Favorite plant based meal inspiration

Tell me what you’ve got! I need some inspiration and new meal ideas. I am mainly focusing on WFPB, with the addition of olive oil/avocado oil, and some other fats.

I would suggest checking out rainbowplantlife.com. Her red lentil curry is awesome!  Let me look at where some of my other recipes came from and I will check back in.

 

ETA elavegan.com, forksoverknives.com, google John McDougall recipes, and Joel Furman recipes.

It's so basic, but I really enjoy  a big, colorful salad. When I need to add protein, it's either steak or chicken, but you could add one that suits you.

 

Stuffed Portabella Caps are another favorite, if you are allowed cheese.  Sorry, I'm not too educated on a plant based diet.

I get inspiration from vegan YouTube videos. Many are labeled “What I eat in a day”.

Re: Favorite plant based meal inspiration

My favorite plant based meal that I have for dinner almost every night and love is something I put together one night when I was just searching for a new meal to help with weight loss and to control my Type 2 diabetes. It's been so successful that I am now off medication. I keep a big bowl of these veggies in my fridge and just throw them in a skillet with olive oil, Mrs Dash and pepper, cook until veggies are tender and well done. You can add sliced turkey sausage or jumbo cooked and deveined shrimp if you want or whatever meat you want if you want.  Hope you enjoy

 

Sliced Zuchinni

Sliced yellow squash

sliced onion
