Put More Plants on The Plate!
How can one consume mostly plants?
One step at a time! That is how I started my journey. It is possible to make small changes on our plate. Small changes still give results. My approach to a healthier health journey is all about the why's for eating mostly plants. As a health coach, I share the knowledge I've learned that can help others make small changes. As a Christian Plant- Based Health Coach, I enjoy helping others.
Satisfying Sundays
Sundays are satisfying! After church, I look forward to a plate full of vegetables. Seasonings used within the limits makes the vegetables taste delightful. Minimal to no animal protein! (Watch the fried foods) There is protein in plants. B12 Vitamins are also a good suggestion.
Pasta Mondays
Sometimes you have warm up food from yesterday. If not, have a pasta day! Whole grain pasta, multi-grain, or hidden vegetable pasta works for most. Add your favorite vegetables to your sauce seasoned to your liking and you have another great plate.
Taco Tuesday
Tacos! Nachos! Tostitos! It's like making a warm salad with all of the fixings. I would suggest watching the sodium in the tacos and etc. There are better brands of nachos to use. Protein? There are 39 grams of protein in black beans (soak them well) and 24 grams in ground beef. You would be amazed to know that there are better benefits in the plant proteins. Overall, add mostly plants on the plate.
