I can not believe that Thanksgiving is just two weeks away! 😬 I never feel ready for this time of year; I want to do and experience all the magic— especially with a bright-eyed toddler. 💫 If you’re planning your menu, may I suggest this vegan sausage stuffing? 🙌 It’s got rave reviews, a five-star rating and my family personally thinks it’s the absolute best. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Recipe on delishknowledge.com 👆 —————————————————————————- #delishknowledge #thanksgiving #veganthanksgiving #veganthanksgivingrecipes #plantbasedthanksgiving #plantbaseddinner #plantbasedrecipes #tempeh #thanksgivingdinner

Snickerdoodle hummus! 🙌 Who says hummus has to be savory? 🤔 This dessert hummus is low-sugar and packed with both plant-based protein & fiber. 👏 V loves this one with sliced apples, while I like the sweet & salty combo of pretzels. 🥨🍎 Recipe below! #AD ——————————————————————————- 1️⃣ Place in the base of a food processor 👉 1 (15.5oz) can @swbeans Garbanzos, drained and rinsed, 1/4 cup almond butter, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1–2 tablespoons 100% maple syrup, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 2️⃣ Process until smooth and creamy, then place in a bowl and sprinkle with more cinnamon! 👌 ——————————————————————————- #delishknowledge #hummus #hummusrecipe #hummuslover #healthysnacks #snack #snacks #kidfriendlysnacks #beans

Still pregnant, still predominantly plant-based. 🌱 I recently had another RD tell me that it was very hard to be plant-based without adding in protein powders— especially when pregnant. 🤨 ——————————————————————————- That is incorrect, but I also understand that even dietitians don’t keep up with all areas of research (👉 please don’t ask me about renal diets, I haven’t got a clue. 😉) I remember learning about “combining plant proteins” in college, only to learn later that this isn’t necessary. 👋 The truth is that ALL plants contain ALL amino acids, though some amino acids are more limiting. Calling plant-based proteins incomplete is like calling milk an ‘incomplete’ source of calcium because it takes more than one glass to meet your daily needs. 🥛 🥛 🥛 👉 That means technically you could get all of your essential amino acids by eating nothing but broccoli, but why would you? A diverse plant-based diet is not only healthy for all stages of the lifecycle, it’s also possible to do so without any added protein powder. This is also the official position of the Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics. 🍎 ——————————————————————————- The one caveat I will say is that lysine tends to be more limiting in a plant-based diet, which is why I recommend eating a serving of pulses (beans/lentils) or soy every day. Pulses and soy are excellent sources of lysine, so eat up. 😋 ——————————————————————————- #delishknowledge #rdchat #rdn #dietitiansofinstagram #dietitian #dietitians #dietitiansofig #plantbased #plantbasedpregnancy #nutritionist #nutrition #plantbasedmom

Chili Cookoff! 🙌 We still don’t have a kitchen, but when @beejlenz asked me to enter mine in his office competition, I couldn’t say no. 😉 It might not have been the winner with his colleagues, but it’s the best damn chili in our house. 🌶 Recipe below 👇 —————————————————————————- 1️⃣ Sauté 1 onion, 1 bell pepper, 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 cup chopped celery in 2T olive oil until very, very soft. Like 15 minutes. 2️⃣ Stir in 2 chopped garlic cloves, 2T chili powder, 1T cumin, 2t smoked paprika, 1t oregano and a very small pinch cinnamon. 3️⃣ Add in 2 cans fire roasted tomatoes, 2 drained cans pinto beans, 2 drained cans black beans and 2 1/2 cups broth. Simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. 4️⃣ Remove ~ 2 cups of the chili and quick purée in a blender/food processor, then add back to the chili with 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro and a splash of red wine vinegar. (Always, always, always add a little acid to your soups/stews. Makes a difference!) 👌 —————————————————————————- #delishknowledge #chili #chilicookoff #veganchili #vegetarianchili #plantbased #plantbaseddiet #healthyeats #inmykitchen #healthyfood #healthyfoodrecipes

Slow Cooker Bean Soup! 🙌 Made ever better with a side of crusty sourdough from @loafersstl and cozy slippers. 👌 I’m sharing how to make this simple soup in my stories today and below. 👇 If you’re looking for a yummy way to eat more beans, this 👏 is 👏it. ————————————————————————— 1️⃣ Sauté 1 cup each onion, carrot, celery. Add in 1 tsp. each dried parsley, thyme & rosemary plus 3-4 chopped garlic cloves. Deglaze with a heavy splash of balsamic vinegar. 2️⃣ Add in 2 cans fire-roasted tomatoes with juice, 2 cans drained white beans, 1 can drained kidney beans and 2-3 cups vegetable broth. You might need to add salt depending on what kind of beans/broth you use. 3️⃣ Cook on high in your slow cooker for 4 hours or on low for 7. Stir in ~ 2 cups chopped frozen spinach and warm through. Stir in another splash of balsamic or red wine vinegar before serving! ————————————————————————— #delishknowledge #wfpb #plantbased #wholefoodsplantbased #plantbasedsoup #plantbaseddinner #souprecipe #soupseason #slowcookerrecipes #slowcooker #slowcookermeals #vegetarians #vegetariansofig

Snickers Milkshake! 🙌 It might not be milkshake weather, but that doesn’t stop BL for asking for this one almost every weekend. 🙋‍♂️So creamy and thick, you’d never guess it was dairy-free and naturally sweetened. 👏🍫 ————————————————————————— Place 1 frozen banana, cut into large chunks, 3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, 3 pitted dates, 2 tbsp. peanut butter, 1/8 tsp. vanilla extract and 1 1/2 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder in the base of a blender. Purée until thick and creamy, adding a splash of more almond milk as needed. 🍌 😋 ————————————————————————— #delishknowledge #milkshake #dessert #dairyfree #dairyfreerecipes #plantbased #wholefoodsplantbased #plantbaseddiet #plantbasedmom #healthyfood #healthyrecipes #snack #snacktime #nodairy #chocolate
