I’ve seen a number of people debating giving up dairy as concerns over avian flu grow. I gave it up nearly 20 years ago in an attempt to help with inflammation - and when I was healthier I experimented with making my own nut cheeses & milks. I wanted to share some basic ideas & inspiration for anyone considering going plant based.

The first photo is banana “nice cream”… an excellent & healthy substitute for ice cream. Freeze ripe bananas and place them in a high speed blender with sweetener of choice (I used dates), other fruit, chocolate, cinnamon… the possibilities are endless & the texture on point.

You can also use frozen bananas to make smoothie bowls! This one was high protein & full of vitamins & minerals. Dark cherries, cacao powder, hemp seeds, chia seeds & walnuts blended with cashew milk, dates, cinnamon & pink salt. Could easily be an entire meal

For a tropical feel you can top your chocolate nice cream with a mango sorbet! Frozen mangos blended with water & figs which add extra sweetness! 1/4

One of my favorite things about the way I chose to eat is that it has opened me up to trying so many new foods and cooking recipes.

Today I cooked for the first time Legendary Tuscan Potato Soup from @robert.cheeke in the Plant Based Athlete.

It is delicious. And it's easy to make. If I can make it you can make it.
