Cook the dried beans. Drain the beans, discard the liquid and return the beans to the pan.
Make the pesto: Combine the basil, lemon juice, 1 whole garlic clove, parmesan, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor and puree. Add 1/2 cup olive oil in a slow, steady stream and continue to process for 1 more minute until well pureed. Set aside.

Place 3/4 pound of the strozzapreti or penne pasta in the water and cook (maintaining a medium boil) until just al dente -- about 9 minutes. Drain the pasta immediately (do not rinse). Set aside.
Cook the vegetables: Finely chop the remaining garlic clove. Heat remaining olive oil in 11 inch skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are deep golden brown -- 5 to 7 minutes. Add the green beans and remaining salt and pepper and cook for 1 minute more. Add the wine, borlotti beans, and 1/2 cup of the reserved bean cooking liquid or broth. Cover and cook until beans are warmed and green beans are tender -- 2 to 3 more minutes.

If you use packaged polenta, slice it into 18 thin slices. If you make your own polenta, spread the cooked polenta out on a baking sheet and use a spoon or your moistened hands to spread it no thicker than 1/4 inch. When it has solidified, either cut it in half and use each half as one layer or cut it into an even number of pieces that you can fit into your electric oil core skillet
Ingredients:
1 18-ounce package prepared polenta 
1/2 large onion, chopped
1 large portabella mushroom, cut into thin slices (about 2 cups, sliced)
4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
1/2 bunch kale (about 8 ounces after trimming), center rib removed and chopped into bite-sized pieces (may substitute spinach or other greens)
1 teaspoon dried basil
salt and pepper to taste
Cheese sauce (below)
1 1/4 cups marinara sauce (homemade or in a jar)
1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives, chopped
vegan soy parmesan or parmesan cheese
________________________________________
“Cheese” sauce:
1/2 cup extra-firm silken tofu
1/2 cup unsweetened soy milk or almond
1/2 cup vegetable broth
2 tbsp. cashew butter or tahini
1 tsp. onion powder
1 1/2 tbsp. nutritional yeast
1/2 tsp. salt (optional)
1/8 tsp. white pepper
2 tsp. corn starch
________________________________________
Place the cheese sauce ingredients into a blender or food processor and puree until completely smooth. Set aside.
________________________________________
Sauté the onions and portabellas in 11 inch or 12 inch gourmet skillet until the mushrooms begin to exude their juices. Add the garlic and sauté for one more minute.
Add the kale, basil, and 1/4 cup water. Sauté until the kale is wilted and tender and the water has evaporated. Add the cheese sauce and cook, stirring, until thickened. Check seasoning and add salt and pepper if needed. Remove from the heat.
Cut the polenta into 1/4-inch thick slices. Line the bottom of the electric oil core skillet with half of the slices, overlapping slightly if possible. Spread 1/2 cup of the marinara sauce over the polenta, and then spread the kale mixture over the sauce. Sprinkle the chopped olives over the kale and top with the remaining polenta. Spread the remaining marinara sauce over the top and sprinkle with soy parmesan.

¼ cup hijiki seaweed (I have found it at wholefoods)
4 tablespoons sesame seeds ( black or white)
3 tablespoons peanut oil
3 cups shitake mushrooms, sliced
1 red bell pepper
1 jalapeno, seeded (optional)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small yellow onion
2 carrots, sliced
2 cups edamame soybeans, cooked
2 cups green cabbage, sliced cone #4
2 cups red cabbage, sliced cone #4
3 tablespoons (plus more as needed) soy sauce or tamari
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil

Cover the hijiki with water and let soak for 30 minutes. Drain, then place in a saucepan with 2 tablespoons soy sauce and enough water to cover it. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain, reserving the liquid, and set both aside.

Meanwhile, cook the soba noodles in boiling water until they are al dente, about 6 minutes. Drain, rinse well with cold water, and set aside.

For this part you’ll need a 5 qt wok or a large 11 inch skillet.

Place sesame seeds in heated wok/skillet and cook until they are toasted and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. You’ll need to shake them now and then so they don’t burn. Remove when toasted and set aside.
Heat the peanut oil until medium hot, and then add garlic and onion. Stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add the carrots, shitakes, jalapeno and bell peppe, place lid on and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add soybeans and both types of cabbage and cook for 2 minutes more, adding a small amount of oil or water if necessary. Ingredients should be lightly coated with sesame oil. Add the remaining soy sauce and the rice wine vinegar and cook for 2 minutes. Add the hijiki, saving enough for garnish, the reserved hijiki cooking liquid, and the soba noodles and mix well with the vegetables.
Cook 1 or 2 minutes more, until heated through.

Pre-heat skillet on medium.  Spray pan with cooking spray (optional) cooking spray makes clean up easier but is not necessary.(Or you can use oil or butter) Do not cover pan completely while cooking.  You can use a lid but make sure to leave it open a little to allow steam to escape, or you will bake your potatoes.
Allow potatoes to fry on one side about 5 min. and flip.  Use a thin metal spatula just like on the pancakes.

Edamame Hummus

1/2 pound frozen shelled edamame (green soy beans), about 1 1/2 cups 
1/4 cup tahini (seasame seed paste)
1/4 cup water 
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest 
3 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 clove garlic, smashed 
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander 
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 

Stuffed tomatoes

1 pint perfectly ripe cherry tomatoes
1/3 cup sunflower seeds, soaked for at least 3 hours
3/4 cup walnuts, soaked for at least 3 hours
1 tbs minced shallot
1 fat garlic clove
1 1/2 tsp dried tarragon
2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp sea salt
pinch of ground nutmeg
pinch of cayenne pepper
a few turns freshly ground white pepper
2 tbs flax seed oil
1/8 cup cold water
Optional garnishes: Curly leaf lettuce, extra curry powder, chopped fresh tarragon leaves or thyme leaves, black lava sea salt.
Slice off the tops of the cherry tomatoes.  With a melon baller, carefully scoop out the seeds and inner membrane.  Slice a thin sliver off the bottoms so that they will become stable and not roll around.  Be careful not to cut off too much or you’ll have a hollow tomato.  Set them aside while preparing the pâte.
Add all other ingredients, except for the water, to a food processor and blitz until you get a hummus-like texture and not too smooth.  Taste to adjust seasonings if necessary.  Blitz again while drizzling in only enough cold water to smooth out the mixture until creamy.
When you stuff the tomatoes, it’s best to use a rounded 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon, or a melon baller, along with something to help scrape it off.  If you’re using the lettuce garnish, line the inside of each tomato with a small piece of lettuce leaf.  Scoop in 1 to 2 rounded teaspoons of pâte depending on the size of the tomato.
Arrange on a serving platter and finish with an additional sprinkling of curry powder, some chopped fresh tarragon or thyme, and/or a sprinkling of black lava sea salt.

Frittata

What is the difference between an omelet and a frittata? In the strictest sense, the difference boils down to a matter of folding in a filling rather than mixing it in. Omelets traditionally have the egg mixture cooked and folded around a filling, while a frittata just mixes it all up, cooked in a mishmash combination all at once. Frittatas are often served at room temperature, making them perfect for brunches or larger groups. 

Ingredients:  
1 garlic clove, halved 
1 1/2 tablespoons oil 
1 finely grated carrot
1 package baby arugula  
6 large eggs 
1 zucchini thin sliced with cone #4

Mimi’s Scalloped Potato Veggie Bake

This makes one Saladmaster Electric Oil Skillet full. Use the Saladmaster machine, for most of the chopping. I place the electric skillet right under the Saladmaster machine, and layer the dish.
ORGANIC INGREDIENTS:
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 large leek
5 medium carrots, unpeeled, base cut off
2 tablespoons rosemary (dried or fresh)
1 cup crumbled wakame seaweed. I tear the dry seaweed apart with my hands
5 large garlic cloves. Chop and let sit 10 minutes, to release antioxidants
5 medium to large red potatoes, unpeeled
2 large zucchini
1 cup hot water with 2 ½ tablespoons miso stirred into it, to make a broth
4 coarsely chopped Roma tomatoes
½ bunch chopped scallion
Note: This is the vegan version. Non vegan which is very good also is to use unsalted butter in place of coconut oil, and sprinkle 1 cup of grated cheddar over the carrots and 1 cup before the topping of chopped tomato and scallion. 2 cups total. Instead of the miso broth, use 1 cup of half & half cream!
PERPARATION:
Spread 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil on the bottom of the electric skillet.
Trim older leaves off  the leek. You can use all the green leaves also.
Slice the leek down the middle, with the base intact, and run under cool water, pulling back the leaves to clean the dirt which collects where the leaves join. Cut off root base. Run the leek thru the Saladmaster machine, using the slicer. There will be some large strips, but they will cook and soften nicely. Layer the leek on the bottom of skillet. With the large grater attachment, feed the carrots through Saladmaster, spreading them out. Sprinkle on 1 tablespoon of the chopped rosemary, half of the chopped garlic, and the torn up seaweed. Using crinkle cut attachment, feed 3 potatoes through, spreading them out. Dot with the other tablespoon of coconut oil. Using the slicer attachment, slice the zucchini, and spread them out. Sprinkle on the rest of the rosemary and garlic. Pour over the miso broth, and top with the chopped tomato and scallion.
Set skillet on 350, and when it clicks, turn to 210 for approximately a 1/2 hour. Serves 10-12.
Enjoy!
