Especially with something that is prepared with your own hands, with love!

Most likely, when you prepared juice at home for the first time, you were surprised by the amount of pulp that remains after squeezing the juice. But the cake has a large amount of fiber, which you simply cannot throw away!

What to cook from carrot cake (or other vegetable or fruit) is a question that is of interest not only to you. The network has many recipes for preparing various dishes, ranging from salads and appetizers to full-fledged main courses: vegan cutlets, soups, burgers, pies, muffins, pates and even sushi! It turned out that carrot cake does not need to be thrown away; from it, like from whole carrots, you can prepare a considerable number of healthy, and at the same time tasty, dishes. Let's get to know them.

Guacamole with carrot cake, herbs and avocado

Guacamole is a thick sauce or paste, which is originally prepared from the pulp of a ripe avocado with lime or lemon juice, salt and red hot pepper. Often tomato pulp, onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro are added to guacamole. sweet pepper, spices.

The recipe for our guacamole is slightly different from the original. We will need:

• 1/2 bunch fresh cilantro (or parsley)

• salt, black ground pepper

Finely chop the greens. Puree the avocado (with a fork or blender). Mix greens with carrot cake, avocado, lemon juice and salt. Mix thoroughly. You can return it to the blender to give the guacamole a uniform, smooth texture.

Serve the sauce on croutons, tortillas, tortillas, vegan burgers, and fresh vegetables. Guacamole is a great pasta dressing.

Carrot pulp cutlets

Making carrot cutlets is no more difficult than squeezing juice out of carrots! Vegetable cake (you can use a mixture of carrots, potatoes, zucchini, pumpkin, etc.) should be mixed with mashed potatoes and spices. Then form cutlets and fry in vegetable oil until golden brown.

In the recipe, potatoes replace eggs and serve to hold the remaining ingredients together.

You can serve cake cutlets with any vegetable side dish, cereals or pasta.

Carrot pulp sushi

Everything ingenious is simple. How to replace rice in sushi and rolls to create a raw food dish? Of course with carrot cake! Nori seaweed, carrot, cucumber, avocado, pickled hot pepper, A little soy sauce(raw food) and wasabi - all you need to enjoy delicious live rolls.

Dietary, low-calorie, aromatic and delicious soup from carrot cake. By analogy, you can prepare pumpkin soup.

We will need:

• 2 tbsp. vegetable cake
• 2 tbsp. coconut milk (almond milk is fine)
• 0.5 tsp. fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tsp. curry spices

As soon as the carrot soup starts to boil, turn off the stove.

The soup will be hot, spicy, with a smoky flavor thanks to the fresh ginger.

Gingerbread cupcakes made from carrot cake

A similar recipe is. There are some differences in ingredients and preparation technology. Carrot cake is made without eggs and is completely vegan.

Spices: cinnamon. Addition to the pie - walnuts.

Compared to carrot muffins, pie is a cheaper and easier version of vegetarian baking.

Raw food cakes made from pulp

To make crackers, you will definitely need a dehydrator (dryer for vegetables and fruits) or a summer sun. Just like the muffins, ground flax seeds are used to hold the dough together. Thanks to flax, the dough will have a dense texture and will be easy to roll out on the table surface.

Flax seeds are an optional ingredient. You can make it from carrot cake with herbs and spices, adding a little water. However, when dried, the bread may crack slightly and look less appetizing.

By the way, you can serve these crackers with guacamole with avocado and the same carrot cake!

In the last issue we talked about.

Do you like freshly squeezed juice? If yes, then most likely you often use carrots to prepare it. So you have repeatedly thought about how you can use the carrot pulp left after squeezing the juice. She is so attractive to look at and there is so much of her left that I can’t even bring myself to throw away this beauty. And don't! We invite you to adopt several recipes in which you can use carrot cake.

Carrot pancakes

Ingredients:

• 1 cup carrot pulp
• 2 eggs
• 1 glass of kefir
• 1.5 cups flour
• 0.5 tsp soda
• sugar, vanilla sugar, salt - to taste

Mix all ingredients in a deep bowl. The result should be a dough with a consistency similar to thick sour cream. If the dough turns out liquid, add flour. Place the frying pan on gas and lightly grease it vegetable oil. We carry out this procedure only before frying the first batch of pancakes. We fry the next batches of pancakes without oil, since it is already in the dough.

Cottage cheese casserole with carrots

Ingredients:

• 0.5 kg carrot cake
• 1 kg cottage cheese
• 4 eggs
• 4 tbsp semolina
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup raisins
• zest of one lemon

Set aside 1 egg. Mix the remaining ingredients thoroughly. Take a baking dish and grease it butter and spread the dough. Now take the previously laid egg and beat it thoroughly with a whisk. Brush the casserole with beaten egg and sprinkle with semolina or breadcrumbs. Place the pan in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 40 minutes.

Carrot soup

Ingredients:

• 1 liter of meat broth
• 400 g carrot cake
• 1 onion
• 100 grams of processed cheese
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• green
• ground black pepper

Finely chop the onion and lightly fry it in vegetable oil along with the carrot pulp. Next, pour 1 cup of broth into the pan, cover with a lid and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Pour the remaining broth into the pan and bring to a boil. Then add onions and carrots to the pan, grated processed cheese, salt and pepper to taste and, stirring continuously, bring the soup to a boil again. Now season it with chopped herbs and remove the pan from the heat. All that remains is to let the soup cool for 15-20 minutes and beat it with a blender.

Lenten carrot cookies

Ingredients:

• 2 cups carrot pulp
• 0.5 glasses of water
• 1 cup sugar
• 1.5-2 cups flour
• pinch of salt

Pour carrot pulp, sugar, salt into a bowl, add water and mix thoroughly. Add flour little by little until we have a soft, elastic dough. Divide the dough into portions and roll them into layers 1.5-2 cm thick. Cut out the cookies using baking molds or a regular glass. We take a baking sheet, cover it with parchment and lay out our cookies, then place the baking sheet in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 10 minutes.

And finally, a little advice. If you have much more carrot cake on hand than you need to prepare a dish, do not rush to throw it away. Divide it into portions and freeze. And you will definitely need it!

After purchasing a juicer, I started looking on the Internet for recipes that could be made from the pulp left over from squeezing the juice. And that's what I

At first adviсe
for cooking
from carrot pulp:

1. With proper spin the cake remains quite dry(of course, if, as my grandmother did, you do not grate carrots and squeeze the juice by hand, but use a modern juicer) and this should always be taken into account when combining carrot cake with juicier products in dishes. In general, from the “correct”, juicy carrots, the cake turns out to be more juicy and, accordingly, it is better to cook from it. If the cake is completely dry, it is only suitable for preparing first courses and stewing.

2. If you have a lot of pulp left after squeezing the juice, do not try to use it right away. Add the cake to the dish strictly according to the recipe, and unused - freeze in portions(if you freeze the whole thing at once, then it will be very problematic to “pick out” the required amount of cake from a large piece without defrosting it).

3. Sometimes they remain in the cake small pieces of ungrated carrots. Select them immediately and freeze them separately - these are full-fledged juicy carrots and should be used for their intended purpose in other dishes.

4. Carrot pulp basically You can replace carrots in almost all dishes, where grated carrots are usually used (if you have carrots themselves juicy).

Don't forget about our little brothers. Fiber is also good for them. For example, when preparing food for a dog, it is very good add carrot pulp(carrots are included in all premium food)

Contraindications.
There are practically no contraindications for taking pumpkin juice, only individual intolerance. Drink with caution if you have gastritis, stomach and duodenal ulcers, or severe diabetes.

Also, don’t forget about the benefits of pumpkin seeds. Pumpkin seeds have been used since ancient times in folk medicine as an anthelmintic, as well as for diseases of the genitourinary organs, especially with spasms that make urination difficult.

Pumpkin seeds contain an important element - zinc, which affects the sexual sphere. It is good to eat pumpkin seeds for prostatitis, as well as menopause in women. Improves blood circulation, has a beneficial effect on blood vessels...

About the benefits of zinc
“Zinc acts like a street traffic cop, directing and monitoring the efficient flow of processes in the body, maintaining enzyme systems and cells. Necessary for protein synthesis. Controls muscle contractility. Helps in the formation of insulin. Important for maintaining blood consistency and acid-base balance in the body.
It has a normalizing effect on the prostate and is important for the development of all reproductive organs. New research suggests an important role for zinc in brain function and in the treatment of schizophrenia. There is strong evidence for its importance in DNA synthesis.
Accelerates the healing of internal and external wounds. Eliminates white spots on nails. Helps eliminate loss of taste. Helps in the treatment of infertility. Helps avoid problems with the prostate gland. Promotes growth and mental activity. Helps reduce cholesterol deposits. Diseases caused by zinc deficiency: possible prostate hypertrophy (non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland), atherosclerosis.
The best natural sources: steak, lamb chop, pork fillet, wheat ovary, brewer's yeast, pumpkin seeds, eggs, low-fat dry milk, mustard.
It is best to take chelated zinc. Zinc can be found in combination with vitamin C, magnesium and B vitamins."

Important!- You should drink freshly squeezed juice; with every minute of inactivity, a huge amount of useful elements in the juice are lost.

So, peel the pumpkin from the skin and core, separate the seeds. Seeds - for drying. And juice is made from the pulp.

To enhance the effect of the juice and improve its taste, I usually make juice from pumpkin with carrots (about 2/3 pumpkin and 1/3 carrots).

Since modern common juicers leave a lot of waste - semi-dry cake, I came up with the idea of ​​​​making pancakes from it. Also, pumpkin and carrot squeezes are good to add to baked goods - Lenten honey gingerbread. This additive only improves the gingerbread - it rises better and becomes fluffier.

Pumpkin and carrot pancakes

• 1 egg
• 3-4 tablespoons flour
• about 1 cup milk(can be replaced with any fermented milk product - fermented baked milk, kefir, sour cream - add half a glass to a glass of boiled water, etc.)
• 1.5-2 cups squeezes pumpkins With carrots(small pieces, discard large pieces)
• 1/3 tsp. spoons soda slaked with vinegar
• 2-3 tsp. spoons of sugar (to taste)
• salt(pinch), you can add vanillin And cinnamon

We usually fry the pancakes in a frying pan with vegetable oil, on both sides until golden brown.

Pancakes are delicious with sour cream, jam and honey. They are good piping hot or can be eaten cold. Tasty, profitable, convenient.

Bon appetit!

During the fruit and berry harvest season, many begin to intensively use juicers and juicers to prepare various drinks for the winter. After the spinning procedure, a large amount of cake remains, which is a pity to throw away. Try making marshmallows from it. We will tell you how to do this correctly in this article.

Cooking recipe example homemade marshmallow will be presented based on apple pulp, and below you can familiarize yourself with various options preparing cake pastille from other products.

• apple pulp – 1 kilogram;
• granulated sugar – 150 grams;
• water – 50 grams.

If you plan to make pastille from the pulp, then the apples should be squeezed in their peeled form, without peels and seeds.

The spent pulp is transferred to a frying pan with a thick bottom or a bowl, kneading the apple mass with your hands. Any large parts of the apple found are chopped with a knife and sent back.

Add water to the apples and boil the contents of the pan for 5 minutes with the lid closed. If the squeezes are very dry, then you can add 2 times more water.

After the apples have softened, granulated sugar is added to them. Mix everything thoroughly and put on the fire to boil for 15 - 20 minutes. The mass should thicken and decrease slightly in volume. To prevent the puree from burning, it must be constantly stirred with a spatula. Ready applesauce cool slightly.

There are three ways to dry puree:

• In the oven. The puree is placed on a silicone mat or wax paper lightly greased with vegetable oil. The layer should not exceed 4 - 5 millimeters. Dry the marshmallow at a temperature of 180 degrees for 20 minutes, and then dry it until ready at a temperature of 60 degrees. Important feature: door oven should be slightly open by about 3 fingers.
• In an electric dryer. The puree is placed in a container for preparing marshmallows or on wire racks covered with baking paper. To prevent the pastille from sticking, the trays are lubricated with vegetable oil. The product is dried at a maximum temperature of 65 - 70 degrees. If the marshmallow is dried in several tiers, then for uniform drying, the trays are periodically swapped.
• In the air. You can also dry pastille from cake in a natural way. To do this, the containers are placed on a glassed-in balcony or simply outside. Containers with marshmallows must be protected from insects. To do this, cover the trays with gauze so that it does not touch the fruit mass. Drying time – 4 – 5 days.

The finished pastille is rolled into rolls or cut into arbitrary shapes. geometric shapes. Store the product in the refrigerator in a plastic container or glass jar.
