Smashed Potatoes Recipe
plant based, oil free, gluten free, refined sugar-free, vegan

Ingredients:

Instructions:

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add in baby potatoes. Boil potatoes for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, drain the excess water and let cool.
Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread potatoes out on the baking sheet and gently press each potato to form a disk using a sturdy cup or back of a spatula. Place an additional piece of parchment paper over the potatoes to help reduce sticking when flattening.
If the potatoes are too dry, brush the tops with water and then sprinkle over the rest of the ingredients, flipping to evenly distribute seasonings and herbs on both sides.
Place in the oven and bake for 45 minutes, flipping half way.

Add frozen banana and fruit to a food processor (or blender, but this only worked well in the food processor for me).

Best to eat fresh, but mixture can be frozen if necessary.
Serve topped with chopped nuts, fresh or dried fruit, chia seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds, etc.

Ingredients for Matcha Latte

Instructions for Latte:

Add Chai Matcha Mix or Matcha Powder to a large mug.
Pour in hot water and whisk well to combine and remove lumps.
Add in the heated plant-based milk and honey and stir well.
Make sure to stir as you drink. The Matcha powder does not dissolve, but sits as a suspension in the liquid so to avoid it all settling, I use a spoon to mix it up before each sip.
