Beyond Meat Sliders
Look no further for super simple yet delicious meal! I have Beyond Meat Sliders to share with you. I feel like a broken record when I talk about plant-based recipes…. they aren’t all the bad, they do have flavor, they have good texture, blah blah blah. Basically, I’m saying don’t knock it until you try it! These sliders were incredibly flavorful – like more flavorful than a traditional beef patty, plus they were tender, juicy, and seasoned perfectly. The recipe can be found here. Start by making the caramelized onions. Slice the onions into strips. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, add the onions and cook for about 10 minutes or until soft and translucent. Season with sugar and salt and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for about 30 minutes or until the onions start to turn brown and caramelize, … Continue reading

Beyond Meat Meatballs with Marinara
These are my new favorite meatballs! So easy to make and incredibly tasty! I have a “don’t knock it until you try it” mentality when it comes to plant-based food. A lot of it sounds weird but ends up being a winner in my house, so if you are willing to try something new, please give these meatballs a try. They are tender and juicy, packed with flavor, and come together in about 30 minutes. You can use either the Impossible or Beyond Meat brand, I’m just partial to Beyond Meat. They do have slightly different textures and tastes but when you combine them with the rest of the ingredients you probably won’t tell a difference. The recipe can be found here. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Start by combining the breadcrumbs and almond milk in a small bowl then … Continue reading

Beyond Meat Patty Melt
Every so often, we like to prepare meals with Beyond Meat. I know it’s not for everyone and some aren’t willing to try it but if you are curious, I highly recommend eating it at least once. Our latest creation is a Beyond Meat Patty Melt. It was amazing! Beyond Meat has a similar texture to ground meat but I think it’s a bit moister and juicier. I also think it has a slightly nutty flavor. In this case you will know you aren’t eating meat but if you are making other dishes, Tacos or Sloppy Joe’s for example, you won’t taste a difference after adding all the spices and sauces. The “patty” in this recipe is seasoned Beyond Meat. You will get the full texture and taste of the product. Personally, I think it’s great. Andrew even liked it! The recipe can be found here. Start by dividing the … Continue reading

Chickpea Bowls (Vegan)
Sometimes I like to cook with chickpeas. I know they aren’t for everyone, but they are a wonderful meat substitute in many recipes. Chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, are beige in color, pea shaped, and part of the legume family. They are very versatile and packed with protein. Chickpea Bowls are wonderful. They are easy to prepare, come together in 20 minutes or less, and can easily be customized with the toppings of your choice. Wonderful weeknight recipes that are healthy and light but will still fill you up. The 2 recipes I want to share with you today are as follows: VEGAN ORANGE CHICKPEAS are sweet and tangy with a lovely citrusy flavor, similar to orange chicken from a Chinese restaurant. VEGAN SESAME CHICKPEAS are sweet and have a slightly roasted flavor with a sticky sauce, similar to sesame chicken from a Chinese restaurant. Both recipes are vegan. Feel free to substitute ingredients or add toppings that are … Continue reading

Vegan Beyond Meat Thai Lettuce Wraps
Vegan Beyond Meat Thai Lettuce Wraps are a great recipe when you are looking for something healthy or are trying to “eat clean”. They are simple to make, scrumptious, and packed with flavor. I like how customizable they are because you can add any toppings of your choosing when creating your lettuce wraps. If you are unfamiliar with lettuce wraps, think of them as a taco but with a lettuce leaf instead of a tortilla or taco shell. The recipe can be found here. Start by preparing the Beyond Meat. I personally like to use Beyond Meat in a lot of recipes and think it fits well with the flavors in this recipe. It also makes this recipe vegan if you follow a vegan lifestyle. If you don’t, feel free to substitute the Beyond Meat with ground chicken, ground turkey, or ground beef. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Beyond Meat, onion, and garlic. Cook for about … Continue reading

Vegan Beyond Meat Unstuffed Pepper Bowls is an easy to make, comfort food type meal, that is 100% vegan. It’s bright, colorful, and has all the flavors you love from a classic stuffed pepper recipe.

In its raw form, it has the texture of ground beef. In its cooked form, it has a similar texture to ground meat, has a slightly nutty flavor, and is juicy (not like other vegetarian or vegan meats that are bland and dry).

VEGAN Grilled Jalapeno Poppers
If you follow my blog, you are probably aware that I recently wrote a post about Grilled Jalapeno Poppers. They are a great appetizer, a fun dish for a BBQ or cookout, and are full of flavor and spice! I recently made a vegan version of the same grilled jalapeno popper recipe and want to share it with you today. The recipe can be found here. Jalapeno Poppers are essentially hollowed out jalapenos that are stuffed with cheese (non-dairy cheese in this case) and spices, are frequently breaded (we are skipping this step), and either fried, baked, or grilled to perfection. They are a guaranteed crowd pleaser! To make my Vegan Grilled Jalapeno Poppers, you must first make Vegan Cream Cheese. You can buy plain vegan cream cheese from your local grocery store or make your own. I prefer to make homemade vegan cream cheese. For the most part, it … Continue reading

Beyond Beef Stuffed Bell Peppers (Vegan)
Beyond Beef Stuffed Bell Peppers are a bright and colorful dish complete with roasted peppers, rice, veggies, and a plant-based protein. Stuffed peppers are traditionally made with ground beef but a few simple substitutes and voila, you have yourself a vegan meal. You can use any color bell pepper (use a variety of colors for a nice plating presentation) or even substitute the Beyond Beef with another plant-based protein product. Anything goes while you are creating this meal because these peppers are a meal in itself! The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F. Set aside an 8×8 baking dish (if using 4 bell peppers) or a 9×13 baking dish (if using 6 bell peppers). Use a knife to remove the tops of the bell peppers. Don’t remove too much of the top because you want to fill as much of the pepper … Continue reading
