I love sushi, but don't like the rice part of it as it adds the carbs that spike the blood sugar. I have also switched to coconut aminos instead of soy sauce because of the wheat in soy sauce. Coconut aminos are tasty and healthy! My son is coming in town soon and I am going to make these sushi rolls for him! Can't wait!<br />

<b>Veggie Rice Ingredients:</b><br />
2 packs of OAG Veggie-Rice<br />
1 T. raw tahini<br />
1/2" nub ginger, shaved<br />
1 t. EVOO<br />
1 t. seasoned rice vinegar (if you are worried about 100% raw, sub raw apple cider vinegar)<br />
a few drops raw honey, to taste<br />
1/2 t. sea salt<br />
1/4 pepper<br />
<br />
<b>Sushi Ingredients:</b><br />
4 large nori sheets<br />
1 avocado, sliced<br />
1/2 mango, sliced<br />
1/3 english cucumber, sliced<br />
4 oz. raw sushi grade salmon, cut in long thin slices (optional)<br />
1/2 lemon, half sliced thinly<br />
2 scallions, finely diced<br />
sesame seeds, for garnish<br />
coconut amino (or nama shoyu) for dipping<br />
<br />
<b>Directions:</b><br />
In the bowl, combine all ingredients for the Veggie-Rice and stir until well-combined.<br />
<br />
To assemble sushi, lay 1 sheet of nori on a bamboo mat covered with a square of plastic wrap (or you can just use plastic wrap), making sure the nori is laying the long way from right to left.. Cover the nori with a thin layer of the veggie-rice mixture but leave a 1" border on just one side of the nori. Then, lengthwise on top of the veggie-rice lay the avocado, mango, cucumber, and salmon in a line down the middle. If using salmon, take a small wedge of lemon and squeeze it over the ingredients before rolling. <br />
<br />
Carefully pick up the opposite end to the 1" border free veggie-rice and begin to roll over the ingredients, tugging tightly as you roll to keep the roll free of gaps in the middle. Continue to roll until hitting the border free of the veggie-rice mixture and squeeze the roll gently all along the length of it, shaping it round as best as possible.<br />
<br />
Carefully remove the bamboo mat and plastic wrap and allow the roll to sit for a minute or two to let the nori bind to itself. Then, with a very sharp knife, carefully cut the roll in half. Then cut each half in half again, and once more cut the four pieces in half, resulting in 8 individual pieces. Arrange the pieces on a plate and garnish with lemon slices, scallions, and sesame seeds, as desired. Serve with coconut aminos.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12560788959386802279noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032292172645365358.post-20185754049285883412014-06-13T15:37:00.001-07:002014-06-13T15:38:20.934-07:00Greek Pizza - Outer Aisle StyleThe recipe of the week is..... <b>Greek Pizza - Outer Aisle Style</b> <br />

</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2 packs of Outer Aisle cauliflower rice steamed (see below) </div>
<div>
1 chicken breast</div>
<div>
2 TB olive oil </div>
<div>
1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds </div>
<div>
1/4-1/2 onion, minced (I also do this in that handy-dandy veggie chopper)</div>
<div>
1/2 red pepper, diced</div>
<div>
14 oz. can artichoke hearts, drained, rough chop </div>
<div>
1 teaspoon salt (optional: handful of sliced almonds, toasted or not)</div>
<div>
1/2 cup healthy mayo </div>
<div>
1/2 cup Greek yogurt </div>
<div>
1 TB curry powder </div>
<div>
1 teaspoon stevia </div>
<div>
1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Directions:</b></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Put all that “rice” in a glass bowl and without adding water put it in the microwave for 7-8 minutes. There is enough liquid in the cauliflower to steam it up quite nicely. You can also steam it on the stovetop. </li>
<li>While rice is steaming start your meat on the George Foreman and chop up your onion, garlic, and red pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet on high heat, add cumin seeds and stir until fragrant (1-2 minutes), add onion and stir until soft & translucent. Add red pepper and cauli-rice and cook off as much liquid as you can, you want a mealy texture. (I stirred it around on high for about 5-6 minutes). Add artichoke hearts and cooked meat, remove from heat.</li>
<li>Stir together the mayo, yogurt, curry, stevia and cayenne. Fold into rice mixture until coated. Eat warm or cold, but probably warm because you’ll want to eat this immediately.</li>
<li>This made enough for dinner for 2, but would be super easy to double for a larger meal or for more leftovers. (I totally wish I had more leftovers.)</li>

<br />
<b>Ingredients for the roasted mushrooms: </b><br />
8 ounces Porcini mushrooms, sliced<br />
salt and pepper<br />
olive or coconut oil cooking spray<br />
<br />
<b>Ingredients for the risotto: </b><br />
3 packs of OAG veggie-rice<br />
1 medium yellow onion, thinly diced<br />
2 teaspoons minced garlic<br />
2 cups low sodium vegetable broth<br />
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar<br />
salt and pepper, to taste<br />
<br />
I<b>nstructions for the roasted mushrooms: </b><br />
<ol>
<li>Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease or line a baking sheet with foil and set aside.</li>
<li>Spread the sliced mushrooms on the baking sheet and spray with the cooking spray. </li>
<li>Sprinkle with salt and toss until evenly distributed. </li>
<li>Bake in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden and slightly crispy. </li>
<li>Set aside until ready to use</li>
</ol>
<b>Instructions for the risotto: </b><br />
<ol>
<li>Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly diced onion to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add in minced garlic and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden.</li>
<li>Add the veggie-rice to the skillet and stir, cooking for about a minute or so, until combined.</li>
<li>Heat the vegetable broth to a gentle simmer, preferably over the stovetop, but the microwave is (per usual) a viable option. </li>
<li>Add in ¼ cup of the simmering broth to the veggie-rice mixture in the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until completely incorporated. </li>
<li>Repeat until only ½ cup of the broth remains. </li>
<li>Stir in the white wine vinegar, adding in more or less as you desire, and then stir in the rest of the broth. </li>
<li>Once all the broth has been incorporated, it is best to let the risotto sit on the stove over low heat, as it lets the flavors really mingle and caramelize. </li>
<li>Salt and pepper to taste, and top with roasted mushrooms. </li>
</ol>

<br />
"Outer Aisle Gourmet products have become the new staple items in my fridge. I use the bread at almost every meal - even toasting it with almond butter for breakfast! Not only do I love the taste and texture of the products, and how satiated I feel after eating it, but I love the whole paradigm behind the company: giving life to the body through nutrient- dense, whole foods based carbs! What a gift to have something nourishing and delicious replacing the processed foods that used to be on my shelves!!"<br />

Thank you so much Alexis! It's great to hear that you have substituted OAG products for high carb foods, and still can enjoy your meals! Cheers to your health!<br />

Such inflammation can lead to heart disease, stroke, diabetes and obesity.<br />
<br />
"Jeanne, it was so nice to meet you and talk with you about a topic I am passionate about: the importance of the food we eat and the effects of inflammation. My husband and I tried your bread for lunch today and had BBQ chicken pizza on the OAG crust tonight with a salad. We both thought the products were GREAT! I love the fact that I could prepare a fast healthy meal by using OAG products and will look forward to purchasing more in the future. Thanks Again."<br />

<br />
"Outer Aisle Gourmet is such a great tool for me as a busy mom of three little ones. The products allow me to make my children's favorite foods gluten free and packed with veggies. Our favorite is the veggie bread because it's so versatile and we have fun coming up with new things to make<br />
with it. Our favorite at the moment is the breakfast sandwich with scrambled eggs, cheese, avocado, and tomato on toasted veggie bread. It feels great to send them off to school knowing I've already gotten some vegetables in them first thing in the morning." <br />

This cause is dear to my heart, and I am hopeful that OAG can help bring people in Africa the clean water that they desperately need. It takes just $50.00 to provide clean water for one person.<br />

This week I would like to share a product testimonial from someone that has achieved weight loss results by substituting OAG products for their traditional counterparts.<br />
<br />
"I started using Outer Aisle Gourmet cauliflower rice, zucchini pasta, bread and pizza crust instead of conventional rice, pasta, bread, and pizza crust. I made the substitutions several times a week, but not for every meal. I also tried to make an effort to eat healthy meals, even when not using Outer Aisle. So, over a period of three weeks I lost about 5 lbs., which may not sound like much, but I have been unable to lose any weight in the last 10 years. This has been a real breakthrough for me. I still indulge and eat things I shouldn't, I still do not exercise like I should. But, I found in making the decision to eat something that's good for your body, like Outer Aisle Gourmet, I have started to make better choices more often like choosing to take the stairs and forgo dessert. This has been a good step for me in the right direction. I'm grateful to Jeanne David for making it so easy for me to make quick easy low carb meals in minutes. Truly Grateful."<br />

<br />
"I love healthy foods that taste good and make life easy! Outer Aisle’s products are the answer for me! The veggie pasta and rice cook up in minutes. I use them exactly as I would the grain choices and my family and I feel great afterwards. No bloating or sluggishness that comes from eating heavy pasta and rice. The veggie bread and pizza crust are also delicious and make eating sandwiches and pizza guilt free. And since I’m an outer aisle shopper, I love the name!"<br />

Thank you so much Brenda! It's great to hear that customers like you are substituting grain products with ours and finding their OAG dishes just as satisfying and delicious without the loaded carbs! <br />
