One Pot Vegetable Pasta

Image
  Veggie pasta made in one pot! Everything should be placed into a pot, and you are done! full of vegetables like peas, spinach, and mushrooms. I'm prepared to keep my promises. For the rest of the month, I'll be providing you with tasty, nutritious evening meals that are also easy to prepare. Weeknight dinners are one of my New Year, New You resolutions, as I mentioned last week. You know, genuinely having a meal at a table while conversing with BL about our day while consuming wholesome, filling cuisine. The exact opposite of what occurs 80% of the time, when we wolf down cold leftovers because we are either 1) too lazy to reheat them on the stove, or 2) painfully hungry. Then, before going to night, we withdraw to our personal laptops to work in comparatively silence. It's not a pleasant picture, but the reality is what it is. If we're being completely honest, I'm willing to guess that you are also familiar with this circumstance. Weeknight dinners frequently ge...

Vegan Baked Oatmeal with Fresh Berries

Image
 A recipe for baked vegan oatmeal with delicious berries. The ideal nutritious breakfast that is filling and fantastic for serving large groups! This version is both gluten-free and vegan. Did I ever tell you about the time I consumed so much oatmeal in high school that I didn't consume any until almost 8 years later, after graduate school? It is real. From ninth through the eleventh school, I consumed one or two packets of quick oatmeal every day, and even now, I find the thought of instant oatmeal repulsive. Thankfully, cooked oatmeal does not make me feel the same way. If you've never tried baked oatmeal, then this is the recipe you've been waiting for. It's one of the few ways I'll eat oatmeal. Traditional oatmeal may be tasteless, gloppy, and bland. Oatmeal that has been baked is flavorful, sweet, and soft but chewy. I can't wait for you to try it too; it's my favorite (and almost always the only) way to eat oatmeal. Ingredients for baked vegan oats Th...

Fluffy Vegan Pancakes with Blueberries

Image
These fluffy vegan pancakes make me so happy to share them with you! For what feels like years, I've been trying to master vegan pancakes, and I think I've finally figured it out. Over the years, I'm fairly confident I've tried at least a dozen different vegan pancakes, but I've never found what I'm searching for. Instead of rigid and gummy pancakes, I like ones that are light and fluffy. It takes a little imagination to make pancakes rise when heated on a griddle without using typical liveners like eggs. Because the combination of baking powder and baking soda produces extremely light and fluffy pancakes, I use both of them. The second trick is to swap out other non-dairy milk like almond, soy, or coconut for oat milk. Why is oat milk? Oat milk will brown better than almond or soy milk because it has more carbs, as I've already stated in other postings. Vegan pancakes frequently have a light tint, but oat milk makes the ideal golden brown cake. Make your ow...

Vegan Eggs Benedict with Asparagus

Image
I prepared eggs benedict for you! If I do say so myself, the hollandaise sauce is considerably better without the eggs.  One of my favorite breakfast dishes is eggs benedict, and because Mother's Day (and my birthday!) are coming up, I knew I wanted to make a plant-based version of it at home that would be just as good as anything I could get at a restaurant.   There are a few steps in this recipe using different ingredients, but none of them are challenging or take a lot of time. The tofu slabs will first be marinated in a turmeric-black salt marinade that gives it an authentic egg flavor. If you're going to make tofu scrambles and other dishes like this frequently, you'll probably need to order black salt online, but it's definitely worth it. Any Benedict must have hollandaise sauce, but, to be really honest, I typically find it to be overly rich. Since too much hollandaise may completely dominate a dish, I frequently request it on the side so that I can add only the ...

Instant Pot Oatmeal

Image
 The best instant pot oatmeal dish ever—wonderful it's incredibly creamy ! You must try this steel-cut oatmeal dish if you like oats. I've finally figured out how to enjoy oatmeal. Regular readers will be aware that while I love baked oatmeal and overnight oats, I'm not normally a fan of plain oatmeal. That's probably because I consumed what feels like enough instant oatmeal for a lifetime while I was in high school—at least one pack every day. Since many years ago, the only ways I've eaten oats have been cooked or cold as overnight oats. But after that, we renovated our kitchen. Three months of having just my Instant Pot, a microwave, and a toaster. There is a limit to how many frozen waffles or bowls of cereal one can eat before feeling the need for a change. WOW. I used the Instant Pot and added a few ingredients. Completely blown away. I would not have spent so much time by avoiding them for so long if I had known that ordinary oatmeal could taste this deliciou...

Raw Food Diet

 Raw food consumption is natural. All that is new and alive is what our bodies thrive on. It is inevitable that switching to a raw food diet or upping your raw food intake will make you feel better. Raw food diets consist of a range of fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, cereals, dried fruit, fresh juices, and purified water. They are centered on unprocessed and uncooked plant foods, preferably organic. Why Eat Raw Food? The raw food diet, which is essentially a vegetarian one, encourages consuming "live" foods. The greatest quantity of fiber found in unprocessed produce is present in living meals and liquids. These meals are often lower in calories than the typical diet and are simple to metabolize. Food loses nutritious value when heated above 116°F because the enzymes that help in digestion and absorption are destroyed. Benefits of Eating Raw Food Numerous health advantages can be obtained from a diet that contains at least 75% raw foods, including higher energy, bet...

You Say Tomato – I Say Superfood

 The tomato has been referred to by a variety of names throughout history, including Peruvian apple, love apple, and even—at least among Americans—vegetable. But today, this delicious fruit is quickly gaining a reputation as a superfood!  Although this nutrition superhero can't leap big buildings in a single bound, she can still accomplish some pretty incredible feats. For instance, according to some studies, eating tomatoes may help lower your risk of developing prostate cancer as well as breast, lung, and stomach cancer.  Additionally, according to a 2003 article in The Herald Sun, the yellow liquid surrounding the seeds may prevent blood cells from congealing, which can occasionally result in heart attacks and strokes. What exactly makes this tiny red berry so remarkable? Lycopene. Okay, so lycopene may not seem particularly enticing, but this potent antioxidant is the component of tomatoes that not only gives them their distinctive red color but also gives them the ab...

What Causes Us To Age?

 Can we slow down the aging process, can we live longer, and if so, how? Science has produced some amazing breakthroughs in this area of human interest. It's a really complex topic that would be out of place in this post. But we can provide you with some strong advice to assist slow down aging and improving your chances of living a longer, healthier life. How is your biological "age" determined?  From an early age, our parents instill in us the notion that we will live to a particular age. We live with the ingrained belief that we have a predetermined lifetime of between 60 and 90 years.  But because we are all so unique, there is no set rate at which a person should age gracefully. Some people have an ageless, wrinkle-free appearance and demeanor. Others, less fortunate, appear older than their actual age.  The biological age of our body is a mirror of our mental, emotional, and spiritual development over time. Our body can last up to 125 years in the ideal env...
