Vegan Eats
K is for Kale.
It is no secret that kale has become extremely popular in recent years as one of the most nutritionally beneficial vegetables. I would go as far to say that kale is even a superfood. Kale is inexpensive, can be cooked or eaten raw.
J is for Juice.
I don’t mean the juice you buy at a store in a bottle with way too much added sugar. I mean the juice you buy in a plastic cup with a straw that is made from only fresh fruits and/or veggies that have been put through a juicer. You may think you have to go to a juice bar for this nutritional and delicious beverage, but in truth, lots of cafes are making this available now.
I is for Indian Food.
There are a few kinds of food that have limitless vegan options such as Mexican food or Thai food. I absolutely love Indian food and find that they have a huge selection of vegan food. Most of the time they already have a specific vegan menu with appetizers, curries and even desserts.
H is for Hummus.
Hummus is a very healthy snack made from chickpeas and tahini, which is blended sesame seeds. You can eat it as a dip with vegetables, spread it on a wrap, or you can put it in a mock tuna salad to replace mayo.
G is for Greens.
Any fruit or vegetable that is green is extremely healthy for you. Most green fruits and veggies are also very low in acidity. Some greens you need to be eating are kale, spinach, lime, bell pepper and celery.
F is for Flax Seed.
There is a plethora of things you can do with flax seed, but the most impressive thing is the flax egg. When baking, to substitute one egg, mix 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed with 3 tablespoons of warm water.
E is for Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
There are so many oils to choose from, but you want to pick one that is nutritionally sound. Go for extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil.
