SQUASHED through another #MeatlessMonday… can you guess how many veggies are in this?  

I’ll give you a hint.. a lot more than any other Mac and Cheese you’ve ever had.

BN Squash (Sauce)

Cauliflower (Pasta)

Broccoli (Mixed in)

Chickpeas (Chip crumbles)

Oh and did I mention I don’t even have an immersion blender? 

It’s meals like this that remind me how much I friggen love plant-based eating.  

. 

You DO NOT have to be Vegan- I’m not!

. 

Adding non-plant based foods into a plant based meal is still ON POINT- aka all my meals

. 

No plant based doesn’t mean just Veggies- Grains, Legumes, Nuts, Fruits etc.- hello do you see all my healthified desserts?

. 

Yes you WILL get in plenty of protein, again add in what you like!

. 

Eating plant based is NOT expensive- processed foods are WAY more expensive 

. 

You WONT be hungry, because you can EAT MORE – I’m all about that volume life

. 

Those are just a few assumptions I hear, if you have any others in question seriously send my way! I love sharing more about the benefits and glory to how I fill up your IG feed.
