The first time I had broccoli salad was about three years ago, and it was pretty good. The only problem is that back then I was not vegan, and the salad contained cheese. Yesterday, I decided to make my own broccoli salad, and it turned out very well. Most traditional broccoli salads contain cheese and bacon, but this vegan broccoli salad is divine, and meat and dairy free. Broccoli has a long list of great health benefits. It contains sulforaphane, and it's what gives cruciferous vegetables their bitter bite. It is also what gives them their cancer-fighting power. Broccoli is also a great source of calcium, antioxidants, and many other vitamins and minerals. Crunchy, nutty, filling, tasty, and only five ingredients!

It was an early morning for me today. I arrived at the gym at 4:30 a.m. and did a cardio and biceps/back workout. When I got home I was pretty hungry, and as I looked in the fridge the zucchini stood out. I was going to just slice it up and eat it raw, but I decided to try something new. I decided to fry it. I do not eat many fried foods, so this was a splurge for me. When I really want to go all out, I do a tofu scramble for breakfast, but today I needed something quick and simple. Zucchini is such a versatile ingredient. It can be steamed, fried, or eaten raw. It is a great addition to salads, soups, and pastas, and the health benefits of zucchini are outstanding! It's loaded with vitamins and minerals, and studies show that it helps with the management of diabetes and helps reduce blood pressure as well. Quick, tasty, crispy, amazing, and only five ingredients! Author: The Sensible Vegan Recipe Type: Main, Side, or Appetizer Cuisine: Vegan Servings: 2 Ingredients

I normally add vegan crumbles to my recipes, but this time I opted for veggies. I added steamed spinach and roasted zucchini and created a fresh, healthy, tasty dish that feeds eight. I used all organic ingredients, and the cost was $18. I plan on using zucchini in more recipes. The health benefits are outstanding. Zucchini contains about 295 milligrams of potassium per cup. According to the American Heart Association, potassium can help control blood pressure because it lessens the harmful effects of salt. Zucchini is also a great source of vitamin C, it can be eaten cooked or raw, and it can even be used as a pasta substitute! Inexpensive, healthy, filling, flavorful, and only six ingredients!
