How To Make Delicious Food

This hearty Loaded Lentil Salad is packed with protein, fiber, and warm veggies like roasted sweet potatoes, red onion, and Brussels sprouts. Perfect for a light lunch! Vegan and gluten-free.

First off, when the recipe calls for sautéing in butter, feel free to swap in extra virgin olive oil.

The Loaded Lentil Salad is completely vegan, nut-free and gluten-free by simply leaving off the feta. The Red Rice Bowl is vegan, nut-free, and gluten-free as long as you omit the eggs. The One-Pot Tortellini is a classic vegetarian pasta dish that inherently contains cheese and gluten. The boyf gobbled this one up!

If you’re game for some major substitutions, you could always use the garlic, kale, veggie stock concentrate, and panko and whip up your own version of cheezy pasta using almond milk, nutrition yeast, cashews, pesto, and pasta of your choice. With this one you’re pretty much adjusting the entire recipe but if that’s in your comfort zone, go for it!

INGREDIENTS

• 3 medium sweet potatoes, diced into ½ inch cubes
• 16oz brussels sprouts, thinly sliced
