I'm not vegan. I've never been vegan. I have been vegetarian my whole life. I don't need you to tell me how I can change stuff on the menu to make it vegan. I don't need you to point out every vegan option you see, especially when you don't know what you're going to eat yet. I don't need you to ask for a vegan menu for me, I don't want one. I REALLY don't need you to point out the "Beyond" meat option on the menu, it will make me sick because it tastes like meat.

I understand that this is new and different to you but it's my every day. I know that I can ask for salad without meat on it. I know how to ask what options are available for me or request modifications to an item. I've been doing it since I could order for myself. You even watched me pull up the menu when we were still at home. I'm a full grown adult I can manage my dietary needs myself.

Brief Explanation of Veganism

Veganism is a lifestyle that seeks to exclude all forms of animal exploitation and cruelty, including in the food we eat, the products we use, and the entertainment we consume. Vegans follow a plant-based diet that excludes all animal products, such as meat, dairy, eggs, and honey, and instead relies on fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds for nourishment. This way of life is driven by ethical, environmental, and health concerns, and aims to promote a more compassionate and sustainable world.

Coconut Milk Smoothie with Banana

A delicious, creamy, and nutritious drink.

Smoothies are a quick way to get some protein into your diet first thing in the morning. They're also an excellent source of vitamins A, B5, C, D & E as well as calcium & iron.

Eating to lower A1C, maintain a healthy weight, and have glowing skin on a vegan diet

Fats. I put that on everything!

Lowering your A1C is much easier when you focus on protein, fiber, and mono- and polyunsaturated fats. Opt preferably for expeller/mechanically pressed, UNREFINED oils and fats. You want to avoid oxidative damage, and refining fats increases their oxidative properties, as well as reduces their health benefits.

Nuts are super nutrient dense, and have mostly fat (but cashews are the highest carb/most hydrated nut, as evidenced by their very creamy texture). Nuts are also excellent sources of protein, fiber, and micronutrients.

In studies, people who include nuts in their diets have lower BMIs. Caveat: fats have the most calories per serving. As long as you don't exceed your caloric requirements, go nuts on nuts and put fat in foods!

My Favorite Proteins:

🌱Almonds

🌱Cashews

🌱Mushrooms (Favorite shroom recipe: thinly chopped portobellos. Sauté garlic in a bit of avocado and a generous amount of toasted sesame oil. You want the avocado oil as it helps prevent sticking to the pan. Once the oil gets some browning of the garlic, add in minced ginger. You may need to add more avocado oil and toasted sesame oil, as you will want to cook a very large volume of shrooms, which love soaking up the oil, and shrink considerably in the cooking process. Usually, I buy a 5-pack of portobello caps and chop them very thinly myself. Or the pre-chopped and cut them thinner. Keep mixing the shrooms around in the oils. Once they are coated, add minced basil. Keep cooking until you get their juices free. Once soft/to desired texture, turn the heat up and keep mixing them around to cook the water off. Do a nice mild char on the mushrooms. Turn off heat and add just a small amount of Kikkoman Teriyaki Baste and Glaze. Eat over black rice, farro, brown rice pasta, quinoa, whole wheat pasta, even on a vegetarian sandwhich!)

🌱Pecans

🌱Peanuts

🌱Pine nuts

🌱Pistachios

🌱Tofu (Preferably superfirm, as this texture has the highest amount of protein per serving.

Tofu scrambles are a good idea for on the go protein. Easier to use extra firm tofu for scrambles.)

🌱Walnuts (best nut for omega-3)

Try purchasing different cuts of nuts (I love Trader Joe's for nut shopping) softening slivered almonds, cashews, pine nuts, peanuts by placing them in a bowl of boiled water for 15 minutes or more, and add to stirfried vegetables, rice, gluten-free pastas, salads.

"Protein load." This is where you pair everything, including snacks, with a protein option.

Protein increases your response to insulin without raising your blood glucose. ⬅️ ✅️ This is what you want to do to help lower A1C.

Eat more seeds! But preferably GROUND and/or HULLED. Your body can't access the omega-3 inside the seed if it is not opened first. Good for regulation of bowel movements, though. 💩

Seeds are wicked nutrient dense, and also contain healthy polyunsaturated fats, PROTEIN, and fiber.

Fat, protein, and fiber are the nutrients you want to focus on to lower your A1C and maintain a healthy weight. These 3 nutrients slow how fast glucose is released into your bloodstream, and help you feel full! Poly fats are even BETTER than monos at lowering A1C, and they maintain brain health and skin integrity.

🌱Chia (Look into making chia seed "pudding," as the recipe is extremely versatile. I love it with soy-free vanilla flavored Silk, or Almond Breeze's chocolate almond beverage. NEVER eat them raw/without letting them take on fluid first if you want to eat them whole/unground, as they can absorb fluid in the GI tract and cause a blockage. 😱)

🌱Flax (I put this ground in almost all my smoothies, and in oatmeal. 1-2Tbsp at a time.)

🌱Hemp seeds (Whole Foods has hulled hemp seed. Looks weird, but nice in smoothies and oatmeal. You might even want to experiment with putting it in rice. 1Tbsp at a time, as these ones might make you go more. 💩 Great for constipation management, especially when paired with plenty of water and physical activity.)

🌱Sunflower KERNELS ONLY. NEVER eat the husks of sunflower seeds (probably any seed, honestly), as these are causal in phytobezoar formation. Every piece of evidence I have found on phytobezoars happened to involve ingestion of the husks of sunflower seeds. For eating more volume, I recommend unsalted sunflower kernels. They're good on salads.

Avoid baked goods, candy, sugar sweetened beverages, and opt for fruit instead. Even artificial sweeteners harm the microbiome. 🚫👎🏾🧫

Craving sweet? Use juices that have no added sugar, and preferably not from concentrate. Trader Joe's has a unique selection. Some of my go to smoothies that I pair with nuts for a busy day, and also add ground flax and/or hulled hemp seeds to:

Tropical smoothie ⛱️🌊:

🍎Pineapple juice (4oz)

🍏Mango juice (4oz)

🍎Kale

🍏Frozen banana

🍎A small apple (or 1/2 a medium)

🍏Ground flax and/or hulled hemp seed (1-2Tbsp of each)

Brain smoothie 🧠👁:

🫐Pomegranate juice (bitter, so cut with a sweeter fruit/aged frozen banana)

🍒Blueberries

🫐Blackberries

🍒Raspberries

🫐Banana

🍒Ground flax and/or hemp seed (1-2 Tbsp of each)

Juices. Eat a fat with these 100%, as fat will help you absorb the fat-soluble vitamins in beta-carotene-containing/fat-soluble-vitamin-containing fruits/produce, giving you that skin glow 💋:

🥕Carrots

🍊Oranges/clementines

🥕Mango (fresh blended mango, or the juice)

🍊Turmeric (fresh. For a single serving of juice, you don't need even a full shot worth of turmeric juice. It's *powerful* and may override the taste. You may even get away with just 1/4 shot turmeric juice per 16oz serving of juice. Add a tiny bit of ground black pepper to potentiate any added herbs or spices!)

🥕Lemon (1 lemon worth of juice or so per 16oz serving of juice)

I haven't tried this yet, but would love to juice a cantaloupe as well for this recipe.

OR, if you don't have a juicer/don't want to get one, TJ's has an awesome carrot turmeric juice that tastes really good!

Complex carbs I go for frequently, but try to limit to about 1/2-1cup serving size (about 2oz serving for pastas), and ALWAYS add Earth or Smart Balance to your complex carb. Smart Balance tastes more buttery than Earth Balance, so I would use less if you try it. Smart also has your fat-soluble vitamins, A, D, E, and K:

🌱Banza (more fiber here, so I sometimes eat half a box, especially on more active days. But chickpeas can be bloating, so careful with them. Drink a few cups of water beforehand.)

🍚Black rice

🥣Bob's Red Mill Organic Oats (I usually avoid regular oats/oatmeals. Glyphosate is generally recognized as safe, and is found in almost all oats. They use it to help release the oat during harvesting. Some people think glyphosate is harmful. Wouldn't suprise me if it is. Nutrigenomics is interesting, and what you eat even affects the expression of your genes, which differs by individual. Caveat: organic does not mean "pesticide free." If you want an oatMEAL using Bob's brand, grind the oats in a food processor before adding water, pop them in the microwave, or cook on the stovetop.)

🍚Brown rice

🍝Brown rice pasta

🍞Dave's Killer Bread (Try doing it with tofu scramble, and maybe even add the sautéed portobellos!)

🌾Farro

🥣Quinoa

🍝Whole wheat pasta (love this with Smart Balance, salt, minced basil)

Other protein sources, but these also have more carbs than nuts or tofu. Pair well with your complex carbs:

🌱Black beans (try doing a salsa salad with this. Add your choice of salsa and vegan cheese, pair with a Southwest style kale)

🌱Bush's Vegetarian Baked Beans

🌱Chickpeas (Bloat city, though! Eat more rarely. Pair with lots of water drinking before consuming to deal with the fiber and prevent gas.)

🌱Kidney beans (dark red kidney beans pair well with salads, or on their own!)

🌱Lentils
