VEGAN SALTED CARAMEL PUDDING

Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat until it’s a high simmer. Continue to cook, stirring constantly throughout until it thickens slightly and becomes darker in colour. Mine takes about 13 minutes overall. Take the pot off the heat and whisk in the cornflour until smooth, making sure there aren’t any lumps. Whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup of coconut milk, almond milk and vanilla extract and place the pot on medium to high heat. Make sure to stir regularly, I like to use a heat resistant silicone spatula for this.

Easy Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches

Easy Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches Home » Uncategories » Easy Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches 3-4 large chicken breasts (about 1.5 pounds) 1 (12oz) bottle of Frank's Buffalo Wing Sauce 1/2 packet ranch seasoning mix (about 2 tbsp) 2 tbsp butter hoagie rolls for serving Spray your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Place the chicken, buffalo sauce, and ranch seasoning mix in, and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or high for about 3 hours.  Once the chicken is fully cooked, use a couple of forks to shred the meat (I find it easiest to place the chicken on a cutting board to shred, and then put it back into the crockpot with the juices).  Once shredded, add 2 tbsp of butter to the crockpot and allow it to melt; stir to combine.  That's it! I find it best served on hoagie rolls drizzled with a little ranch dressing. You can also serve with blue cheese crumbles or coleslaw. Read Full Recipe ---> Click Here
