Crowns

  • 2 tbsp burghul

  • 2 tbsp vegan margarine
  • 1 tbsp nooch nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp Vegeta powder or vegan bouillon powder, or just salt
  • 1 c chorizo either storebought or homemade

Drink

  • 1/2 tbsp basil seeds may look like poppy seeds or black sesame seeds or even chia seeds, but they are definitely not the same - available at Asian stores or online

  • 2 tbsp sugar dissolved in 1 c cold water
  • 1 medium size tomato washed
  • Crushed ice/ice cubes

  • Mix in chorizo
  • Wash tomatoes and slice into 8 slices, slicing from top to halfway down, without cutting through.
  • Open these slices carefully and fill the center with chorizo mixture

Drink

  • Bloom basil seeds in water. This will only take a minute (unlike chia seeds, overnight)
  • Slice tomato into two, crush one slice and cube/dice the other half
  • Spoon crushed tomato into serving glass, stir in enough bloomed basil seeds, then pour in sugar water . Add in cubed tomatoes.
