Truly Authentic Falafel Recipe
The secret to a great falafel recipe is not what you'd think. Real-deal authentic falafel is generally made in a meat grinder. CRAZY, I know! It's a super small investment for a lifetime of amazing falafel.
You can grind soaked chickpeas, herbs, and spices for falafel, hominy for tamales, and even make fruit purees.

Imagine, if you will, the perfect sandwich: warm slices of bread, followed by the creamy goodness of avocado and the crunch of fresh vegetables like cucumber, carrots, and green onion. With a hearty dollop of Pistachio Basil Sandwich Spread, every bite is literally bursting with flavor.
Trust me, when you try this sandwich I created for California Grown you won’t even miss the meat!

A Vitamix blender is a kitchen powerhouse, blending anything from silky smoothies to creamy soups with a powerful motor and precision blades. It can also be used to create nut butter, sauces, and even grind grains, offering a wide range of culinary possibilities. A Vitamix is an overall great gift choice for anyone who would love a multifunctional appliance to elevate their kitchen game.
Seriously Delicious Green Smoothie
Confession: I hate pretty much ALL green smoothies. However, this delicious green smoothie recipe is one I could enjoy every day!
