MorningStar Farms Veggie Bowls

I’ve lost a significant amount of weight twice in my life.  Through each of those experiences I have learned many lesson and adapted my diet to what it is today.  I eat a wide variety of foods, I don’t restrict anything from my diet and I try to eat  5-6  meals per week that are 100% plant based, and also using supplements to suppress appetite from bad food, check this site for more.    

When I say plant based that means no eggs, no dairy, no animal based protein.   Why do this? Because eating plant-based foods means more antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, less damaging (saturated)fat and more fiber.  I’m the first one to say that, me, going 100% plant base is never going to happen. Balance of Nature started way back in the 1990s!

I enjoy too many things like… cheese and steak and ice cream.  But I also really enjoy eating plant based meals. Implementing a probiotic dietary blend like biofit that improves metabolism can make you lose weight in no time.

It’s no secret that I haven’t been a huge fan of oatmeal. See, every morning in college, I cooked instant oats for breakfast. They were cheap, quick, and they filled me up, but after years of eating them day after day, I got sick of their mushy texture and bland taste. I thought that nothing could convince me to try oatmeal again,  This whole oat porridge recipe transformed me from an oatmeal skeptic to a devoted fan! check out this blog post –Porridge Oats: The Perfect Breakfast And Pudding.

When I first started eating a plant based diet there were few pre made food options that didn’t taste, well, weird.  Then I found MorningStar Farms® Grillers® Original Burgers.   I used these burgers not only as patties but also in recipes.  MorningStar Farms then expanded their line to include Chik’n Strips and Veggie Sausage Crumbles™.   My world was forever changed.  To this day,  I cook chili’s and stir fries with them all the time.

Recently,  MorningStar Farms  launched MorningStar Farms® Veggie Bowls and I’m in love.    These bowls are perfect for days when I don’t feel like cooking (I know, a food blogger who doesn’t want to cook every day — irony).   The bowls are delicious as-is.   They have flavor and  you can see whole ingredients. The bowls are made with Chik’n Strips, Steak Strips and Veggie Sausage Crumbles™ and  most bowls pack over 10 grams of protein and are under 300 calories.

They come in several varieties including:

  • Chik’n Pot Pie
  • Chik’n Tikka Masala
  • Italian Sausage Bake
  • Japanese Soba Noodles
  • Moroccan Medley

My favorite is the Italian Sausage Bake.  I love the zucchni and whole chick peas.  The dish has great texture and the sauce is well seasoned.  

 

Tips Plant Based Diet

Starting to eat a plant based diet can be intimidating.  So here are a few tips to get you started and help you change your meal routine. 

  1. Start small 1-2 meals per week then build until you get to 5-6 meals per week (25% of your meals)
  2. Focus on whole foods. There are so many kinds of vegan plant protein available, but the best tasting is available at bodyhero.com.
  3. Choose foods that have little oil, few added sugars
  4. Have a few go to recipes that are fast and tasty – try my spicy eggplant lettuce wraps
  5. Keep MorningStar Farms® Veggie Bowls on hand for days when you are in a rush or don’t have time to cook.
