I love trying out new breakfast recipes! I have found so many new recipes in the past year and I love making these. They are so delicious and I love making food for my family. It is exciting to wow people with delicious recipes and create new dishes that people will love. 

One of my favorite things to make is pancakes in the morning. I put some syrup on and usually have a sie of fruit with it. For my pancake recipe, I take two packets of oatmeal and blend them in my ninja for a few seconds to make flour. Then I add a quarter cup of non dairy milk. I usually use almond milk or rice milk, but there are so many more you can try. If you want extra flavor you can use a flavor that is either vanilla or chocolate flavored. Then I add one banana and blend the mixture again. If it is not too think, you can let it sit for a few more minutes and when it gets think, put it in the pan and cook it. Then I top it with anything I want for the morning and if you want a chocolate syrup, it can quickly be made as well. I usually blend some cacao powder with maple syrup and water. Keep mixing and adding more of each ingredient until it is either as thick or thin as you like it. When you are done, drizzle it on your pancakes!

Another recipe I have just recently discovered are chickpea omelettes. I am very new to making these, so I am still playing around with the recipe. I start with one fourth of a cup of chickpea flour, which is sometimes also called garbanzo bean flour. I add just as much water as I do flour. Then you can add other seasonings for extra flavor. I usually add at least a tablespoon of nutritional yeast. Then I usually also add paprika, turmeric, and garlic. When I finish making it, I spread some hummus on it and I also put some veggies in. For my veggies this time around, I put in some tomato and some roasted bell pepper. This was absolutely amazing and I recommend trying this!!

I have also put some fresh fruit on my plate. Also, I have added some hash browns by the brand Dr. Pragers. I got the root veggie hash browns. Last time I did a breakfast article I was talking about the four potato hash browns. I enjoyed these so much that I wanted to try another variety. They have two other flavors that I also really want to try if I ever see them in store which are the sweet potato hash browns and the southwest hash browns. I have not yet seen those in store but I would get them in a heartbeat if I ever found them!

On the side you see a pink drink, which is full of flavor of course. What I did to make this is I blended up some strawberries with some vanilla flavored rice milk. This is a tasty drink that is so easy to make.

Sometimes it can be helpful to meal prep for the week, especially if you are typically really busy. Here are some recipes that may be good for you if you want to make some good meals for yourself and your loved ones. One meal you could do is take some of the Gardein Chicken tenders and bake those. You can put them over some rice or shredded veggies with some seasoning. I usually put a lemon on the side to add some extra flavor. Another thing that I typically put lemon on is some fishless fillets by Gardein. I had this with some cauliflower rice with lemon and garlic to flavor it. I also decided to have some zucchini on the side for extra vegetables. Another meal I love making wraps with some tortilla chips. For this above, you can stuff a tortilla with cucumber, tomato, hummus, and any other veggies that could be added. This is a great meal that can be healthy but filling. I like to have tortilla chips and salsa on the side as well. The last one that I want to sha

With all of the greener lifestyles that are being adapted all around the world there are tons of questions about exactly what veganism is, and exactly how it pertains to animals. For the vast majority of people it is extremely important to realize that you simply cannot make a sudden change like shifting from eating burgers every day to living a successful vegan lifestyle overnight. However, it is also possible to make some substantial changes that are on the path to becoming vegan and showing animals the respect that you believe they deserve. Many people in the quest to treat animals better are appalled to learn that many countries use some rather unconventional animals as food; this for many people can be action that triggers their desire to change to a vegan lifestyle, however for others it is simply another reason in a long list of reasons. Many countries such as China make usage of animals such as dog for their meals and many times people are unhappy to learn this, how

Healthy Snacks

Sometimes when you are in a pinch it can be a bit of a struggle to eat healthy. Sometimes you run out of produce when you are out and may have to settle for some packaged foods. There are some better options to reach for when you want to get a snack. There are definitely some good brands out there that I love getting for when I have a busy work day. Some of these snacks can be good for dipping in salsa or hummus, or any other dip. A lot of these snacks shown also have other flavors in that kind that are also really good to try out. I love all of the products I have tried by a brand called The Daily Crave so far. I love eating these as a snack with some hummus or you could find any other dip that may go well with this. I enjoy any sort of spread that can be eaten with this and you can also top it with some veggies as well. There are also some other really good flavors including tomato basil, barbeque, salt and vinegar, and sriracha. They have veggie, lentil, and quinoa ch
