(VEGAN RECIPE) In honor of yesterday’s Earth Day, I wanted to share one of my favorite recipes for this week’s Meat-Free Mondays Challenge. This is a cold “pasta.” Replacing pasta with zucchini is a good way to pack in a few more nutrients, color and flavor. Even better, the zucchini twirls on a fork just like spaghetti! — Global Animal
(VEGAN RECIPE) Tortilla chips don’t last long in my house, but every once and while I find an open, forgotten bag in the cupboard. Chilaquiles is the perfect cure for stale tortillas chips or tortillas, and even better when fresh. Celebrate the Meat-Free Mondays Challenge with this Mexican inspired dish with black beans, or mix it up with tofu, tempeh or seitan. This is a great meal for anytime of the day, and a known hangover helper! — Global Animal
(VEGAN RECIPE) Who doesn’t love a simple chocolate chip cookie? Try this sweet and easy recipe for this week’s Meat-Free Mondays Challenge. I like to use cacao powder, a superfood, for a boost of extra chocolate flavor. Or leave it out for a more traditional chocolate chip cookie. Chocolate is a good source of magnesium and is full of antioxidants. It can also increase serotonin levels which makes us happy, but chocolate lovers already know that! — Global Animal
