I’m often asked what I eat in a day as a vegan. Many people don’t know how to make meals not focused on meat. These zero waste recipes ensure you get the nutrition you need, and they taste delicious!
I really like to eat oatmeal in the winter because there are a thousand plant based recipes for oatmeal, it never gets old. My all-time favorite this time of year is apple cinnamon oatmeal
I really like to keep lunch simple, I prefer soups or salads, things that can easily be prepped in advance and stored in 16oz mason jars.This curried carrot and ginger soup is one of my all-time favorites!
Today’s whole food plant based recipe is less a recipe and more a simple toss-together: I’m going with bell peppers and hummus. It’s so quick and the combo gives you that extra boost you need between meals.
I wanted to keep dinner simple because it’s a big misconception that zero-waste meals have to take a long time. I’m making veggies and quinoa for dinner tonight, then I’ll make extra and save it for later.
It takes some getting used to a plant based diet! Some refer to a detox flu when making large lifestyle changes, but these are typically short lived and subside in a few weeks
