Steam or boil your cauliflower until soft. Add your cooked cauliflower and butter to a food processor or blender & puree until you get the consistency of mashed or smashed potatoes. Add sea salt to taste, as you puree your "taters". Serve hot.
Feel free to add garlic for garlic "mashed potatoes". There is no need to add (non-dairy) milk, but unsweetened almond milk works best if you need some extra moisture. Coconut oil (in place of butter) is optional, but you can kind of taste the "coconut" flavor ;) Enjoy the MANY benefits of this starch-free, liver-loving, cruciferous veggie mash!! Seriously you guys!!! THERE IS NO EXCUSE why you cannot have a HEALTHY HOLIDAY from this point forward without compromising flavor!! This recipe is AHHHHHmazing!!!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM CAREEN'S KITCHEN! NOTE: If you have Candida overgrowth and you are a under my care, make sure I have cleared you to add dates before adding those to this recipe. INGREDIENTS: 3 ½ cups Onion, diced 2 ½ cups Celery, diced 1 cup Granny Smith apple, cored and diced 1/4 cup Dates, chopped into small pieces (optional and only if you are cleared to eat dates) 2 cups Almond flour or meal 1/2 cup Pecans or walnuts, chopped 2 tsp Sage 2 tsp Thyme 1/4 tsp Marjoram 1/4 tsp Rosemary 1/4 tsp Pepper 1/2 tsp Salt 3 Tbsp Butter or ghee 3 Tbsp Coconut oil 3 Eggs, whisked Preheat oven to 350.
Add butter and coconut oil to a skillet and heat over medium heat. Add onion, celery, apple and herbs and saute over medium heat until onions are translucent. Remove from heat and add all other ingredients, except eggs, to your mixture. Once everything is mixed well, add whisked eggs, mix thoroughly and transfer to your baking dish. Bake at 350F for 45 minutes – 1 hour or until the top is browned. Easy! NOTE: Add dates only if you are Candida-free. If you are a under my care, make sure I have cleared you to add dates so that you do not go backwards on your health. If you have a cast iron skillet or Le Creuset dish that can go from stove-top to oven, you can saute, mix and bake everything in this 1 dish. Even the ORGANIC stuff from Costco has 22 grams of sugar per 2 Tbsp! So, I’ve made my own the last few years. It's safe for those of you on a Candida Detox or with blood sugar issues. Please note, there is still some natural sugar in the cranberries themselves, so it is wise to only have cranberry sauce if you are at least 1 month into your Candida Detox. This also makes a killer topping for my Raw Vegan Cheesecake! INGREDIENTS: 4 cups fresh cranberries 2 cups water 4-6 drops Nature's Sunshine Organic Orange essential oil or 2+ Tbsp orange zest 1+ cup Swerve (sweeten to taste) If using orange zest, grate & set aside.
NOTE: If using Orange essential oil, be sure it is organic & safe to ingest. NEVER orally ingest a brand you pick up from a health food store without knowing it is 100% pure & safe for ingestion. All essential oils are NOT created equal. You are safe to use the Nature's Sunshine Organic Orange essential oil I've named above in your cooking/recipes. Place cranberries, water & Swerve in a medium saucepan. Over medium to high heat, cook until the cranberries burst, then lower heat to simmer 15 more minutes. If using orange zest, stir it in while your cranberries simmer. If using the orange essential oil, add it after you turn the heat off. Add a little extra Swerve if you like your cranberry sauce sweeter. I add a large spoonful of RAW honey at the end (but I am not on a Candida Detox anymore). Some cranberries are quite juicy, so if your finished mixture is pretty runny, drain off some of the liquid. Blend with a (hand or high-powered) blender if you like your cranberry sauce completely smooth! Chill and serve. I like to make it the night before so it’s really cold & “jellied” for serving the next day. Why wait until Thanksgiving to make this?! It makes a great dessert, dessert topping or side dish all year round :) NOTE: If you are not on a strict Candida Detox, you could use RAW honey in place of Swerve (or half Swerve, half honey). *Stevia does NOT do well in this recipe, as it has somewhat of a bitter taste & cranberries are naturally tart/bitter, as well. No bueno ;) Serves 4-6 depending upon serving size. PLEASE DON'T BE INTIMIDATED by this recipe. It looks long, but is quite easy. There are 2 crust options plus a few things that need explanation. I've also listed some options for toppings to get you thinking... get creative & let us know if you come up with another topping or alternative we can share! Eat it for breakfast!!! It's 100% healthy- loaded with protein, good fats, fiber & more :) CRUST (cooked) - safe for Candida Detox: 1 3/4 cup almond flour ¼ cup coconut flour ¼ tsp sea salt (pink) 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed 1 Tbsp raw coconut oil 1 egg (large) 3 Tbsp cold cubed butter Hot water (if needed) Preheat Oven to 350F. Grease a pie pan with coconut oil and set aside. Start your teapot in case you need warm water. Mix together the almond flour, buckwheat flour, coconut flour, ground flax seeds and salt in a large mixing bowl. Next, add your Tablespoon of coconut oil and mix. Beat the egg and cube your cold butter and add them to the dough one at a time. Knead your dough. If the dough is too crumbly, add 1 Tablespoon at a time of warm water until you get the proper consistency to start rolling your dough. I used 3 Tablespoons of warm water. Form your dough into a ball, sprinkle some (almond or buckwheat) flour on a large piece of parchment paper and roll the dough out. You can also just knead the dough and press it directly into your pie pan. Bake at 350 until golden brown. Remove from oven, let cool, then add your filling! CRUST (raw) -if you've been cleared to eat dates: 2 cups raw nuts (100% pecans or half pecan/half walnut is great) 2 cups dates (pitted) 1 pinch sea salt (pink) Grease your pie pan with coconut oil. This prevents the crust from sticking. Add the nuts, dates & salt into a food processor and blend until well processed "dough". Roll your ball of dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper with a rolling pin until your crust is flattened to the size of your pie pan. Place your pie pan upside down on your crust (top parchment paper removed) and then quickly flip your pie pan over, holding the crust into the pan. Press & form the dough into your pie pan. Don't bake it (it's RAW crust). You're ready to add your filling! RAW "CREAM CHEESE" FILLING: 3 cups Raw cashews, soaked 4+ hours 3/4 cup Virgin coconut oil 3 Tbsp. Vanilla extract (alcohol-free) Sweetener: 4-6 droppers liquid Vanilla Stevia (to taste) OR Monkfruit (to taste) - neither will feed yeast; use RAW honey (to taste) if you're not on a Candida Detox. 1+ cup Fresh pressed lemon juice 1/2 cup purified water 1 tsp. NATURE'S SUNSHINE Psyllium Hulls Combination Powder Add all ingredients to a high powered blender and blend until you have a whipped cream cheese consistency. If using stevia, start with only 2 droppers full of liquid vanilla stevia and only 1/4 cup of water. You can always add more sweetener or water, as needed. Pour the filling over your crust and refrigerate (or freeze) at least 3 hours. Your pie will keep 1 week max in the fridge and slightly longer in the freezer. DO NOT bake/cook this pie. Refrigeration or freezing sets it and then it's ready to eat! Topping Suggestions: Fresh Berry: Add fresh or defrosted berries to a blender, chopping or pureeing to whatever consistency you like. Add liquid Stevia or Swerve to add sweetness (if necessary). Chocolate drizzle: Lightly melt together equal parts raw coconut oil & raw cacao powder over LOW heat, plus (sweetener of your choice): liquid vanilla Stevia or Swerve or Monkfruit, to taste. Add almond butter if you want "chocolate-peanut butter" topping ;) Drizzle to your liking. Cranberry Topping: Try my 15 Minute Cranberry Sauce Great for Thanksgiving & Christmas! Pumpkin/Thanksgiving: Blend together 3/4 cup organic pumpkin puree (canned or fresh), 3/4 cup organic coconut milk (or cream to make thicker), 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice, 2 drops Nature's Sunshine Cinnamon essential oil, 1 tsp organic vanilla extract (alcohol-free) & 2 Tbsp Swerve. Drizzle & serve for Thanksgiving dinner! *You MUST only use a brand of essential oils you are certain is 100% pure & safe to ingest; Both of these can be purchased through my online store & meet that criteria. NOTE: This "cheesecake" needs to stay refrigerated or frozen. Keep your toppings separate and add to each slice when you serve it. Now you can eat cheesecake ANY TIME OF DAY & stay healthy with ZERO guilt or compromise!!!! ...You're welcome :) RAW PIE CRUST -if you've been cleared to eat dates: 2 cups raw nuts (100% pecan or 1/2 pecan & 1/2 walnut is YUM!) 2 cups dates (pitted) 1 pinch sea salt (pink) Grease your pie pan with coconut oil. This prevents the crust from sticking. Add the nuts, dates & salt into a food processor and blend until well processed "dough". Roll your ball of dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper with a rolling pin until your crust is flattened to the size of your pie pan. Place your pie pan upside down on your crust (top parchment paper removed) and then quickly flip your pie pan over, holding the crust into the pan. Press & form the dough into your pie pan. Don't bake it (it's RAW crust). You're ready to add your filling! COOKED PIE CRUST - safe for Candida Detox: 1¼ cup almond flour (use 1 3/4 cup almond flour if no buckwheat/cassava/tigernut flour) ½ cup buckwheat, cassava or tigernut flour ¼ cup coconut flour ¼ tsp sea salt (pink) 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed 1 Tbsp raw coconut oil 1 egg (large) 3 Tbsp cold cubed butter Hot water (if needed) Preheat Oven to 350F. Grease a pie pan with coconut oil and set aside.
Start your teapot in case you need warm water. Mix together the almond flour, buckwheat flour, coconut flour, ground flax seeds and salt in a large mixing bowl. Next, add your Tablespoon of coconut oil and mix. Beat the egg and cube your cold butter and add them to the dough one at a time. Knead your dough. If the dough is too crumbly, add 1 Tablespoon at a time of warm water until you get the proper consistency to start rolling your dough. I used 3 Tablespoons of warm water. Form your dough into a ball, sprinkle some (almond or buckwheat) flour on a large piece of parchment paper and roll the dough out. You can also just knead the dough and press it directly into your pie pan. Bake crust at 350 until golden brown. Remove from oven, let cool, then add your (RAW) filling (if you're using a RAW filling like my RAW cheesecake). Bake the entire crust/pie at 350 if it is pumpkin or other cooked pie. Be sure to cover the edges with foil halfway through so your crust doesn't burn :) This is a tried and true recipe shared with us from my sweet sister-in-Christ, Amanda. She's created and mastered some FANTASTIC Candida-Detox recipes having gone through this journey herself. And she's generously shared this gem to help us all have a happier, healthier holiday!! Preheat Oven to 350F Take out two pieces of parchment paper to roll the dough with. Pull out a pie pan and butter the bottom and sides. Make sure your teapot is on for the warm water. Add all dry ingredients to a medium-sized mixing bowl (or electric mixer) and mix thoroughly. Add the coconut oil and mix again. Beat your eggs and then add them to the mixture. Next, cube your cold butter and add it to the dough. Knead the dough with your hands. If the dough is too crumbly, add a Tablespoon or more of warm water from the teapot until you get the dough to a consistency to star rolling. I used ~3 Tablespoons of warm water. Roll your dough into a ball, place on the parchment paper, and start rolling the dough out with a rolling pin. You can alternatively just knead the dough and then pack it into the pie pan instead of rolling it flat before placing it in the pan. Once the dough is in your pan, poke it with a fork on the bottom and around the sides. Set aside and prepare your filling. MAKE THE FILLING: 2 cups Cooked, blended organic sugar pumpkin (Or 1, 15oz. can Organic Pumpkin Puree) 3 Extra large eggs 1 can UNSWEETENED Coconut milk 3/4 cup Swerve or Monkfruit sweetener 1 full dropper liguid Vanilla Stevia Extract (or use more Stevia or Monkfrut if you dislike Stevia) 1/4 tsp. Himalayan (pink) sea salt 1 Tbsp. Ground cinnamon 1/4 tsp. Ground ginger 1/8 Ground clove 1 Tbsp. Pumpkin Pie spice 1/4 tsp. Ground nutmeg Add all ingredients to a mixer and mix well. Pour the filling into the pie pan with the crust and place in the preheated oven. Cook 60 minutes or until slightly browned and set. Remove your pie from the oven and cool in fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight. Top with my Keto Whipped Cream & surprise your family & friends with how delicious "healthy" can be!!
