive oil
1 3/4 cups water, boiling

Mix these ingredients in a large mixing bowl until dough is, well, dough-ey. Now, preheat your oven to 350 degrees while you chop vegetables.

Spread your dough across your pan (I know ours isn’t round, we should get on that…) with the help of a bit of flour to keep it from sticking  then spread tomato sauce or pizza sauce (even marinara/pasta sauce works) across your dough.

Then, add your cheese and toppings!

My roommates and I made two pizzas; one my favorite spinach and ricotta and another with onion, tomatos, yellow peppers, spinach, and vegan cheese.

Then, place the pizza/s in the oven and cook! Until the crusts are golden brown. Once they’ve reached that shade of perfection take them out, let cool for 5 minutes or so, then cut and dig in!

YUM! Also, the vegan cheese melted sooo well, it was a perfect gooey cheese! Enjoy!
