Non Dairy milks

tell me more! do you cook or sprout the quinoa first?

i love quinoa

 

Yes, I sprout the quinoa. Put it in a blender or food processor with water and sweetener and let it go.


Quinoa is pretty much my all-time favorite food. I also love quinoa pancakes and cookies.

 

I love Silk soy milk. Even before becoming vegan, I hated drinking dairy milk. I just never cared for the taste. I love soy milk though, but I like to drink the chocolate better than just the original. I never tried the vanilla though, has anybody ever tried Silk's brand of vanilla milk?

 

awesome, i'm gonna give it a whirl. how many days of sprouting usually?

hrm, strange, just looked up sprouting quinoa, and sproutman says he doesnt reccomend sprouting it ...meh

 

Rice milk...yummm!!!!!! Makes good pancakes

 

Actually, I got a little confused there, soak not sprout, for about 3 hours.

Though I do believe we've sprouted quinoa for bread before, long time ago.

 

I use Silk soy milk on cereal, and I use coconut milk in cooking. But I still use dairy 1/2 and 1/2 in my coffee --I just CANNOT find something that doesn't taste weird to me. But I'm glad for this thread...I may try some of the others mentioned.

 

Chewymom - it's probably going to taste weird, if you're used to cow's milk. I'm lucky in that I don't take milk in coffee and hardly ever drink tea, so I never had to make that adjustment, but I eat muesli or oatmeal pretty much every day and that took some getting used to. It was never unpleasant, just surprising for a while. You may come to prefer it to the moo juice - I have, and I'm not alone in that.

Off-topic - nimh, I love your turtle!
