spring is hereeee! this spring pea orzo is plant b spring is hereeee! this spring pea orzo is plant based, packed with flavors and nutrients, and is SO easy to make. here’s how:

01 Cook 1 cup of orzo in 2 cups of water. You do NOT have to rinse it, just a personal preference! Meanwhile, add about 2 cups of broccoli florets into a food processor. Pulse until the broccoli has turned into a rice. Careful not to over pulse or it will become soggy.

02 Heat extra virgin olive oil onto a pan then add in the broccoli rice. Cook & stir occasionally for about 10 minutes.

03 Add 1 cup of peas and 1 cup of edamame beans to the rice and stir to combine. After a few minutes, stir in the cooked orzo. Next stir in finely chopped herbs (I recommend parsley, chives, and a few sprigs of dill), sea salt and pepper to taste, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1 cup of vegan shredded cheese (I love Violife.)

04 Stir frequently and once the cheese has melted, remove from heat and serve. Top with lemon zest and an optional drizzle of coconut milk.

The Mediterranean diet has consistently been ranke The Mediterranean diet has consistently been ranked the healthiest diet in the world - luckily for vegans, it doesn’t include many animal products! I combined a few of my favorite vegan items from the mediterranean diet and compacted them into one easy to make lunch bowl. I did add tofu (not on the Mediterranean diet) but if you want to keep it 100% Mediterranean try lentils. This bowl is perfect for meal prep and tastes SO SO good.

RECIPE:

01 Cook 1 cup of quinoa in 2 cups of water. Once done, fluff with a fork then toss with finely chopped dill and parsley.

02 Chop up a block of high protein tofu into cubes. Toss with avocado oil spray, tamari, sea salt, and corn starch.
Once fully coated, air fry the tofu at 375 until crispy. Give them a stir after 12 minutes then air fry for another 8-10 minutes.

03 Wash about 6 baby potatoes and peel away any sprouts. Cut each potato into 4 wedges. Toss with avocado oil spray, sea salt, paprika, and zatar seasoning. Air fry at 400 degrees for about 12-15 minutes or until crispy.

04 To a dish add 1/2 cup Tahini, juice from 1/2 Lemon, 1/2 tsp Sea Salt, 1/4 tsp Black Pepper and 3-4 tbsp Water (add more if you want a runnier consistency.)

05 Chop up one large tomato, 2 Persian cucumbers, and set aside about 12 green olives and arugula.

06 Divide all ingredients into four bowls or meal prep containers. 1 serving includes 1 cup of arugula, 1/4th of the herby quinoa, 1/4th of the crispy tofu, about 5 potato wedges, 1/4th of the cucumber and tomato, 3 green olives, and a generous drizzle of lemon tahini. The remaining portions will stay good about 5 days. Enjoy!

I often get asked as a vegan why I still eat produ I often get asked as a vegan why I still eat products that look and taste like real meat, and the answer is really simple - because no animals were harmed! I wasn’t always vegan, and I used to eat beef all the time. I love @abbotsbutcher because they nailed it on the taste, the ingredients are super clean, and the macros are impressive. 

This beef korma is one of my favorite healthy vegan dinners - I always make a big batch like this and save the leftovers. Recipe ⬇️ 

INGREDIENTS: 
1 tbsp avo oil
1 onion, chopped
12 raw cashews
1 cup non-dairy yogurt (I used @kitehillfoods Greek yogurt) 
2 tsp turmeric 
2 tbsp cilantro leaves 
1 tsp paprika 
2 tsp garam masala 
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cardamom 
1 tsp grated ginger 
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 package @abbotsbutcher beef
Salt to taste 
Cilantro to garnish
Rice to serve

INSTRUCTIONS
01 Add avocado oil to a pot and heat on medium-low. Add onions and slowly sauté for 10-15 min, stirring occasionally until browned.

02 To a bowl add the yogurt, turmeric, salt and pepper, paprika, and garam masala. Whisk to combine.

03 Allow onions to cool, then transfer to a blender with the cashews, cilantro, and the yogurt mix. Blend for a minute or so.

04 Heat more avocado oil in the same pot on medium-low heat. Add cinnamon, cardamom, garlic, pepper, and ginger. Sauté for about one minute, or until spices are fragrant.

05 Add Abbot’s Butcher “Beef” to the pan and cook according to package instructions.

06 Stir in the spiced yogurt and salt to taste. Add water and stir until it’s fully incorporated.

07 Remove from heat and garnish with cilantro. Serve with rice.

Brussels Sprouts Salad

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This Brussels Sprouts Salad is a recent favorite of mine. The ingredients are whole foods, plant-based, incredibly easy to prepare, and amazing for weight loss OR weight gain simply by adjusting your portion size. 

vegan brussels sprouts salad

Whole Foods Plant-Based

This well rounded salad is packed with healthy carbs, protein, and fats:

  • Protein. I used Trader Joe’s High Protein Tofu which contains 14g of protein for just one portion, which is 1/5 of the block. I also included raw spinach, pepitas, and quinoa which are all great sources of protein.
  • Fat. Healthy fats are essential in moderation, and this salad features 1/2 an avocado, pepitas, and Primal Kitchen Vegan Ranch Dressing which all together equal out to about 22g of fat.
  • Carbs. The quinoa and chickpeas in this salad are a great source of complex carbs. Together, they equal out to around 42g carbs.

Quick & Easy

This recipe in total took me under 30 min to prepare. I marinated my tofu in soy sauce and lime juice then popped it into my air fryer, but if you don’t have one feel free to use your oven or just sautee them in a pan. The brussels sprouts will need to be baked for at least 20 minutes – you can see the full recipe for the SMASHED BRUSSELS SPROUTS HERE. I love this salad as a meal prep option, and store the ingredients in my absolute favorite meal prep container from BENTGO.
