Eating healthily has become quite important for all of us. Enjoying a healthy vegetarian or vegan meal at least once a week is a great way to make this practical. And when you think of vegetarian cooking don’t think it’s tasteless and boring. Good choices are all about eating a variety of natural, seasonal and fresh ingredients. Add even more flavour and avocado goodness to these with Westfalia Fruit, the #AVOEXPERTS.
Make your own
Tahini is a delicious and versatile condiment, well-known for its great taste and health properties. You may have seen or heard of tahini, but did you know you can easily make it yourself? The best part is that you only need two ingredients, Westfalia Avocado Oil and sesame seeds. Prepare this thick, nutty paste and use it to add yumminess and extra nutrients to your meals. Tahini is probably best known as one of the main ingredients in hummus and other Mediterranean dishes, but it is so much more. To turn tahini into a quick herby sauce, click here. Enjoy with your summer al fresco meals, veggie platters, as a dipping sauce or salad dressing, on a burger, drizzled over roasted veggies, legumes or anywhere you would use a sauce. It is sure to transform any simple ingredient into something special.
Add a splash of avocado oil
You can’t make tahini without a good quality oil. Westfalia Fruit’s Avocado Oil is perfect as it adds extra health benefits and is suitable for both vegans and vegetarians. This oil is 100 % pure and thanks to its naturally high smoke point it’s ideal for every cooking method. The Westfalia range of avocado oils are locally produced and available in four flavours: Plain, Lemon, Garlic and Butter.
More avo goodness
Westfalia Fruit also has a range of delicious guacamoles packed with healthy fats. Each tub is made from about two ripe hand-scooped Hass avocados. This range is vegan-friendly too and comes in three flavours: Plain, Spicy or Sweet Chilli Salsa. Guacamole is not just for Mexican food, you can dip, dunk or spread it on just about anything.
