 I must admit that before becoming vegan I enjoyed boneless buffalo wings. Back then I was one of the millions of people that enjoyed food but did not take the time to think about the fact that an animal, that did not want to die, suffered a horrible death just so I could appease my taste buds. My eating habits and thought process were totally transformed! Today, I think about simple ways I can veganize some of my old favorites in ten ingredients or less. I decided to give buffalo cauliflower a try. Experiencing with ingredients like turmeric, nutritional yeast, and cumin (things I already had in my pantry) I was not sure how they would turn out. I am pleased to say they not only look great, but the taste is out of this world.  In addition to being a versatile ingredient, cauliflower has a long list of impressive health benefits. It's loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help fight inflammation in our cells. Because it's high in fiber and water, cauliflower slows digestion and promotes that "full" feeling. This may assist you in the amount of calories you consume overall in a day. It can be added to soups, pizza, pasta, and many other recipes. I am going to be featuring cauliflower in several recipes to come!  Once I coated the cauliflower in the mixture of flour, almond milk, and spices I evenly coated it with panko bread crumbs to give it the crunchy texture.  The end result can be served as an appetizer or side and is fantastic paired with fresh, steamed veggies!  Crispy, crunchy, tender, tasty, and only ten ingredients!

 Chickpeas are nutritious, versatile, and a great addition to many recipes. From garden salads to vegan tuna salad, chickpeas add flavor and health benefits. Chickpeas are high in protein and fiber. They are also a great source of calcium and selenium, which helps the enzymes in the liver to function properly and can detoxify some cancer-causing compounds in the body. In addition to chickpeas, this recipe is packed with seven superfood ingredients. It can be used a side and a great topping for veggie burgers. It only takes a few minutes to make. Enjoy!

They are a wonderful addition to a veggie plate, and they don't have to be laden with butter and salt to taste good. I often make mashed potatoes as a side dish for holiday meals. This is an easy and inexpensive recipe that my daughter helped me to prepare. Family cooking is what I love to do!  Potatoes are a great source of potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin B6. I like to leave the skins on my potatoes when I cook them for added nutritional value. The skins contain phytochemicals, and these bioactive compounds help fight high cholesterol and heart disease. Creamy, comforting, hearty, flavorful, and only seven ingredients to make.

It is deliciously fried to golden perfection. After a trip to my visit my parents, I left with a bag of okra fresh from their garden. I had planned on just slicing it and frying it the usual southern fried way, but I started thinking about other things I could make with it, and okra fries was my choice.  I have had zucchini fries before, and they were divine. I have never had okra fries before, so this recipe was truly an experiment. Since I wanted them to be crispy and nicely coated, I used almond milk and panko bread crumbs to give them a nice crunch on the outside,while remaining tender on the inside.   Crunchy, flavorful, tender, and only eight ingredients!

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!

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 think back to the slaw with mayo, and I just sigh. I have come a long way! Lol! This vegan slaw recipe contains some of my favorite ingredients. It's very simple to make, and the flavor is out of this world. I look forward to topping my vegan burgers with it tomorrow.  The foundation of the recipe is red cabbage. I like incorporating red cabbage into my recipes because of the great health benefits of this superfood. It has more vitamin C than oranges, it's high in fiber and antioxidants, and it tastes great and can be used in many ways.  Tangy, fresh, delicious, nutritious, slaw-tastic, and contains only five ingredients.

Some pack tremendous heat, and others are light and fruity. However, there are quite a few out there that have a small serving size, and a high sodium content that can creep up on you if you are mindlessly munching! There is a delicious peach mango salsa that I love to purchase, but today I opted on making my own. This is a quick and simple recipe that you can make at home and revise with your favorite ingredients. You can at it to vegan salads, vegan nachos, and any other vegan dishes you like.
