I was making lasagna the other day and realized I'd never shared this trick before. I roast whatever veggies need to be used up, toss them with Italian seasoning, and roast at 400 for about 30 minutes. This time it was broccoli, mushrooms, and carrots, but it changes every time based on what's in the fridge. Once they've cooled a little bit, I throw everything into the food processor. What comes out is a perfect veggie mince that folds right into lasagna, or honestly anywhere you want to sneak in some extra plants. Have you tried anything like this? I want to hear what veggie combos you've been working with. 👇

Because it saw the salad dressing!

I was busy working on so much business stuff today that I feel like I didn't check in properly to see how you're doing! 🫶🏼 Tonight I made some orange tofu with white basmati rice. Did you know basmati is lower on the glycemic index scale compared to other rice? Which means that it doesn't spike blood sugar as much as others. I also prepped chia pudding for the next couple days. I add Kite Hill Greek yogurt which is 17g protein per serving and is great for gut health. (You can find this recipe here: #Vanilla Berry Chia Pudding ) Let me know what you've been up to, what you're cooking, and if there's anything we can do to support you. Or just share something fun you're doing this week. ❤️

We cooked together live and the main ingredient was black beans. And both recipes were so unique AND delicious. In the class I talked about how I didn't grow up eating black beans regularly, so I still sometimes struggle with adding them into my diet. I have to be more intentional about it. Black beans are an amazing addition to a plant-based diet. They are packed with protein and fiber, they help keep you full, support steady energy, and great for your gut. We made a black bean dip and black bean energy bites and both were a hit. And just a little reminder: live cooking classes are a VIP perk! If you've been thinking about upgrading, this is the kind of thing waiting for you on the other side. Replay can be found HERE. What's your favorite way to use black beans? Tell me below!
