    • Easy Meal Prep for the...
    My Plantain lasagna was inspired by the following recipe:
    minimalistbaker.com/lentil-eg...
    I simply substituted eggplant for baked plantains.
    For the ricotta I added in about 3 cloves of garlic to the initial recipe.
    To make the lentil sauce I started by sautéing eggplants and onions then I followed the recipe.

    "Food is self care." You are so right! It can also be self-harm, when you eat the Standard American Diet! So let's all choose self CARE over self HARM!!! Thank you for your example!

    You and Arnold encourage me and my husband so much. We're mid to late 30s but havent started having children yet. We've started a somewhat consistent vegan diet but the weekends we may have fish or chicken. Working on that. I just love the freshness and natural nature of your meals. Thanks for sharing your life!!

      Keep up the good work!!
      It took me about a month and a half to go completely Vegan 4.5 years ago. I gave up one animal product at the time.
      I ate alot of transition foods which helped alot. Going whole foods, plant based Vegan was the next step and then High Raw.
      Everything is a transition.
      And you're right, consistency is the key, not perfection.
      Wishing you all the best 😁

    Liam is ADORABLE! It is inspiring to see you care for your family with such healthy food. I have been plant based for a couple of years. My teens now have healthy palates because they are used to eating primarily plants. My daughter and I even work at a juice bar together. In my opinion, the greatest lesson a mom can teach her children is that of self-care. ❤️
