Here is the recipe for the ‘cheese’
(I will be trying another recipe that will use potatoes and carrots, and no cashews …. I will report when that occurs….)
But this I made today was wonderful, and easy.
For the ‘chips’, I cut Corn Tortillas into strips, and baked them for 18 minutes at 350. Keep an eye on these, they go from ‘just right’ to ‘burnt’ in a ‘blink of an eye’.
When they were out of the oven, I sprayed pickle juice on them and then added Garlic Powder for seasoning. You can use Low Sodium Soy or, whatever to wet the surface so the seasonings ‘stick’.
(That is what I do to flavor my potato wedges now. Burnt Seasonings do not taste good to me…)
The ‘veggie patties’ are actually refrigerator clean out…
Left over beans, Steamed Greens/Carrots, Steamed Sweet Potatoes, Old Fashioned Oats (uncooked), Garlic, Spinach (raw), left over Whole Wheat Spaghetti, Cauliflower Taco Stuff, Low Sodium Soy Sauce, Spices galore! were all put into the food processor and mixed in a casserole plate thing ….
From here, I hand made patties for baking.
I always use Parchment Paper to line the pans.
I baked at 350 for 45 minutes, then let them cool a bit, then I turned them over and sprinkled Garlic Powder on the side I turned up.
After they cooled, I put in containers for the frig, and I placed a paper towel between each patty.
But I diced a couple of the patties and placed in a skillet on the stove top, and browned them for the topping to the Nachos!
I added fresh Spinach, Onions, Tomatoes, and fresh chopped Garlic to mine…
as well as the ‘sauce’…
The last thing I did was what I always do with every plate of food I eat… I did not count calories, I did not measure protein, and I never fear carbs…
I sure do love eating!

Today, I am 63 years and one day old. Over the last three years I have lost 79 pounds and never really tried. I just wanted to eat healthy. I never went hungry any longer than it took to grab a fruit, vegetable, potato, or bowl of beans. (some were raw, and some were cooked) When I felt hungry, I ate till I was full… but I ate something WHOLE FOOD PLANT BASED. No junk food, and as little processed ‘food’ as possible. No meat, no animal products, no eggs, no dairy. I do not use any cooking oils of any kind, no olive, no coconut oil, nor Quaker State (except in my car) but not in this body! Today I jogged on a treadmill non-stop for 61 minutes at 2.6 mph. I plan to almost triple that speed in the next year. I want to also invite you to my Birthday Party in 2065. More details about that event as time draws nearer. ‘Like’ and ‘follow’ me here at oldmanskinandbones.com to get the latest information about the location of the Party, what presents I might like, and whether the ‘clothing optional’ issue has been resolved so you know what to wear … or not …
More later…
omsb ….
p.s. There will be music played at the Party. I can promise my ‘Workout Play List’ will be a major part of the songs you will hear, and have the opportunity to dance to …
