Not to mention simplicity.

Some of the best creations are just a few delicious and complementary ingredients.

After some easy steps of roasting, mashing, and assembling, you’ll have a vegan appetizer that will impress even the fanciest cook.

The warmth and chewiness of the sweet potato along with the creamy guacamole and crunchy mung beans…let’s just say it’s a party in your mouth.

These are a great start to any shindig.

Benefits:

Mung bean sprouts are high in vitamin K (for healthy bone density), C (immune boosting), and folate (for healthy blood cells). All raw sprouts are total superfoods. Since they have started their growing process, they are an easily digestible, living food with more nutrients per calorie than any other food.

Sweet potatoes have been a staple in the diet of some of the longest living peoples in history (Okinawans). They have more Vitamin A than any other food, they are packed with healthy carbohydrates, antioxidants, and are stars for combatting inflammation and oxidation. Eat em’ up! I always get delicious, organic sweet potatoes from Spud to my door every Tuesday. Man, I love Tuesdays!! Use my code CRVAN-MURJUB for 20$ off your first order.

Avocados are packed with monounsaturated fatty acids. Great for the hair, skin and nails!

🌱 Nutrient bomb: Broccoli sprouts can pack 20–50x more cancer fighting sulforaphane than ‘normal’  broccoli 🥦 (that’s the compound linked to cancer prevention and detox support)

🌱 Tiny vitamin factory: Sprouting can increase vitamin C content by up to 600%, making them a natural immunity booster.

Randomness in life. Diversity on the plate. And ye Randomness in life. Diversity on the plate. And yes—dance breaks. All equally essential.

The more your plate looks like a rainbow, the better. 🌈

What’s the last random plant you ate?

Every time you bring a new fruit, veggie, grain, legume, tuber, seed, or nut to the table, your microbes throw a little party.

Keep it fresh, keep it varied, throw a plant party for your biome—and let those microbes flourish & help you thrive.
