I have a friend who makes some dope t-shirts who invited me to a night market his business was attending, so husband and I went out to support. There was SOOO much cool stuff, but the reason for this post…the vegan food.
So, you all know, I briefly told you about the benefits of plant-based diets before. There isn’t a single diet modification with as much evidence behind it when it comes to cardiovascular benefit and cancer prevention, and it is also excellent for weight control, preventing and reversing insulin resistance and metabolic disease, and most of my patients who suffer from inflammatory disorders generally feel better if they go plant-based.
Anyway, I met this lovely woman who apparently is already quite well-known on the vegan scene in Houston, the chef behind Tay’s Vegan Eats!. I’m super excited, though, because I got a copy of her cookbook, and I now have a resource for my patients who don’t believe plant-based can be flavorful and fun! Honestly, I can’t wait to try some of her stuff in my kitchen–one of my biggest barriers to trying vegan myself is not having a resource of go-to recipes.
My husband tried the mac and cheez and liked it—and guys—this man calls himself a carnivore (though I did correct him and tell him he was an omnivore—though not a very good one, cuz he’s a little like a toddler when it comes to veggies). I wish I’d gotten a pic of him eating it—so bad at that part. He was being stingy with it!
Anywho…check out her pages! Her food is delish!
Nice! Plant-based diets sound like they have a host of health benefits. Worth a try. At least incorporating more vegetables and less red meats would probably make a huge difference for our family.
