- Hey, munchies!
I'm Alyssia, if you're new,
and I'd like to welcome you to this channel.
One of my favorite things about this community
and one of the most important things to me with this channel
is that we want everyone to feel welcome here.
This is a safe space where we encourage people
to learn about different lifestyles
and find what works for them,
because everyone's different.
But I know that so many of you love
when we share vegan recipes.
I personally love experimenting
with vegan cooking and baking, and I'm not even vegan.
To celebrate this community,
we have compiled a brand new recipe eBook
with over 100 vegan recipes.
Say what?
I'm not kidding, and today I am sharing a breakfast,
lunch, and dinner from it.
Stay tuned for a discount code at the end.
We're making eggs for breakfast.
Excuse me?
It's a tofu scramble.
Combine nutritional yeast, turmeric for color,
garlic powder, paprika, onion powder,
and a pinch of salt and pep in a bowl.
Set aside.
In a sauce pan over medium heat,
add a bit of oil with some diced shalot and garlic.
Cook a few minutes, and then crumble some firm tofu
into the pan, breaking it up.
Add the seasonings to a bit of vegetable broth,
mix to combine, and then pour the mixture into the tofu
and coat completely,
cooking a few minutes until the tofu is heated through,
uniform in color, and the broth is reduced.
Wow!
Not only does this actually eerily resemble eggs
looking at it,
it's got a tasty, savory, and even cheesy flavor, too.
Plus, you're gettin' in that protein.

For lunch we're making a sweet potato
black bean quesadilla.
First, I sauté up some onions in oil until softened,
and then I can add some zucchini,
and cook for a few minutes.
We've gotta get those veggies in.
Next, I add the black beans and tossed it in a grate,
before removing from the heat.
I transfer that mixture to a bowl
with some mashed sweet potato,
and then add nutritional yeast,
garlic powder, and salt to season.
Spread the mixture onto a tortilla evenly,
and top it off with another one.
Heat a skillet with a bit of oil or sprayed,
and then add your quesadilla.
Cook through on each side.
I like to spray before flipping
to make sure it doesn't stick, and enjoy.
Man!
Sweet potato on black beans goes so well together.
We get savory and sweet,
and we get some nice varying textures
with the soft filling and crispy tortilla.
This one is sure to satisfy.
For dinner, not much is better than pasta, am I right?
No, but really, am I?
I mean, thumbs up if you like pasta.
For dinner, we've got a butternut squash and sage pasta.
Add oil to a pan with onion and garlic.
Once softened, add your cubed butternut squash.
Season with salt and pep, and cook for a few minutes.
Once it's a bit tender, add the sage and broth,
bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer.
Cook for about 20 minutes until super soft.
In the meantime, get your pasta of choice cooked.
Once the butternut mixture is slightly cooled,
add it to a blender with some almond milk,
blend into a delicious and creamy sauce.
Grab your spoon and eat this as a soup,
it's that freaking delicious,
or add it to your cooked pasta and toss to coat.
Holy moly, I mean it's hard to go wrong with pasta,
but there is nothing worse than feeling
like you have to compromise with vegan food.
This, my friends, is not a compromise.
Vegan or not, it's delicious.
Sweet, savory, satisfying, creamy,
and frankly, hard to quit eating.
It's like a reminder of the holidays
that's perfect for any time of year.
I hope you enjoy these recipes.
