Serve each piece with a dab of whipped cream, a mint sprig or some raspberries or strawberries. Note: We cut our pie into 8 pieces. You can use up to 3 scoops of Protein Powder, but it makes a very dense pie.

Soy Pastry Crust (submitted by Chef Jeannette Pothier) This makes a 9-inch crust using olive oil. Say goodbye to butter and hello to pies again. This crust may be made and immediately baked blind*. It does shrink like a butter crust sometimes does. This crust tastes nutty and that’s a great taste! *Baking blind means to bake a crust with pie weights in it, before you use the crust for a pie. ¾ cup flour, unbleached white, organic, or oat flour ¼ cup ground Texturized soy protein, or soy flour, use Shaklee’s Instant Protein Soy Powder ¼ cup canola oil, plus 2 to 3 tablespoons of warm water Pinch of salt With a mixer, combine the flour and protein powder together. Mix together the oil, water and salt, and add it slowly to the flour mixture, while beating. Beat for 2-3 minutes or until it is wet enough that the dough will hold together. Roll the dough between two sheets of plastic wrap. Uncover the top side and place the crust into a 9 inch pie plate. Peel off the second sheet of plastic wrap and adjust the crust to just come to the top of the plate. You could make this in a square pan and serve it by cutting it into squares. I use this crust to make what I call my Zone Pumpkin Pie.

Yogurt Cooler (submitted by Charlene Day) Add a Tablespoon of Shaklee protein powder to your favourite flavour yogurt! It is tasty, cooling and packed with protein...kids love it!

Zone Pumpkin Pie (submitted by Chef Jeannette Pothier)

29 For the holidays, you may want to enjoy an old family favorite, especially New England Pumpkin Pie. You can have pie and enjoy it – if you add favorable products that do not change the taste of the pie. This is light, delicious and healthier for you. Makes 8 pieces. 1 can (15-ounce) Pumpkin for pies 1 tablespoon cornstarch ½ teaspoon cinnamon ½ teaspoon ginger ½ teaspoon ground cloves 2 scoops Shaklee’s Instant Protein Soy Mix 1 tablespoon honey (cont’d) 1 tablespoon butter, unsalted and melted 1 cup plain Soy Milk 1/2 cup sugar 3 egg whites, well beaten 3/4 cup walnut halves Preheat the oven to 400oF. Method: Sift sugar, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and soy protein together. Mix this with one can of pumpkin, honey and butter. Stir in the milk. Beat the egg whites until very light. Stir in ¼ of the egg whites into the pumpkin mixture, and gently fold the whites into the base. Pour into an unbaked pie crust, preferably a soy crust and decorate the edge with walnut halves. Baking: Bake the pie at 400oF on the bottom shelf for the first 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to 325oF and bake for another 35 minutes, or until the center is not liquid. You may bake the pie in a pie plate or square pan without the crust. But, once you have had this pie with the Soy crust, you will not want to make it without that crust!

30 Other Shakle e Soy 31 Recipe s

Chia/Hemp Heart Pudding/Porridge In a one pint (2 cup) jar with a lid, add the following: o 4 tablespoons hemp hearts o 2 tablespoons chia seeds o 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon cinnamon o handful of raisins o ¼ cup coconut o 2 level tablespoons of Shaklee Soy Protein (vanilla) Add 1 cup of water. Put lid on and shake well and put in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning … breakfast (or lunch) is ready. Eat cold. 32 Cheese Strata (submitted by Chef Jeannette Pothier) This recipe is a great dish for a crowd. You make it entirely the night before and bake it off in the morning, or just before serving. You can bake it ahead and re-heat it if you are taking it to a friend’s house or serving it on a buffet table for a catering job. It is healthy and it tastes great! Cuts into 6 large pieces, approximately 5 inches square or into 8 smaller pieces. 4 whole organic eggs plus 4 egg whites (or use 6 whole eggs) 2-1/2 cups 2% milk or regular soy milk, mixed with 3 scoops of Soy Protein Salt, pepper 8 oz., (2 cups) shredded light cheddar cheese 4 oz. (1 cup) light Swiss cheese 4 1/4 inch small slices of French bread 1 TB finely chopped parsley Organic basil pesto Method: Mix the whole eggs and egg whites together and add the milk/protein powder mixture but reserve a half cup, salt and pepper and parsley. Butter a large baking pan. Arrange half of the cheese and bread slices in the pan and pour the egg-milk mixture on top. To the half cup reserved milk mixture, add about 3 tablespoons freshly made pesto and pour on top. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and cover. You may save the remaining cheese to sprinkle on just before baking. Refrigerate overnight and bake the next day. Bake in a glass 13 x 9 inch pan, at 325 degrees in a water bath for 45 to 55 minutes depending on doneness. Test to see if the center is cooked. May be reheated. Note: You may add a pre-cooked sausage meat or ham. Cook the ham slice also and cut into cubes. I use soy milk but it tastes great with regular milk too. If using whole eggs, use 6 to 8 as it depends on how solid you want this. You may cut down on the cheese.

33 Connie’s French Toast (submitted by Chef Jeannette Pothier) This recipe was written by my friend Anne Rislove for the book we were writing together on healthy eating. 4 Slices of Whole Wheat bread 1 large egg 3 egg whites 2 Tablespoons Shaklee’s Instant Protein Soy Powder 1 TB unsalted butter, melted Your choice of Maple Syrup or honey Separate the three eggs and use only the whites.

Dip the bread slices in the egg mixture and cook until the pierces are slightly brown, and turn it over to cook the other side. Serve with a small amount of maple syrup, Canadian bacon rounds, fresh fruit, and tea, coffee and don’t forget the water!

Corn Muffins (submitted by Chef Jeannette Pithier) These muffins come from a 6-muffin mix.

Butter 6 medium muffin tins well. You can use paper liners sprayed with Canola oil. Mix the protein powder with the muffin mix. In a separate bowl, beat the egg with the milk and oil, and gently stir it into the muffin mixture. Scoop out the mixture with an ice cream scoop. Bake for 15 to 16 minutes or until just lightly brown. When the top springs back, the muffins are done. Remove to a dish and serve slightly warm with honey. Note: You may make any muffins like this, and Blueberry muffins are especially good made this way.

Home-Made Pizza (Healthy) (submitted by Esao, Cheryl and Brian Tada) Nothing beats the aroma of fresh baked pizza made from scratch! The following recipe has been a Tada family favorite for many years, using healthy ingredients such as whole wheat flour, and Shaklee soy protein

35 powder as a meat substitute. This delicious pizza recipe is well worth the effort to make, and it is in three parts:

A.) CRUST (Yield: One 10-inch crust) 1/4 teaspoon sea salt 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 4 to 6 tablespoons purified (filtered) water (great use for Shaklee BestWater!) Nut butter (peanut butter; or use almond / pecan nut butter* as healthier alternative) *Please see nut butter recipe towards end of recipes, below Mix salt and flour. Rub the olive oil into the flour by hand until thoroughly distributed. Add some water. Knead until dough is "ear lobe" consistency. Roll out on floured board, then transfer onto floured, ungreased cookie sheet (sprinkling coarse corn meal on the roll-out surface may be used as the "anti-stick" agent instead of flour). The NUT BUTTER may be spread thinly onto the crust PRIOR to adding sauce -- unbelievable, but tastes great!

B.) TOMATO SAUCE (Yield: 3 cups) 1 large white onion, chopped 2 or 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped (or put through garlic press) 1 six-ounce can tomato paste (the kind without added sugar) 1 teaspoon sea salt 1 tablespoon Shaklee Instant Protein SOY MIX powder (or Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein powder, Vanilla flavor) 1/2 cup chopped mushrooms (cont’d) 1 tablespoon oregano (or Italian seasoning herbs) Heat a large, heavy skillet on medium heat. Add oil, onions, and garlic and saute until soft. Add tomato paste and all other ingredients. Simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. (If sauce becomes too thick, add a touch of BestWater to dilute.) Just before removing from heat, add

36 SHAKLEE SOY PROTEIN powder. Pour sauce over crust and spread evenly.

C.) TOPPINGS - 1 to 2 cups mozzarella cheese, grated (other cheeses, including cheddar, jack and/or swiss may be used, but mozzarella is best for consistency when baked). - Vegetables (Chopped mushrooms, bell peppers, green and/or white onions, broccoli, zucchini, eggplant, asparagus, grated carrots, pre-cooked kidney beans or soybeans, etc. This is a great way to use up those leftover "gotta-go" veggies!) - OPTIONAL: Lean, pre-cooked meats may be added for variety. Spread the mozzarella evenly on top of the tomato sauce layer. Sprinkle toppings, one by one, evenly over the pizza, then add more grated cheese. Bake about 15 minutes at 450 degrees. Serve immediately with a tossed vegetable salad and fresh fruit salad on the side for a really healthy, nutritious meal.

TIME-SAVING TIP: If you're in a hurry, use whole-wheat toast slices (or other whole-grain toast slices) instead of the dough. This gives each person their very own individual pizza. In this case, bake for only 5 to 10 minutes at 450 degrees.

Minestrone Delight (Hearty Vegetable Soup) (submitted by Esao, Cheryl and Brian Tada) INGREDIENTS: 1-1/3 cups potatoes, peeled and diced (leave peel on if organic) 1/3 cup onion, diced 1/3 cup leeks, sliced 2/3 cup celery, sliced 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour 1-1/3 qts. water (Shaklee Get Clean Water)

(cont’d) 38 Simmer for 10 minutes or until soft. Add whole-wheat flour; stir until smooth. Slowly add water. Add seasonings, vegetables and macaroni. Simmer on medium heat for 20-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add potatoes from smaller pot and the tomato sauce. Add brown rice. Stir and continue to simmer. Just prior to serving, either stir in the Shaklee soy powder into the main soup pot, or sprinkle over individual servings and stir. Serve soup with whole-wheat bread, almond/pecan nut butter* (see recipe below) and a green salad. Serves six people, approximately 160 calories per serving. The soy protein adds beneficial soy isoflavones for many health benefits, and provides a healthy alternative to meat. For variety, other vegetables may be substituted or added: mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, parsley, etc. Also, it's a creative and delicious way to use up those "gotta go" leftover vegetables!

Our Pancakes (submitted by Chef Jeannette Pothier) The recipe without the soy protein is from my Mother, Alma, in Nova Scotia, who made these and cooked them in a skillet over a wood burning stove. Makes 8 pancakes, for 4 people 1 cup flour 1 tablespoons sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 tablesoons of egg whites (dried) 1 or 2 Scoops of Shaklee’s Instant Protein Soy Mix ¾ cup milk, plus 2 to 4 tablespoons of milk* *Hint: You need to add more milk because of the soy. 1 egg, lightly beaten 39 1 tablespoon Canola oil (or melted unsalted butter) 2/3 cup fresh blueberries Mix the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients separately. Pour the wet into the dry ingredients. Do not stir too much. A few lumps are fine. You will need a bit more milk, depending on how much protein you use. I use a lot of Shaklee Protein for baking, as it is protein, and very little carbohydrates. Add blueberries. Cook at 350o in a square electric skillet and turn over when bubbles appear. You may use a bit more oil to give the crunch to the pancakes and to get a bit more browning.

These are thick, light and delicious healthy for you and your family, and good anytime of day. Complete meal in itself, or with soy sausages or crisp bacon and fruit.

Truffles (Apricot Coconut) (submitted by Lynda McGarr) 6 pitted dates AND 6 dried apricots ½ cup cocoa powder ½ cup unsweetened coconut

40 ½ cup Shaklee Soy Protein 4 tablespoons vanilla yogurt 6 tablespoons pure maple syrup 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (cont’d) In food processor, blend dates and apricots, and place in bowl. Mix in all other ingredients. Form into balls, and roll in cocoa or coconut. Store in fridge

Sugarless Candy (submitted by Linda Oldfield) 1 cup coconut 1 cup Shaklee Soy Protein 1/2 cup carob or cocoa powder 1/2 cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, cashews) 1/2 cup dry toasted sesame seeds or sunflowers 3/4 cup honey Mix thoroughly and make into rolls, refrigerate and slice.

Waffle recipe (submitted by Margaret Foulston) 2 c. whole wheat flour 1 c. oatmeal (or 1/2 cup oatmeal and 1/2 cup oat bran) 1/2 to 1 c flaxmeal 1 block soft tofu (optional) 1 egg (optional) 2 tbsp brown sugar 1 tsp salt 1 tsp soda 4 to 6 scoops (Tbsp) Shaklee soy mix 5 to 6 cups water (or milk) -add water to make a thin batter

Mix thoroughly with electric mixer before cooking in a waffle pan. This mixture thickens quickly because of the oatmeal and flaxmeal but works OK if made into waffles-- more water can be added as needed. The mixture would 41 not work as well for pancakes. These hearty waffles will keep you feeling "full" for hours.

NOTE: Healthy ALMOND / PECAN BUTTER (submitted by Cheryl Tada - Mentioned in recipes above) This wonderful "butter" can be used in practically any recipe calling for peanut butter; use also as a "bread spread" in place of peanut butter or dairy butter, along with Brown Rice Syrup for sweetener. Blend together in food processor: 1 cup almonds 1 ¼ cup pecans Add some walnuts if desired Make into a thick paste.
