Cooking Tips:

1. Many of my recipes can be made oil-free, just swap the oil out for a little water when cooking.

2. You can use the same weight of chopped mushrooms or cooked lentils in place of a vegan “meat.”

3. Visualize the plate method for a meal: 50% vegetables and/or fruits; 25% grains and starches; and 25% protein.
