    Such a great addition to any savory dish/casserole. Easy to make and really bumps up the flavor profile and satisfaction of a simple meal like pasta w/marinara, Mac & cheeze, baked potato w/cheeze sauce, etc.

    Used these with a modification – add 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds to the recipe. You could also add red pepper flakes – to give it more of a “sausagey” taste. Then see the creamy potato kale soup recipe for modifications to make a version of olive gardens “zuppa tuscano” soup.

    Can the baked off crumbles be frozen for future recipes?

      Yes, they may be slightly dry compared to fresh, but many people bake and freeze them.

    I love all of the “crumble” recipes! Oh so good. Packs the flavor punch. This is such a great topping on any dish – not just this one!

    Good idea for loaded nachos!

August, 2011 had me utter the word, “vegan” for the first time. After my yearly physical total cholesterol had climbed to 264 mg/dL and would continue to increase unless I took preventive measures. My family physician prescribed me a statin, which was told would help “control” my TC but not reverse the condition. Weeks later… Read more or comment “Stephen T”

I’ve been a member of PDL for over a year and I really enjoy reading your posts and the wonderful photos. I started eating a protective diet (straight from a standard american diet) on February 22, 2014 after my friend Karla Freeze told me about it. I’m happy and excited to share that I’ve totally… Read more or comment “Plant-Based Nutritional Intervention Results are typical on a Protective Diet CJ’s Testimonial”

A new twist!

Three months ago I added Day Fasting and Feasting to my 3 year PD practice. I was so intrigued when Julie started telling us about it and all the possible benefits it could bring.
I began with skipping breakfast ( so approximately 16 hours of fasting, then eating lunch and dinner). Before the first… Read more or comment “A new twist!”

Results are typical on a Protective Diet

After having 2 babies in 1 year, I was at my heaviest. I discovered when my daughter was 2 weeks old that I have chronic mononucleosis syndrome (chronic mono). By the time she was a year and a half, I had mono twice. It was incredibly difficult trying to take care of 2 little ones… Read more or comment “Results are typical on a Protective Diet”

Day 60! The picture on the left was taken as I began this journey, 2 months ago and the one on the right was taken this morning I’m down 14.5 lbs.

PD Works!

Well, you found your way to my testimony. Good for you. Here’s my true story:

I’ve been doing PD for two years now, and it has been working wonderfully for me ever since. It’s greatly reduced my Ulcerative Colitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis symptoms, I sleep better, my skin looks great, and I… Read more or comment “PD Works!”
