Myth Busting Meals

I made these delicious twice baked potatoes yesterday for breakfast out of odds and ends. I had a handful of leftover white beans, so I mashed those with the innards of the baked potatoes along with garlic, olive tapenade and some shredded spinach. I stuffed this mixture back into the potato skins, added some nooch and popped them back in the oven for about fifteen minutes. They were so tasty! I realized as I was eating them that some marinara sauce would have made them perfect, like pizza potatoes. But since I had no marinara, I topped them with some green dragon sauce. The addiction is real. I'm giving new meaning to "chasing the dragon"

There are so many misconceptions about a vegan diet, one of those being that it is expensive, and that vegans are an elite, snobby bunch. It drives me insane, and until the day I die I will be doing my best to disprove that. This meal is a great example of a super filling, healthy, inexpensive, and most important delicious vegan meal. A super simple lentil, potato and spinach curry with Jasmine rice. Since I cooked the lentils and potatoes in the morning, in the time it took to cook the rice this whole meal was ready. Any diet can be fussy and expensive, I've certainly seen some very pricey non vegan foods, and pricey grocery stores like Whole Foods sell a lot of non vegan foods. It didn't get the

nickname Whole Paycheck from vegan food only. To be honest I've had people question the cost of vegan food more than where I get my protein, and it always makes me cringe. I fear one of these days I'm going to lose it and hulk out.

Le sigh. I think I may forget how to make my bed one of these days. I just don't have the heart to make them move! Notice Joan, laying right where I do, using my pillow and everything!
