Hoff's Quinoa Tater Tot Nachos
Yields: two hearty entrees meat-free, dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free

Ingredients:

Nacho "Meat"


  • 1 cup Quinoa
  • 1 1/2 cups Water
  • 1 tsp. Taco Seasoning
  • 1 tsp. Cumin
  • 1 tsp. smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp. Sea Salt
Cheese Sauce:
  • 1 15  oz. can Diced Potatoes (rinsed & drained)
  • 1 15  oz. can Carrots (rinsed & drained)
  • 1 Fire Roasted Red Pepper
  • 1 cup Plant Milk
  • Juice from half a Lemon
  • 3 tbsp. Nutritional Yeast
  • 1 tsp. smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp. Sea Salt
Nachos:
  • 1 bag Tater Tots
  • 1 15 oz. can Refried Beans
  • 1 Avocado (chopped/optional)
  • 2 tbsp. diced Onion
  • Slice Black Olives (optional)

Directions:
  1. Prepare Quinoa per the box directions, adding the rest of the ingredients, I prefer using the Instant Pot - throw all the ingredients in the IP, seal & lock lid, set Manual timer for 4 minutes, allow to Natural release for 10 minutes, then Quick release
  2. Prepare the Tater Tots per the directions (I throw in my air fryer)
  3. Meanwhile put Cheese Sauce ingredients into Vitamix & blend on high for 6 minutes
  4. Heat the Refried Beans
  5. When the Quinoa, Cheese & Beans are done, assemble your Nachos or Salad anyway you see fit
 Healthy Hoff: This is an indulgent meal that I would only enjoy 1-2 times per year, typically around the holidays.  However, just replace the Tater Tots with some chopped Lettuce & a handful of broken Corn Chips to enjoy anytime you want!

Hoff's Orange Risotto Rice (Instant Pot)

Hoff's Orange Risotto Rice (Instant Pot)
Yields: 4-6 Servings

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups Orange Juice

Hoff Thoughts: I don't actually chop my Cashews, I just throw them in a sandwich bag and bash them a bit with a heavy object, ah...Zen.  I also don't buy whole Cashews, too pricey!  Instead, I opt for their cheaper, yet still tasty alternative - Cashew pieces.  As I typically blend them to make sauces or break them into tiny pieces for a hit of crunch in dishes such as this, the cost effective pieces work out perfectly!

This Time I Really Found An Aluminum-Free Deodorant That Works!

I know, I know - I've made this proclamation before when I exclaimed that Thai Deodorant Stone Crystal Deodorant Stone was the real deal.

I'm sorry, I was...wrong.

At first, the stone was the bomb, worked beautifully...for a few months, then things started going south and I switched back to my aluminum-laced deodorant that I had shoved to the back of the cabinet in case things didn't work out.  But after using that for a few months, I would freak out over the aluminum and switch back to the stone, which worked for a few months and then slowly stopped working.

In retrospect, this was a disturbingly good thing.  What it forced me to realize was that I was absorbing all the chemical crap from the aluminum deodorant and that it was taking two months to work itself out of my system - that's why the stone appeared to be working. DISTURBING!

More motivated than ever to find an effective aluminum-free deodorant I tried one natural deodorant after another, until I finally found what I was looking for.

https://www.stemsoaps.com/Determined not to make the same misguided proclamation to all of you again, I used said product for over a year and I'm still in love with its effectiveness!

Despite searching the world, the answer turned out to be in my own backyard - made right here in Lakewood, Ohio - Stem Soaps has crafted the perfect aluminum-free deodorant!

While they have the cutest little shop that deserves a drop-in, don't despair non-Clevenlanders, all of their products including this coveted deodorant is available online!

Check it out!

Hoff Thoughts: Kick this up a notch by sprinkling Brown Sugar on top of the Pie with 10 minutes to go on the cooking time.

Doc: The Game Changers

The Game Changers, is a must see!  Particularly perfect for those interested in sports.


This doc follows a variety of athletes from endurance runners to weight lifters, to an Olympian who have gone plant-based in order to improve their performance, extend their careers and give them an edge over competitors.

There is some profanity peppered throughout as well as a “scientific” test around erections, so use best judgement if sharing with little ones.

Just as Forks Over Knives tapped into the mainstream consciousness, so too will this film.  

"Presented by James Cameron, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jackie Chan, Lewis Hamilton, Novak Djokovic and Chris Paul — a revolutionary new film about meat, protein and strength."

    3. Pour Hot Water over spoon to remove the Honey easily

      Hoff’s Raw Butternut Squash Soup

      Hoff’s Raw Butternut Squash Soup
      Serves: 2
      meat-free, dairy-free, egg-free, oil-free, soy-free, gluten-free

      Ingredients:
      • 3 cups chopped Butternut Squash
      • 3 cups Water
      • 1 tsp. Cumin
      • 1 tsp. Onion Powder
      • 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
      • 1 tsp. Sea Salt

      Directions:
      1. Place all ingredients in a Vitamix & blend on high for 3-4 minutes
      2. Serve immediately

      Hoff Thoughts: When eating raw, food should not exceed 118 degrees.  A Vitamix "should" raise the temperature of food 10 degrees every minute it is run. However, my Vitamix runs hotter; it's a good practice to use a meat thermometer to test how hot this soup gets based on how long you run your machine.  Three minutes for me = 115 degrees.

      Quick Bean Burritos

      With a little help from your panini press or my personal favorite Cuisinart Griddler, yummy bean burritos can be in your tummy in minutes!

      It just takes 4-6 organic flour tortillas, 1 15oz. can of fat free re-fried Beans (you'd think you'd want the vegetarian beans, but those usually contain oil, which you don't want) and a little Nutritional Yeast, salsa optional.

      Simply divide the beans evenly among the tortillas, sprinkle with Nutritional Yeast, roll like a burrito.  Cook using your favorite sandwich press until browned.

      So simple, I'm mad that I didn't think of this sooner!

      Keep it healthy!
