Healthy Eating Habits

Buddha bowls do sound amazing and are so customizable - a great way to get a variety of nutrients in one meal!

For plant-based dishes, it's hard to go past a good old vegetable stir fry with tofu and cashews. The options are endless with all the different veggies you can use, and same as buddha bowls, it's a great way to pack in lots of colours.

Grilling or roasting a variety of veggies like zucchini, eggplant, and capsicum is another go-to, especially in the summer. It's so easy to throw them on the barbecue while cooking some plant-based protein like tempeh or tofu sausages. Serve it with a side salad and you have a tasty, healthy meal ready in no time!

Another favourite in our house is a hearty, flavourful vegetable curry with lentils - packed with spices, sweet potatoes, carrots and loads of other good stuff. We usually make a big batch because it's even better as leftovers the next day.

What about you guys? Any tasty plant-based meals that you're loving at the moment?

Stir Fry is an all-time favorite for its quickness and adaptability, isn't it! I love how you added cashews for that extra crunchy texture.

I haven't explored tempeh or tofu sausages yet, but they sound like a great meaty addition to the meal. As for vegetable curry, I'm sold on the idea of packing different veggies and spices galore - looks like a flavor explosion in every bite!

I recently discovered the delights of a good ratatouille. It's so satisfying to let the tomatoes, eggplant, and peppers simmer in herbs and garlic until they're nicely softened. Serve it with some crusty whole grain bread, and you have a cozy, comforting meal.

Also, lentil soups are another go-to, especially on colder days. They're easy one-pot meals packed with plant protein and fibre that keep you full for hours. I like spicing mine up with curry powder or cumin for some extra zest.
 
Ooh, ratatouille is a wonderful comfort food! The aroma of herbs and garlic as it simmers away is so inviting.

I haven't ventured into tempeh/tofu sausages either, but they sound like a great addition to the stir fry. Also, a lentil soup with some spices sounds like a perfect meal for a chilly day - cozy, hearty, and healthy!

That's true; ratatouille really is aroma therapy in a pot 😊. The aromas of all these dishes you guys are mentioning are making me hungry!
