  5. Optional: garnish with additional chickpeas, a drizzle of olive oil and sprinkle of black pepper

Recipe CLASS 3: Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oats
Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk 
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 2 Tbsp pumpkin puree
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions: Stir together all ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add to a mason jar with a fitted lid. Refrigerate and store overnight.

Recipe CLASS 4: Banana Nice Cream!
Ingredients:

  • 4 frozen ripe bananas
  • 2 tbs peanut butter
  • 2 tbs milk (if needed)

Instructions:

Place the frozen banana in chunks in a food processor or powerful blender. Puree banana, scraping down the bowl as needed. Puree until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Add the peanut butter and puree to combine. Serve immediately for soft-serve ice cream consistency. If you prefer harder ice cream, place in the freezer for a few hours and then serve.

*Note-if you have a hard time creating a creamy consistency, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of milk to help puree the banana slices. Make sure you use a powerful food processor or blender!
