I love meals like this because it proves how easy I love meals like this because it proves how easy and stress-free cooking can be! I just grabbed what I had on hand and it turned out so bomb 🤤 

Here’s what I came up with:

—Roasted veggies. I used cauliflower, broccoli, butternut squash, and yellow bell pepper. I tossed the veg in @getgraza olive oil, sea salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic. Bake at 400 degrees for about 30 min stirring once halfway thru.

—Cajun Chick’n from @daringfoods SO insanely delicious and was ready in 5 minutes. Like I can’t stress how tasty this vegan chick’n is.

—Chickpea pasta @eatbanza Kept it super simple and just stirred in a cube of vegan butter. So yummy and has a good amount of protein.

—Arugula salad. I tossed arugula with a splash of @getgraza olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, salt and pepper. It added suchhh a nice flavor.

Lemon Yogurt Cake w/ Lemon Cashew Glaze

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I’m a sucker for heathy vegan desserts, and this Lemon Yogurt Cake w/ a Lemon Cashew Glaze really takes the cake (no pun intended🥴) It’s moist, creamy, and decadent! The yogurt adds a rich texture that will leave you super satiated and nourished, and paired with the lemon flavors is truly a game changer. Enjoy for breakfast, or as a sweet treat after dinner.

Lemon Zest vs. Lemon Juice

I love using the zest of fruit because it adds even more flavor than the actual juice – sometimes I zest and juice a bunch of lemons and store them in airtight containers in the fridge for easy access. When you zest you only need a small amount – this recipe only requires the zest of 1 lemon and even when it’s spread apart into 8 slices, the zest is super fragrant. An important tip — leave the white part behind. You only need the very top, yellow layer. The white part is bitter, so be sure not to over grate.

Oat + Coconut Flour Blend

The taste of coconut flour is delicious in this recipe, and I love using it because it’s lower carb and higher fiber. It does absorb more liquid than a normal wheat flour, so you may have to adjust the amount of milk you use. I used 3 tbsp and it worked pretty well, but if your batter is too dry and doughey, add more milk. The oat flour does not absorb as much liquid which helps balance it out, plus is super easy to prepare (just grind in your blender!)

The lemon cashew glaze is delicious and is beyond simple to prepare. I used an electric hand mixer to speed up the process, but if you don’t have one whisking normally is fine. To ensure your lemon cashew glaze is more of a glaze as opposed to a thick frosting, keep your cashew butter at room temperature so it’s not too hard. If you want your glaze to be a frosting consistency, combine 3-4 tbsp of vanilla bean powder into the mix.

This yogurt lemon cake can be enjoyed as a decadent dessert, or for breakfast with a hot cup of tea. If you know me you know I’m obsessed with SAKARA and a Sakara signature is having a baked good for breakfast – these slices come out super tiny, but are still rich and satiating thanks to the yogurt. To really capture a Sakara style breakfast, be sure to add fresh raspberries on top.

This recipe is inspired from by travels to Italy and their use of lemons – it’s perfect for summertime and is a crowd pleaser!

The crunchy tamari tofu is the star - chop 1/2 block of high protein tofu into cubes and toss in 1 tbsp avocado oil, 2 tbsp tamari, and 2 tbsp corn starch. Air fry until crispy! 

Pair it with warm quinoa, crisp shredded romaine, refreshing cucumber and avocado, black sesame seeds, and flavorful spicy mayo. I use @primalkitchenfoods vegan mayo and any sriacha. To dieee for.
