Dietary Substitutions for Edible Experiments
Gluten Free
Pasta Primavera >> Use gluten-free pasta.
Scientific Salad Dressing >> Use gluten-free croutons.
Dairy Allergy
Pasta Primavera >> Use dairy-free milk (such as almond, soy, or rice) and dairy-free Parmesan Cheese, such as Go Veggie.
Whipped Chocolate Mousse >> For the whipped cream, chill 1 14-ounce can of coconut cream or coconut milk in the fridge overnight (do not shake or tip the can). Before whipping, chill the bowl for 10 minutes. Remove the coconut cream or milk from the fridge and remove the lid without shaking or tipping the can. Scrape out the top thickened cream and leave the liquid in the can. Place the cream in the mixing bowl and continue with Step 6 as outlined (hint: it should only take about 1 minute for cream to whip up.) Reserve a portion of the cream for the garnish and stir in powdered sugar to taste desired sweetness (you may also add in a splash of vanilla extract).
