The vegan clease allows for potatoes…okay, so not what I’d usually have on a ‘cleanse’ but since I’m opting not to have corn or any flours at all (even GF), I’ll take an inch when its ‘allowed’.
Being the creative kitchen gal I am, I wanted to raise the potato bar and do something fun. Besides, it was day 4 and Matt was starting to get might cranky, missing his favorite dairy and meat foods. We decided to make a vegan burger and fries meal:
Grilled portabello with spices
Green lettuce leaf ‘buns’
fixin’s: mustard, red onion, and tomato
“cheezy” fries.
See video below for the fries, but basically I cut up 2 lbs of red potatoes, marinated them in EVOO, salt, pepper and brewer’s yeast (what gives them the ‘cheezy’ appeal) and baked at 400 for about 17 minutes. Delicious! The whole meal was tasty!
Afternote: I definitely ate too many fries and it made we me want sugar. I satisfied my urge with a not-so delicious apple, but it worked. And hey, part of this clease is about facing those cravings and realizing the feeling is transient, relatively meaningless, and I feel much better having gone for the apple and not for some other treat!
Enjoy the video, and remeber, it is homemade (AKA, not perfect)

We do ‘oven fries’ all the time at our house–cut to any shape bakers, red, or sweet potatoes (or all 3). Then drizzle with olive oil, salt & pepper to taste, stir and then bake at 425F for about 40 min (we like ’em crispy) , stirring every 10. I like the idea about the brewer’s yeast…hadn’t thought about that adding cheesy taste!
