Peel ripe bananas, chop and freeze in a plastic bag until hard. Place banana chunks in a blender with frozen blueberries. Add very small amounts of plant-milk just so the blender will start mixing the fruit. Add small amounts of plant milk (or water) as needed. This is a fantastic dessert! Go ahead, eat the whole bowl!

Saute onion and garlic in a pan without oil. Once translucent, add thinly sliced zucchini, non-gmo corn and canned smoked tomatoes. Once warm, use as a burrito filling or pasta topping.

Blueberries are so simple to store! Take fresh blueberries and place on a baking sheet. Sort for any stems and leaves then set in your freezer until frozen (a few hours). Place the berries in a ziplock bag in the freezer and you have berries all year round!

Veggie burger, oil-free potato "fries" and salad.

Bake a sweet potato in the oven for one hour at 400 degrees. Make sure to poke holes in the potato with a fork before cooking. Once soft to the touch, remove the potato and slice open down the middle. Insert fresh blueberries, strawberries or raspberries then wait until cool to eat. So sweet it could be for dessert! Use Japanese sweet potatoes for an even sweeter taste.
