Getting back into one of my favorite lunches: quick air fryer potato hash! 🥔 (#wfpb) I use about 2-3 medium-large potatoes (doesn’t have to be purple ones), a small onion, & a small crown of broccoli, and have it with a half avocado 🥑 It also goes great with seitan or vegan sausage added in if you’re feeling fancy!

PSA: vegan omega 3 can actually be BETTER than fish-based. Despite what all the mainstream “nutrition” media + your anti-vegan friends who read those articles tell you, lol 😅 I found a study that looked at blood levels of omega 3 in 5000 vegans, vegetarians, fish-eaters, and meat-eaters, and how much omega 3 they actually ate, and go over it in my latest video 🐟

I totally dropped the ball by not posting this vegan Irish themed calzone recipe on St Patrick’s day, because it was inspired by Irish boxties… and I’m mostly Irish... 🤣 it’s filled with mashed potatoes, beef, and cheese, and is surprisingly healthy for how comforting and rich it is 🤤 Recipe link in bio (and story)! ☝🏻

PSA: Eating more chocolate can make you LOSE weight 🍫 I found a bunch of scientific studies showing that literally just adding chocolate to people’s diets made them lose weight and body fat percentage. (It depends on the type & dose of chocolate, and how long you eat it for.) I go over it all in my new video—link in bio/story! 📹

Healthy baked bean + mac & cheese bowls 🧀 Just posted the recipe for my current southern-inspired dinner obsession! I feel like I’ve had an evolution with baked beans—when I first got really into making them a couple of months ago, I randomly put them on baked potatoes and topped them with sautéed kale (also so good) 🥔 And then that progressed to having them over macaroni with my healthy whole food plant based cheese sauce 😍 and my junk-food-loving husband is as obsessed with this as takeout, so it’s a winner in our house 😉 Recipe link in bio (and story)!

I used to be afraid of mochas 🤦‍♀️ just because I’d crave them every day, and they were “empty calories”.
