Fruity melon smoothie 🥕🍈🍊 It’s the last Fruity melon smoothie 🥕🍈🍊 It’s the last day of summer and I’m ending with one of my favorite tropical smoothies. It’s loaded with immune boosting ingredients that keep you healthy (and taste so good.)

This smoothie is sort of like an orange julius with a punch from the turmeric/ginger combo. Here’s how to make ⬇️ 

To a blender add:
2 medium sized carrots
2 cups cantaloupe
1 cup mango
1 large orange, peeled
1 thumbnail ginger
1 thumbnail turmeric
1/4 tsp black pepper
300ml filtered water

Blend and divide between 2 smoothie glasses (or enjoy all to yourself!)

NO BOIL BUTTERNUT SQUASH BAKED MAC AND CHEESE 🧀 NO BOIL BUTTERNUT SQUASH BAKED MAC AND CHEESE 🧀 recipe ⬇️ 

Such a mouthful but had to include all the buzzwords for this truly iconic Mac and Cheese! It’s no boil which means you don’t have to do ANY annoying prep boiling the pasta and veggies. So few dishes to wash!

You literally blend the raw butternut squash and potatoes and pour it onto uncooked pasta then bake. The oven does all the work for you! So convenient and SO DELICIOUS. I meal prepped this batch and it held its moisture really well, so make a batch for yourself and enjoy throughout the week! Or of course save and bring a batch to your thanksgiving dinner 🦃 

Here’s how to make 1 batch which is about 8 servings:

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 butternut squash, peeled and chopped (530g)
1 russet potato, peeled and chopped (300g)
1/4 cup tahini
3 cloves garlic
1/2 cup nutritional yeast
2 tsp sea salt
2.5 cups filtered water
2 cups soy milk
1/2 lemon, juice from
16oz elbow pasta
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
2 tbsp butter
chopped rosemary (topping)

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Peel and chop your butternut squash and potato.

2. Add the potato and butternut to a large high speed blender along with the tahini, garlic, nutritional yeast, salt, milk, and water. You’ll be using a lot of liquid so make sure to use a big cup OR blend in 2 rounds. I used a vitamix 8 cup and it just barely fit. 

3. Blend until smooth. Grease a 9x13 or 9x14 baking dish and add in the uncooked pasta. Top with the sauce and squeeze in half the lemon. Stir and cover with foil. Bake for 40 minutes.

4. While the pasta is cooking prep the breadcrumbs. Add softened vegan butter to a dish along with the breadcrumbs and toss to combine. 

5. Once the 40 min are up, remove the mac and cheese from the oven and remove the foil. Add the breadcrumbs in an even layer. Switch the oven to broil.

6. Add the uncovered mac and cheese back into the oven and remove once the top browns. For me this took just under 1 minute, so don’t go far or it’ll burn.

7. Remove from the oven and top with chopped rosemary. Enjoy immediately or save in meal prep containers for about a week.

FIREBALL SHOTS 🔥 recipe ⬇️ Flu season is FIREBALL SHOTS 🔥 recipe ⬇️ 

Flu season is here, and if you want to avoid getting sick you’ll need to make sure your immune system is strong. These fireball shots are ULTRA strong and work to both prevent and shorten sickness.

I really can’t stress how strong they are, so don’t take them every single day. I like to take them the 3-4 days before and after travel & sporadically throughout the season. I recommend freezing leftovers right away to keep the nutrients in tact, but these shots will last about a week! If you’re making for 2 people you shouldn’t have leftovers.

RECIPE ⬇️ 

To a blender add:
3 pieces of ginger
3 pieces of turmeric
1 lemon
1 tsp cayenne
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
500ml coconut water (or filtered water)

Blend until fully combined then pour through a mesh colander or nut milk bag to separate the liquid from the pulp. Divide the liquid between shot glasses (the ones used are linked in my amazon storefront) and enjoy within a week. 

If you’re only making these for yourself, save leftovers in the freezer in ice cube molds.

Let’s make compost 🫒🪴🥬🥑🍊 I do a Let’s make compost 🫒🪴🥬🥑🍊

I do a LOT of cooking and produce a LOT of scraps. I’d been considering getting an outdoor compost but 1. It’s a lot of work and 2. It’s really gross and I can’t deal with the worms 🪱🤢 

I learned about @getlomi which is an indoor compost that turns your scraps into compost which I feed back into the earth via my vegetable & herb garden! If I were to throw in in the regular trash, it ends up rotting in a landfill 😔 

I’ve been using my Lomi for a few months now, here are my takeaways:

—It’s so easy to use
—No, it doesn’t smell AT ALL
—It works well and holds a lot of scraps, but they have to be cut pretty small
—It doesn’t need to be plugged in when not in use so I keep it hidden away out of sight. But it does look really cute on my counter!
—My garden has been doing so well after introducing homemade compost. I’ve noticed a difference in my eggplants specifically, they look and taste so good and have been growing like crazy. 
—The Lomi is expensive but worth it. I haven’t had any issues, it hasn’t made a dent in my power bill, and I don’t have to deal with traditional composting which is the biggest pain and so icky!

If you have any questions or want to learn more head to @getlomi ‘s IG or website, they’ve been super helpful in answering all of my q’s!

Baked Mac n’ Cheez – Plant-Based & Healthy

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

If you like cheese, this recipe is for you! I love creating healthy comfort foods to remind people that being vegan doesn’t mean giving up tasty foods. Health is my number one priority and because food is medicine, my goal is to create dishes that are both nutritious AND taste good. This dish is the epitome of that sentiment! I used Banza chickpea pasta, a homemade nacho cheez sauce, and DELICIOUS vegan pork rinds from Outstanding Foods.

vegan baked mac n’ cheez

Nacho Cheez Sauce

This nacho cheez sauce is a staple in my life – not only does it taste EXACTLY like real nacho cheez (it’s crazy!) it is packed with healthy and nutritious ingredients. It truly is guilt free! The key ingredients in the cheez sauce are:

  • Potatoes
  • Cashews
  • Carrots
  • Light Coconut Milk
  • Herbs

I always end up with a bit more sauce than this recipe requires – simply store it in an airtight container in the fridge for no more than a week and use as a topping on your favorite bowls, pastas, etc.

vegan nacho cheez

BBQ Pork Rind Crumbles

The star of this mac n’ cheez surprisingly isn’t the nacho cheez – it’s the vegan pork rinds! I love Outstanding Foods and couldn’t believe how delicious their products were when I first tried them – the idea around this baked mac n’ cheez is centered around the pork rinds! The products at Outstanding Foods are:

  • Gluten-free
  • Soy-free
  • Contain zero trans fats
  • High protein

Most importantly, they have the texture and flavor of pork rinds without the cruelty, sodium, and saturated fat that comes with pork. It is truly an incredible product and compliments this mac n’ cheez PERFECTLY.

Healthy and Customizable Ingredients

For this recipe I used Banza Chickpea Pasta which may not be accessible for everybody. The good news is any type of pasta will work. I like Banza because I have a bit of an intolerance to gluten, so I opt for gluten-free options as often as possible. The nacho cheez sauce is made from basic vegetables that can be found in most every grocery store. The vegan pork rinds on top can be ordered online, but can be replaced with regular bread or nut crumbs. As always, I am available to help with substitutions or ideas via Instagram @theplantcollective_

  • once the oven is hot, add the mixture to your baking tray and bake for 10 minutes
  • sprinkle the mixture on top of your mac n cheez dish. crank the oven up to 400 degrees and add the dish into the oven for 8-10 minutes. try not to keep it in longer than this or your pasta will dry out
