Liberté Chan Instagram – I live on salads, soups, smoothies and stir-fry’s. Here is a basic salad I make 5 days a week that’s packed with protein, healthy fats, fiber, complex carbohydrates antioxidants (plus so much more!).
It’s a common misconception that vegans are deficient in iron, protein and B12…but I’ve found that if you eat a wide range of plants, legumes, and mushrooms, you will likely find that you CAN have all your nutrient needs covered. I’m not pushing a vegan lifestyle on anyone, I honestly believe you should listen to your body’s needs because everyone is different and may not feel good on a solely plant-based diet 😉💚
Before you ask if I’m getting enough protein and B12…I am! I just received the results from my latest panel of bloodwork and my B12, protein, iron and folate are all on the high-end of the spectrum (but still in the healthy range).
Recipe:
Base:
– Romaine Lettuce
– Carrots
– Cucumber
– Cherry Tomatoes
– Hemp Seeds
– Broccoli Spouts
For an added protein boost: add legumes or tofu
Dressing:
– Olive Oil
– White Wine Vinegar
– 1 Whole Avocado
– Fresh lemon and/or lime juice
– Himalayan Salt
– Cumin
– White Pepper
– Fresh cilantro parsley
Lmk if you try it! I’d love to hear what you think.
