Steps:

• Put ice cubes into a glass (about the size of a regular drinking glass).
• Add all liquor and then top off with the mixer.
• The creams will (obviously) give you a much richer, creamier drink. DH uses almond milk because he is lactose intolerant, and the taste compliments the amaretto. It can be found in the dairy or baking section of most groceries. Milk is also okay, but it will taste thinner and weaker.
• Stir thoroughly to mix ingredients.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a medium sauce pan, bring broth to boil over medium-high heat. Add drained quinoa. Cover and reduce heat, simmering until most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 15 minutes (20 for millet). Remove from heat and let stand covered for 10 minutes (15 for millet). Fluff with fork and set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add shallots and cook just until tender, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, salt, and pepper and cook until fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute. Add carrots, beets, and green onions, tossing to coat and cook 2 minutes. Stir in almonds and quinoa and toss gently until well combined. Sprinkle with parsley and serve warm or at room temperature. (Crumbled blue cheese optional topping).

Steps:

• Using a shaker filled with ice, combine all ingredients. Shake well.
• Strain into a chilled old-fashioned glass.

Steps:

• Wrap tofu in doubled dish towel. Place on work surface. Weigh down with a board topped with food cans or weights for 1 hour. Squeeze towel-wrapped tofu to extract as much liquid as possible from tofu. Transfer tofu to medium bowl. Using fork, mash into small pieces.
• Spray medium nonstick skillet with nonstick spray; place over medium heat. Add carrot, green onions, ginger and garlic; sauté until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Cool. Mix carrot mixture, almonds, egg white, soy sauce, sesame oil and sesame seeds into tofu. Season with salt and pepper. Shape mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
• If grilling, spray grill rack with nonstick spray, then prepare barbecue (medium heat). If sautéing, spray large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and heat over medium heat. Lightly spray patties on both sides with nonstick spray. Place patties on grill or in skillet and cook until golden brown and heated through, about three minutes per side.
• Place 1 burger on each bun bottom. Top each with 1 tomato slice, some sprouts and bun top and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Blend together egg whites, butter, sugar, flour, vanilla, and salt in a food processor just until smooth.
• Put liner on a baking sheet. Using 2 teaspoons batter per cookie, make 6 mounds, spacing them 3 inches apart, then spread into 4 1/2- to 5-inch rounds with back of a spoon (they will be very thin but try to spread batter as evenly as possible). Sprinkle each round with about 1/2 tablespoon almonds.
• Bake cookies until golden-brown, 7 to 9 minutes. Let stand on baking sheet 1 minute, then, working quickly, remove each cookie with a metal spatula and drape over a rolling pin or a wine bottle (you will need 2 pins or bottles) to form a curved shape. Let stand until crisp, about 20 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Cool liner and baking sheet before making more cookies.

Steps:

• Spread out almonds on a rimmed baking sheet or in a 9x13-inch pan.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place almonds in the preheating oven and toast for 10 to 12 minutes to heighten their flavor. Don't let them burn. Remove from the oven and transfer to a plate so they won't continue toasting. Set aside. Keep the oven on.
• Meanwhile, line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper that extends 2 inches on both sides of the pan. Center the paper across the loose bottom of the pan and clamp the ring closed over the paper and bottom. Grease springform pan and parchment paper. Refrigerate until needed.
• Combine flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Combine sugar, butter, and almond extract in a second bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy and the the sugar is no longer granular. Mix in egg and egg yolk until well combined. Add flour mixture and mix until well combined.
• Measure 1 cup toasted almonds and fold into the batter until evenly distributed. The batter will be thick. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan using a spatula. Sprinkle remaining almonds across the top. Place springform pan on a baking sheet for easier handling and to catch any drips.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 28 minutes. Remove from the oven and set pan on a cooling rack for 10 minutes.
• Unclamp the pan and carefully removing ring. Then carefully slide the hot metal pan bottom out from under the parchment, pulling the bottom in one direction with a potholder, and the parchment together in the opposite direction using a flap of parchment as the handle.
• Cool to room temperature on the parchment on the cooling rack, about 30 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until chilled before cutting into bars, about 2 hours.
