continuing.)

ROASTED ACORN SQUASH
WITH WILD RICE STUFFING
PHASE 3 | SERVES: 8 | PREP TIME: 50 MIN | TOTAL TIME: 1 HR 20 MIN

3 cups low-sodium chicken broth 3 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves


1 1/3 cups wild rice 3 teaspoons fresh sage, chopped
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt, divided 2 cups pecans, chopped
4 acorn squash 1 cup fresh Italian parsley, chopped
2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced
20 ounces wild mushrooms (such as crimini and
shiitake caps), sliced

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the broth in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Place the
wild rice in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of
the salt. When the broth boils, pour it into the baking dish. Cover tightly with foil, and bake 1
hour or until tender.
2. Now, cut the squash in half crosswise, and scoop out the seeds. If the squash halves won’t
stand face-up on their own, cut a thin slice off the bottom. Place the squash halves face-down
in a large baking dish (use two baking dishes, if necessary).
3. Add 1/4 inch of water, cover tightly with foil, and slide into the oven with the rice (you can put
the squash on a lower rack, if necessary). Bake 45 minutes, or until the squash is very tender.
4. While the rice and squash bake, sauté the veggies. Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-
low heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the onions. Cook, stirring often, until the onions
are soft and caramelized, about 20 minutes. Scrape the contents of the skillet into a bowl.
5. Return the skillet to the heat, and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, mushrooms,
thyme, sage, black pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the
mushrooms are deep brown, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat, stir in the pecans and
parsley, and scrape this mixture into the bowl with the onions.
6. When the squash and rice are done, remove them from the oven, and raise the oven
temperature to 450 degrees. Stir the rice into the filling mixture, and taste for salt and pepper.
Place the squash halves face-up in a baking dish, and season them with salt and pepper.
Divide the filling among them, packing it in and mounding it up.
7. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, or until the edges of the squash just begin to brown (be careful not to
let the pecans get too brown), and serve. 14

minutes. Add 1/2 cup of the chicken broth and stir for 1 minute, scraping up all of the browned
bits from the bottom of the skillet. Scrape this mixture into the mixing bowl.

1/2 teaspoon almond extract 1 teaspoon lemon juice
15 drops liquid stevia 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
6 slices sprouted grain bread, cubed 2 cups water
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries 20 drops liquid stevia, or to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. For the Apple Compote: Combine the first five ingredients (apples through salt) in a large
saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the water and cook, stirring often, until the mixture
becomes thick and the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Let the compote cool a bit (it will
thicken more as it cools), stir in the stevia, and serve.
2. For the Casserole: In a large mixing bowl, combine the first six ingredients (egg whites
through stevia). Whisk well.
3. Line a medium baking dish (about 8 by 11 inches) with parchment and fill it with the bread.
Pour the liquid mixture over the bread, make sure all parts of the bread are moistened, and
allow it to sit for at least 30 minutes. (Note: You can make the casserole ahead to this point,
cover, and refrigerate.) Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
4. Mix the blueberries into the bread mixture.
5. Bake the casserole for about 30 minutes or until there is no longer any liquid between the
bread. Allow the casserole to cool a bit, and serve with the Apple Compote.

“SUGAR” COOKIES WITH RASPBERRY
COCONUT CREME ICING
PHASE 3 | MAKES: 16 COOKIES | PREP TIME: 25 MIN | TOTAL TIME: 55 MIN

“Sugar” Cookies: Raspberry Coconut Creme Icing


1 1/2 tablespoons raw coconut oil, melted 1/4 cup coconut cream from a full-fat coconut milk
1 tablespoon almond milk can (refrigerate the can overnight to make the cream
15 drops liquid stevia, or to taste rise to the top)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1/4 cup defrosted frozen raspberries (with juices),
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional) pureed
1 cup almond flour 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon sea salt 15 drops liquid stevia, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon baking soda 7 to 8 tablespoons arrowroot

DIRECTIONS

1. Combine the coconut oil, almond milk, stevia, vanilla, and optional almond extract in a
medium mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, sea salt, and baking
soda. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry and keep stirring, breaking up clumps as you mix,
until you can form the dough into a ball with your hands. Flatten the dough ball into a disk,
wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
2. Place the chilled dough ball between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out 1/4-inch
thick. Cut shapes out of the dough with cookie cutters, transfer the shapes to a parchment-
lined cookie sheet, and freeze for 20 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes or until the edges are
barely golden. Remove the cookie sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet.
Cool the cookies completely before icing.
4. For the Icing: In a small bowl, whisk the coconut cream, pureed raspberries, vanilla, and
stevia. Add 1 tablespoon of the arrowroot at a time to thicken the icing to your liking, whisking
in each tablespoon until there are no clumps.
5. Transfer the icing to a ziplock bag or pastry bag with tip and refrigerate for 20 minutes before
using. (If you are using a ziplock bag, you can then cut off a tiny corner of the bag to squeeze
the icing out onto your cookies.) 2 cookies are a grain serving on Phase 3.
