By Leave a Comment

Stuck for dinner? Craving tastiness? Need some veggies in your life?

DO THIS.

A basic vegan curry AKA… a fool-proof way to get nutrients in your bod’ without having to think.

Switch up the veggies according to the season, your personal vibe, or what ever you may have kicking around in that fridge of yours.

This recipe works with pretty much any kind of potato or veggie…

You could switch out the sweet potatoes for russet potatoes or turnips or butternut squash or pumpkin…

You could switch out the eggplant + cauliflower with carrots, broccoli, peppers, zucchinis…

You could switch out the chickpeas with edamame or red lentils or black beans or kidney beans or peas…

It’s your call! And it’s the perfect way to use up those veggies that have been staring at you in the face for the last week…saying ‘use meeee’!

You’re welcome, veggies.

OK on to the recipe.

Pumpkin Pie Smoothie Bowl

By Leave a Comment

It’s that time of the year. Bring out the pumpkin everything. Especially this drool-worthy pumpkin pie smoothie bowl.

Why is that word so comforting?

… pumpkin…ahhhhhh, Yes.

Fall, I see you. This pumpkin pie smoothie bowl hits that comfy spot, with some extra surprise nutrition.

Not only will you devour each n’ every spoonful of this deliciousness (and lick the bowl), but you’ll also reap the benefits of a couple secret ingredients. I’m talking about Pranin’s Iron and Vitamin C powders sourced straight from whole foods.

Why take Iron and Vitamin C together? Vitamin C enhances the absorption of the iron in your GI tract.

The beauty of using these whole food supplement powders is that you’re getting the good stuff from whole food sources! The vitamin C and Iron comes from a blend of organic curry leaves, amla berries and moringa leaves. Boom.

Blend this up for yourself and reap the benefits of vitamins + minerals not only from the extra whole food supplements, but also the pumpkin purée, dates, and bananas. Serious YUM in ma tum.

Protein-Packed Vegan Almond Banana Muffins | Gluten-Free

By Leave a Comment

September lunch boxes just got a whole lot yummier.

These Nana’Nut Muffins are ones for the box.

Almond flour packs the protein punch here. Find it in the store… or make your own!

How? Whip up some homemade almond milk, then instead of throwing the almond pulp in the compost, dry it out (in a dehydrator at 110F for 10 hours, or in the oven for 2 hours at the lowest setting), then blend it to a flour!

Devour these warm with some homemade jam, or pack them away for your next day at the office or adventure in the mountains.

Simple Creamy Tomato Pasta with Chick’n | Vegan + Oil-Free

By Leave a Comment

A week night dinner saviour!

This pasta is super delish, and takes no time.

The creaminess? Hello cashews.

The simple-ness? Hello blender.

Pretend you’re a top chef for a minute with out actually having the credentials.

The biggest bonus of it all? The creaminess and decadent mouth feel we all crave… doesn’t have to come from the cow!

As for the vegan chick’n; it can be taken out completely, or replaced with any other kind of vegan meat you like. I’m thinking cauliflower ground round would be delish in here from Big Mountain Foods, or Gusta sausages, or Very Good Butcher’s bangers, or Field Roast sausages, or a little more indulgent Gardein or Yves ground round. Make this multiple times, and switch it up every time!

Why not add a side of steak? Cauliflower steak that is… Just douse a thick slice of cauliflower in your fave sauce (used Naked Coconut Teriyaki for this one), and sear them on the BBQ for 4-5 minutes a side!

Don’t forget to whip up some ridiculously easy vegan parm.
