Cook for Good Recipes

Enjoy these scrumptious, free recipes. All Cook for Good recipes are thrifty, healthy, and vegetarian. Most are vegan or have vegan options (make that all starting December 2011), but you know how to add dairy or meat if you want to. Use the search feature to find recipes that are vegan, gluten free, quick (20 minutes or less of active time), or seasonal.

For many more recipes, check out my book: Wildly Affordable Organic or become a supporting member of the Cook for Good project. Supporting members get ongoing recipe modifications on the Wildly Affordable Vegan page, ebooks, videos, and more.

Apple-Raisin Pockets

Looking for a baked fruit dessert without butter, lots of sugar, or artificial ingredients? Try this recipe for Apple-Raisin Pockets. Just wrap the appealing, apple-pie-like filling with a low-fat dough.

Use the dairy-free, slightly sweet dough below. For a more sophisticated flavor combination that is also vegan, use the Whisk Pizza Dough or Speedy Grilled Pizza Dough from Wildly Affordable Organic. Whisk Pizza Dough does not require a bread machine or kneading, but does rest at least one night in the refrigerator.

Make-ahead or small-family tip: I like to make all the dough at once, then roll out and bake three batches of Apple-Raisin Pockets over a two-week period, using fresh apples each time. This makes the active time of the first batch only 40 minutes and the active time for the other two batches about 30 minutes each.

Heat-Wave Gazpacho

When the sun pounds down on your roof and just walking outside makes you dizzy with heat, whirl up a batch of Heat-Wave Gazpacho. This cold soup is a meal in a bowl, with a refreshing vinegar zing. Serve it as a first course for dinner, pack it in a thermos for lunch, dip into it as an afternoon snack—even have it for breakfast!
