Chef Tal joined Oprah today talking about his Vegan Recipes using Gardein. A former steak lover himself‚ Chef Tal struggled for years on a vegan diet that left him hungry and filled with cravings for butter and meat.
Approimately ten years ago‚ he decided that the best way to satisfy his dietary wants and desires was to make food that was good enough for “foodies” and could gratify his cravings for rich flavor and fat. His solution was to create vegan meals with substantial proteins that could literally change the way people eat. He studied all aspects of non−meat proteins and today is widely regarded as the expert in the field‚ developing new concepts for meals and sauces and helping to improve textures for food companies such as Gardein (the provider of vegetable proteins used by Morningstar Farms‚ It′s All Good‚ Trader Joe′s brands‚ and the prepared food department of Whole Foods‚ just to name a few).
What Is Gardein
Gardein (combination of the words “garden” and “protein”), pronounced (gar-DEEN) is a line of plant-based foods with a meaty texture. It is made from a blend of soy, wheat and pea proteins, vegetables and ancient grains (quinoa, amaranth, millet, and kamut).
Gardein is free of cholesterol, trans fats and saturated fat; the majority of gardein foods are low fat, too. Gardein products are vegan-friendly.
Gardein is available in a variety of forms and flavors, both ‘fresh’ and ‘frozen’ styles. You can buy Gardein throughout the United States and Canada. It is found in a variety of supermarket and grocery store chains such as Whole Foods Market, Krogers, Publix, Ralph’s, and Safeway Inc.
Gardein is manufactured by Garden Protein International, a Vancouver Canada-based company that was founded in 2003.
THE CONSCIOUS COOK features a center−of−the−plate protein in all of its entrees−a first for vegan cookbooks. Seventy−five original recipes are organized by categories that include starters and small plates‚ soups and salads‚ entrees‚ and desserts. Each recipe is accompanied by full−color photographs.
