President’s Choice Fresh Cut Washed Slaw
Thank you President’s Choice for making my life so much easier! Need some veggies in a hurry? No washing, no chopping, no fuss. Just open up a bag of PC’s Fresh Cut Washed Slaw, mix with your favourite dressing and “Bob’s your uncle”!
Do you know where that phrase came from? You do now.
Soy Free Vegenaise
I dare you to compare this Soy Free plant based mayonnaise by Earth Island to your regular mayonnaise. Ok, maybe if you just had the mayo on its own you would notice the difference, but not if it’s on something.
This vegan mayonnaise can be used in any recipe as a substitute for regular mayo. It is just as thick and creamy as regular mayo and it has a nice tang to it too.
My 2.5 year old loves it and asks for more “sauce”. He certainly comes by it naturally because his daddy loves his sauces!
Go on, try it. I double dog dare you!
Steak Fake
What first came to mind when you saw this mouthwatering dish? I bet it wasn’t “Oh, this must be vegan/vegetarian!” These manly mushrooms will satisfy even the biggest steak-lovers cravings. The mouthfeel is just like a piece of steak and the marinade puts it over the top. Trust me, if you want to add a vegan/vegetarian meal to your weekly menu rotation, this is the quickest and tastiest.
One important thing to note in this recipe is to buy organic mushrooms! Actually every ingredient in all of my recipes are intended to be organic, so, for the best results buy organic. Yes it is expensive, but can you put a price tag on your health?
I would give anything to go back in time and eat healthier if it meant not getting Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). I don’t mean to be preachy, just trust me on this one. Anyway, here’s what Mercola.com had to say about the benefits and cautions of eating mushrooms. (I can just see some of you smirking right now)
Simple Garden Salad
There is nothing better than tasting the fruits of your labour! I planted my first official garden this year (last year it was just herbs) and I am currently enjoying a simple yet delicious salad with mesculin lettuce right out of my garden.
Lemon Blueberry Coconut Cake
Here’s a quick, easy and healthy crowd pleaser! I’ve made this perfect summer cake a few times now and people just love it. Even those that aren’t on a restricted diet enjoy this cake! The key is getting the cake nice and moist and the glaze nice and creamy. Thanks to my Aunt Marian for the original recipe.
Coco Natura Coconut Aminos
If you have gluten or soy restrictions/allergies then this is a great soya sauce substitute. Coconut aminos can be used as a direct soya sauce substitute; it can be used in marinades, salad dressings, in soup bases, etc.
The brand I use is Coco Natura Coconut Marinade and buy it at Healthy Planet! Oh and btw, I highly recommend shopping at Healthy Planet because their prices are sooooooo much cheaper than the other health food stores that I frequent in Toronto.
Happy shopping!
