“If you don’t eat dairy, aren’t you missing out on calcium?”
This is a question you have likely heard before, if you avoid dairy.
Super Seed Smoothie Bowl
A smoothie is a typical breakfast for me. However sometimes I find that I need a small mid-morning snack to tie me over until lunch, after a breakfast smoothie. If you are finding a smoothie doesn’t quite tie you over until lunch, you definitely should try out this smoothie bowl – a smoothie with a hearty kick! The addition of nuts and seeds add fibre, fat and PROTEIN to your typical smoothie. The smoothie itself is thicker than your typical smoothie that you’d drink through a straw. It’s also vegan and gluten-free. Give it a try!
Protein Pancakes
Finally!! I’ve been on the hunt for high protein and convenient breakfast ideas that are different than my eggs or greek yogurt breakfast staples. I’ve heard about people incorporating cottage cheese into pancakes and wasn’t sure how I felt about it…however this was a perfect example of ‘don’t knock it til you try it!’ These are so easy to make – I add it to my Sunday Batch Cooking list.
Vegetarian BLT with Tempeh Bacon
Thinking about going meatless but afraid you’ll miss the smokey flavour of bacon? I present you with this alternative – tempeh bacon! The sweetly smokey flavour of this recipe will do a pretty good job with filling your void for bacon.
Vegy Miso Bowl
Takeout? No way! For about the same amount of time it would take to order and pick up take-out, why don’t you take 30 minutes out of your day to prepare this hearty and delicious vegy miso bowl for dinner tonight!
Chickpea Broccoli Burritos
My weeknight dinner staple! Minimal prep work involved and you can multi-task (worry-free) while the chickpea mixture cooks in the oven. The mixture of seasonings kick this simple ingredient meal up a notch! Enjoyed by herbivores and omnivores alike (tried, tested and true!) Inspired by the hilariously delicious Thug Kitchen cookbook.
