Homemade Paneer with Whey Whole-Wheat Rotis
Fresh paneer is mild, springy, and made with just milk and lemon juice. The whey does not go down the sink: part of it replaces the liquid in cumin-spiked whole-wheat rotis, giving the dough a gentle tang.
Chocolate-Yacon Almond Butter
A simple homemade almond butter blended until silky, then nudged into deeper territory with a little cocoa powder and yacon syrup at the end. It is rich, roasty, and far more interesting than another sad swipe of plain spread pretending to be a personality. Nutritionally, almonds bring healthy unsaturated fats, fiber, and plant protein, while the cocoa powder adds a darker edge and extra polyphenols. Using nuts as the star keeps the recipe plant-forward and aligned with an Eat-Lancet style way of eating: satisfying, practical, and lighter on the planet than dairy-heavy spreads.
