    Honey Glazed Shrimp Sheet Pan Dinner

    Course entree, Main Course
    Prep Time 15 minutes
    Cook Time 35 minutes
    Total Time 50 minutes
    Servings 2

    Equipment

    • 1 Medium bowl
    • 1 whisk
    • 1 jar
    • 1 large rimmed baking sheet

    Ingredients

    • ⅓ cup honey
    • ¼ cup coconut aminos
    • 1 ½ teaspoons onion powder
    • Sea salt & white pepper to taste
    • 1 pound uncooked shrimp thawed if frozen, peeled & deveined
    • 2 cipollini onions (or 2 small yellow or red onions) sliced into onion rings
    • 4 ounces crimini mushrooms sliced in half
    • ½ medium sized celery root peeled and diced
    • 1 small turnip peeled and diced
    • 1 cup zucchini sliced into bite size pieces
    • 1 – 2 small patty pan squashes sliced
    • 1 cup winter squash (red kabocha, delicata, honeynut, butternut, etc.) diced
    • 1 – 2 tablespoons refined coconut oil (or melted ghee, tallow or olive oil)
    • Lemon wedges & chopped cilantro for garnish

    Instructions

    • Make the Marinade: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, coconut aminos, ½ teaspoon of the onion powder and sea salt and white pepper to taste. You will use half of this marinade to marinate the shrimp. Save the other half for cooking the shrimp.
    • Marinate the Shrimp: Place the shrimp in a medium size glass bowl. Add 1/2 of the marinade and toss well to combine. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. To make the shrimp even more flavorful you can marinate them up to 8 hours, or overnight. Pour the rest of the marinade into a glass jar and refrigerate.
    • Preheat the oven to 375-degrees F. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • Season and roast the vegetables: Add the vegetables to the baking sheet and toss with the coconut oil. Season with the remaining onion powder and sea salt and white pepper to taste. Toss again. Arrange the vegetables in a single layer. Roast for 15 minutes. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Flip the vegetables over. Return to oven and roast for 15 more minutes.
    • Add shrimp + bake: Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Use a spatula or tongs to carefully move the vegetables over to one side to make room for the shrimp. Add the shrimp to the baking sheet. Discard the used marinade. Drizzle the shrimp with the remaining unused marinade in the jar. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and firm to the touch.
    • Serve the roasted vegetables and shrimp with lemon wedges and garnished with the cilantro. This goes well served over some fluffy cooked white rice.
    • Enjoy!

    Vegan Potato Soup

    Course Lunch, Main Course, Soup
    Keyword dinner, lunch, main course, soup
    Servings 4

    Ingredients

    • 3 medium white flesh sweet potatoes such as Hannah or Japanese sweet potatoes peeled (or an equivalent amount of white potatoes)
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 cup onion diced (about 1 medium onion)
    • Sea salt
    • 2 stalks celery diced
    • 2 carrots peeled and diced
    • 4 cups vegetable broth
    • 1 6 oz package Lightlife Tempeh Smoky Bacon
    • Avocado oil
    • 1 cup thinly sliced leeks
    • ½ cup coconut cream

    Instructions

    • Peel the sweet potatoes. Cut into small dice pieces and place them in a pot of cold, salted water.
    • Heat a large skillet or large soup pot over medium high heat. Add the olive oil, onion and a pinch of the sea salt. Cook and stir for a few minutes. Add the carrots, celery and another pinch of sea salt. Cook and stir for five minutes. If the vegetables begin to stick to the pan add a small splash of vegetable broth or water.
    • Meanwhile, in a medium size saucepan, warm the vegetable broth over medium heat. If you used a skillet, transfer the cooked vegetables to a large soup pot. Drain the potatoes and add them to the pot. Add the warmed vegetable broth. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, then reduce the heat to simmer on medium low, lightly covered, for 20 minutes.
    • Cut the tempeh bacon strips in half. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add about a tablespoon of the avocado oil, then add the tempeh bacon in a single layer. Fry for a few minutes on one side, then turn to fry on the other side for a few more minutes, until lightly browned on both sides. Remove and transfer to a plate to cool. Chop the cooked tempeh into smaller pieces.
    • To the soup pot, add the coconut cream, 1 teaspoon of sea salt and a few grinds of freshly ground black pepper. Puree one third of the soup by using an immersion blender. Or, place a few cups of the soup into a blender and blend until smooth. Return the pureed soup to the pot and stir to combine.
    • In the large skillet, heat another 2 teaspoons of the avocado oil. Add the leeks, a pinch of sea salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook and stir for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the leeks are very tender and lightly browned. Serve the soup hot, topping each bowl with a tablespoon of the tempeh bacon bits and a couple of teaspoons of sautéed leeks.
    • Enjoy!
