- Chocolate Date Peppermint Mouse
-
- 1/2 cup Natural Delights Pitted Whole Medjool Dates about 7-8
- 6 ounces dark chocolate chunks
- 12 ounces silken tofu drained and patted dry
- 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract plus more to taste
- Pinch of salt
- Black pepper, to taste
- Crushed candy canes optional, for garnish
- Directions
- Soak the dates in a bowl of hot water for about 20 minutes to soften them. While the dates are soaking, place the chocolate in a heat-proof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (make sure the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl). Stir occasionally until the chocolate has completely melted. Once the dates have softened, remove them from the water and gently pat dry, then roughly chop and add to a high-speed blender along with the tofu and coconut milk. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides with a spatula as needed. Add the melted chocolate, coconut milk, peppermint extract, and salt and blend again until the mixture is silky smooth. Taste and add more peppermint extract, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, if desired, blending after each addition. Divide evenly into four small jars or shallow glasses. Chill for at least 30 minutes. Top with dairy-free whipped cream and crushed candy canes just before serving. Enjoy!

Golden Beet & Pomegranate Salad
Cook the beets - either boil them for 45 minutes or roast them at 375 degrees for an hour. Let cool. Peel and dice into 1/2 inch cubes.
In a medium skillet over high heat, bring diced beets, onion, vinegar, broth, liqueur, sugar, and orange peel to a boil, stirring often, until liquid is reduced to 2 tbsp, about 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
Stir pomegranate seeds into the beet mixture and salt to taste. Serve on top of salad greens on individual plates. Sprinkle with feta cheese.
