My favorite part of summer is cooking fresh health My favorite part of summer is cooking fresh healthy meals while it’s still light out ☀️ This is a pistachio tofu with a delicious zucchini rice summer salad 🥗 inspired by @soulsyncbody 

Recipe ⬇️ 
pistachio tofu ingredients—
2 slices of high protein/extra firm tofu (about 2/5 of 1 block)
1/4 cup pistachios
2 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp agave
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp lemon juice

zucchini rice salad ingredients—
1 cup cooked brown rice
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/4 cup mint, finely chopped
1 zucchini, diced
salt & pepper
lemon squeeze
drizzle of olive oil

Instructions:
01 Start by slicing your tofu and scoring each side. Be careful not to accidentally cut it in half! Stir together the marinade and add to a shallow bowl. Let the tofu marinate while you prep the rest of the meal.

02 Cook your brown rice. Meanwhile, chop up your zucchini and toss with a splash of olive oil, salt and pepper. Air fry at 375 for about 10 min. While that’s baking chop up your mint and cherry tomatoes.

03 Once your tofu has marinated for at least 20 minutes, cover the top with chopped pistachios. If your pistachios aren’t salted, add a pinch of salt. Add to the air fryer and bake at 375 degrees for about 8-10 minutes. Keep your eye on them to make sure the pistachios don’t burn.

04 Add the zucchini rice salad ingredients together - brown rice, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, mint, olive oil, lemon, salt, and pepper - toss then divide between 2 plates. Serve with one of the tofu fillets.

Enjoy!

grandma core 💐🥕🥞🪴🐶 I’ve been em grandma core 💐🥕🥞🪴🐶 

I’ve been embracing slow living these days. Nancy meyers type of grandma hood, tending to the garden and crocheting🪴🧶 

Some things I’ve been prioritizing in grandma hood:

~daily morning pages. just writing down absolutely everything on my mind the first few minutes of the day to clear my mind.

~growing fresh produce. this has been such a fun one, I have 2 raised beds and a bunch of fruit trees in my yard and eating my own food I grew myself makes me slow down and appreciate it so much more!

~reading >> tv/tiktok. idk about you guys but social media has been rotting my a brain a lil bit. reading feels sooo much better mentally.

~mocktails >> cocktails. I rarely drink alcohol anymore and it’s done wonders for my mind and my skin. look for for mocktail content from me in the near future!

~chai and matcha >> coffee. coffee gives me jitters and anxiety, and that just does not align with grandma hood! I use chamberlain coffee’s chai and matcha, both are sooo so delicious and imo better than coffee.

Deconstructed Baked Potato Bowl

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe
deconstructed baked potato bowl

This Deconstructed Baked Potato Bowl is for those of you craving Southern comfort food but still want to be healthy. At first glance this bowl may look unhealthy, but it’s made from whole foods plant-based ingredients!

Baked Potato Bowl Essentials

This bowl features all the ingredients you’d get by deconstructing a loaded baked potato, with a healthy twist of course. In this bowl is:

  • Mashed Potatoes. Packed with fiber and keeps you full for hours.
  • Crispy Tofu. High protein & adds a flavorful crunch.
  • Black Beans. Protein & fiber.
  • Green Peas. Healthy digestion. 
  • Corn. Healthy digestion. 
  • Jalapeño. Nutrient dense & spicy.
  • Shredded Vegan Cheese. There are no incredible benefits per se, but the vegan cheese adds such a delicious flavor. Here are my favorite vegan cheese brands:
amazon violife shredded cheese
$30Violife Mozzarella Shreds
(Amazon)
amazon miyokos shredded cheese
$75 / 8-packMiyokos Shredded Cheese
(Amazon)
amazon Parmela Creamery Mozzarella
$5Parmela Creamery Mozzarella
(Amazon)

If you want to replace any of the ingredients or make it even more loaded, try:

  • Seitan. If you’re not a tofu fan and can handle gluten, replace the crispy tofu with seitan “chick’n”. I typically buy boxed seitan (in a similar container as tofu) and pan fry it with veggie broth and umami bouillon.
Franklin Farms Seitan amazon
$6Franklin Farms Seitan
(Amazon)
Vital Wheat Gluten amazon
$10Vital Wheat Gluten
(Amazon)
Upton's Naturals Chorizo Seitan amazon
$5Upton's Naturals Chorizo Seitan
(Amazon)
  • Tempeh Bacon. If you’d prefer bacon over crispy tofu or seitan, tempeh is going to be your best bet.
lightlife original tempeh amazon
$3.30Lightlife Original Tempeh
(Amazon)
Lightlight Smoky Bacon Tempeh amazon
$5.50Lightlight "Smoky Bacon" Tempeh
(Amazon)
Tofurkey Treehouse Tempeh safeway
$3Tofurkey Treehouse Tempeh
(Safeway)
  • Sour Cream. The mashed potatoes are extremely creamy, but if you want more cream with a little tang, add vegan sour cream. To find my vegan sour cream recipe, head to my GIANT WHITE BEAN CHILI post.

BBQ Sauce

Finding a good BBQ sauce is key in this recipe. The BBQ sauce brings it all together and really makes it feel like you’re eating an authentic home cooked Southern meal. Here are some of my favorite brands of BBQ sauce:

Primal Kitchen Classic BBQ Sauce amazon
$17.50 / 2-packPrimal Kitchen Classic BBQ Sauce
(Amazon)
The New Primal Smoky BBQ thrive market
$6.30The New Primal Smoky BBQ
(Thrive Market)
Jack Daniel's Sweet & Spicy BBQ Sauce amazon
$15Jack Daniel's Sweet & Spicy BBQ Sauce
(Amazon)

Bread Crumbs

For the crispy tofu, you will need breadcrumbs to act as the crisp. You can totally just use nutritional yeast and opt out of breadcrumbs, but there are some really great gluten-free options I love:

Longeve Panko Breadless Crumbs amazon
$8Longeve Panko Breadless Crumbs
(Amazon)
Longeve Plain Breadless Crumbs amazon
$8Longeve Plain Breadless Crumbs
(Amazon)
Cauli Crunch amazon
