The garlic sauce for this grain bowl is super creamy and it makes quite a bit so if you like your bowls super saucy then you’ll have plenty. If you prefer your bowls on the drier side, then save some sauce for later in the week. This bowl has all of the elements of a healthy meal — fiber, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and the perfect balance of plant-based fat, protein, and carbohydrate to keep you satisfied and nourished.

At first sight, the color of this dish might stand out to you most, but it’s the nutrition that will have a lasting impact on your health. Phytonutrients from the black beans, corn, and tomato; vitamin C from the red bell pepper; and, prebiotics from the onion and garlic will keep you nutritionally powered, healthy, and whole.

This walnut parmesan cheese is made with walnuts and sunflower seeds, both of which are packed with healthy fats, vitamin E, and magnesium, as well as plant-based protein. Nutritional yeast gives it a “cheesy” flavor the nuts and seeds give it the moist parmesan texture. Sprinkle it on soups, salads, veggies, pasta, and grain bowls.

This homemade strawberry chia spread will satisfy your tastebuds with the natural sweetness of strawberries and satisfy your brain with its high omega-3 content.

How did you make that? How did you get it to taste like real deviled eggs? Is that magic? These are just a few of the questions you’ll hear from friends and family. Unlike traditional deviled eggs that use the egg yolk, which contains cholesterol and saturated fat, these are made with organic tofu, which doesn’t have either. Don’t forget to hide a few away in the fridge for yourself so they don’t all disappear!

The beauty of Herbed Cashew Cheese is that you can use whichever herbs you have on hand or prefer to use based on your flavor preferences. A few delicious and nutrition combinations include parsley and oregano, rosemary and thyme or cilantro and dill. You could also split the cashew cream base in half and create two different herbed cheeses — just for fun!

Using sunflower seeds to make a creamy base is a great way to get vitamin E, selenium, plant-based protein, and fiber in a simple spread. Adding curry powder (a combination of spices that may include cumin, turmeric, coriander, ginger, and garlic) not only makes for a flavorful blend, but they each pack their own powerful nutritional punch. Soak the seeds ahead of time to whip this up in a flash!

Have you thought about the magic of plants?
