University of Connecticut
BEST VEGAN RECIPE
GOLD:
CINNAMON CHIPOTLE CACHAPAS WITH
BLACK BEAN AVOCADO SALSA AND
PICKLED RED ONION
A vegan favorite at the University of Connecticut, Cinnamon
Chipotle Cachapas with Black Bean Avocado Salsa and
Pickled Red onion, was showcased initially during a " Plant
Forward " event. immediately following its introduction,
numerous students asked if the cachapas, a venezuelan corn
pancake, could be a staple item on the menu. Feedback
included several favorable testimonials:
" the corn pancake recipe was super flavorful. Avocado salsa
on top was a great compliment. i'd eat this every day! " " ...
Keep 'em on the menu, please! " " the corn pancakes were
A-MAZing!...best vegan dish i've ever had. Make them again
soon, PLEASE. "
the main ingredients (i.e. black beans, onions, cilantro,
avocado, and corn) are frequently used in many recipes on
campus and readily available, making this recipe easy to
incorporate, and the raw food cost of each serving is $0.98,
making it an affordable addition. the recipe provides a great
source of protein and high fiber, is antioxidant-rich, and
contains omega-3 fatty acids and other healthy vitamins.
the ingredients are sourced from a local, family-owned
produce company, who also helped build the vegan program
on campus. vegan options are available in all dining facilities
on campus (eight residential dining halls, six cafes, food
court, catering, and food truck). in 2021, the first 100 percent
plant-based café, CrossRoads, opened.
the recipe is also available as gluten-free and vegetarian.
