Moringa Cashew Dressing

Hi guys!

Today I made Moringa Cashew Dressing. It is a great alternative to processed salad dressing that you can purchase in store and you probably have many of the ingredients already in your pantry. This dressing is creamy and healthy! Not only does it have many health benefits like, anti -aging and immune boosting, but also it tastes great and brings color to your table.

This recipe is a similar to Nutrition Stripped‘s turmeric dressing recipe.

1/2 cup cashew butter
1 1/2 teaspoon Me Moringa Powder
3 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon minced ginger
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 garlic clove
Juice of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon sea salt 
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoon water (you can add more or less depending on the consistency you want)

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.

Scrub potatoes and pat dry. Slice into strips and put in a bowl. Add the oil and salt and mix until the potatoes are evenly coated. Put in air frier for 40 minutes at 400 degrees.

Moringa Gummies

Hey guys!

This recipe is easy and nutritious! The moringa packs these little gummies with antioxidants and Vitamin C, while the fruit juice you use packs it with many different nutrients.

1/4 cup gelatin powder
2 tbsp honey (optional)
1 cup fruit juice ( I used organic pineapple coconut juice)
1/2 tsp Me Moringa powder

In a small pot place fruit juice and honey. Heat it over low heat until it starts to simmer. Sprinkle the gelatin over the fruit mixture while whisking. Continue to do so until the mixture is smooth. Whisk the moringa powder in at the end.

As soon as the gelatin and moringa is mixed in, pour into molds and place in refrigerator or freezer until they harden. 

Enjoy!

Air Fried Onion Rings

Hi guys!

I bought an air fryer this week and I am so excited about it! It is easy to use and easy to clean! It cooks the items by circulating hot air around the food. It creates a crispy layer, similar to frying food. It is much healthier than frying, since you can use little to no oil.

2 Onions
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup panko bread crumbs 
salt and pepper to taste
2 eggs
2 tbsp milk

Set air fryer to 400 F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. 

Slice the onions into 1/2 inch rings and separate into rings.

 Make the egg wash by whisking the eggs and milk in a separate bowl. Put flour in one bowl with salt and pepper. Put the bread crumbs into a different bowl. 

Dip an onion ring into the egg wash. Make sure the onion ring is evenly coated. The transfer the onion ring into flour. Evenly coat the onion ring. Dip it back into the egg wash then into the bread crumbs. Place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all rings are evenly coated with flour and bread crumbs. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. 

Put in air fryer for 10 minutes or until golden brown.

I apologize for being MIA, but I was extremely busy with school. I just finished my last class yesterday and I am thrilled! It is bittersweet though, I will miss going to class and learning, but I am grateful to be done with homework for good.

I started my day off with a Moringa Latte. Moringa gives you a boost of energy while providing Vitamin C and antioxidants. The latte has an earthy taste, like most products that contain moringa, but the natural boost of energy is worth it!

2 tsp monk fruit sugar (or any kind of sugar)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp vital collagen powder
1 cup skim milk

In a cup, mix the water and moringa powder until it forms a paste. In a sauce pan add the milk, sugar, vanilla and collagen. Bring the milk to a simmer and whisk until frothy. Add the milk mixture to the moringa paste! Enjoy!
