 When you take some of your favorite fresh veggies and put them in a vegan wrap recipe, something great happens. You get a quick, easy, nutritious and delicious meal. Wraps are also great for meal prep the next day and throughout the week. There are so many veggies and dressings to choose from, they never get old! Whenever I choose veggies, I think about the health benefits as well. For instance, yellow squash is packed with vitamins. It also has anti-cancer properties and improves cardiovascular and prostate health. When combined with other fresh vegetables, the health benefits are phenomenal. It gives me a great feeling when I know I am providing my family with healthy, wholesome, and nutritious meals. Vegan wraps are very kid-friendly as well. My daughter chooses her veggies and designs her own wrap, and I love spicy foods, so my wraps usually have an element of heat. My husband likes fresh and savory wraps. There is literally something for everyone to enjoy!  Fresh, zesty, light, nutritious, and only seven ingredients! Author: The Sensible Vegan Recipe Type: Main Cuisine: Vegan Serving: One Ingredients

Since reading about the ingredient carrageenan, I decided to eliminate it from my diet. This meant that I could not use the same cheese that I used in my last vegan quesadilla recipe, but I stumbled upon an amazing vegan cheese product that added the perfect touch to my spicy quesadillas.  I used Tomato Cayenne Chao slices by Field Roast. They are "made with a hint of tomato and complimented by bell peppers and cayenne, providing a sharp and spicy cheese." This cheese melts perfectly, and I will definitely be using it in many vegan recipes in the future.   Spicy, cheesy, meaty, and only six ingredients!

Beyond Meat has great vegan grilled chicken strips that are lightly seasoned, 100% plant protein, and they also contain 20 grams of protein per serving.

Yes, it true! I've never been a beef eater, but in my non-vegan days I ate more than my share of ground turkey. I am so glad that there are so many quality vegan meat substitutes to choose from these days. From beefy vegan nachos, to vegan pizza, the recipe options are endless using the vegan crumbles.  I have used many different vegan ground crumbles, but the Boca veggie ground crumbles are my favorite. Boca uses pure ingredients, and it is also carrageenan free. Carrageenan is used in everything from yogurt to ice cream. It acts as a thickener to improve the texture of certain foods; however, several animal studies have linked carrageenan to ulcerations and cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. This is why I read ingredients thoroughly and make sure I do not see it among the list of items I purchase.  Filling, beefy, loaded with veggies, and only seven ingredients!

It was such a hit that I ended up making it twice this week. In fact, my non-vegan husband stated that this is his second favorite of my vegan meals. (My veggie burgers are his absolute favorite.)  Besides being rich in vitamins and potassium, bell peppers also contain a specific type of antioxidant known as lycopene. It gives red bell peppers their color. Lycopene is a carotenoid that helps fight free radicals that we acquire from natural exposure to toxins in the environment. I also shared with my husband that Lycopene might help prevent certain types of cancer, especially prostate cancer in men.  It's amazing how tofu can be transformed. This extra firm tofu was exactly what I needed to make these vegan tacos superb! From tofu scramble to tacos, it can be seasoned and used in a variety of ways. It's also an excellent source of protein.  Filling, tofutastic, protein-powerhouse, veggielicious, and only nine ingredients to make!

This year, I was very excited to make a quick, kid-friendly, and great tasting vegan recipe. The sliders were right on target, and they were gone as quickly as it took to make them. This is a simple, four-ingredient recipe, and the sliders taste absolutely amazing.  Tofurky makes quality products. I use the products in my vegan pizza, vegan quesadillas, vegan burritos, and much more. It is seasoned well, flavorful, and high in protein.

After using it a few times I can truly say that I really like the results and will be using it in many other upcoming vegan recipes in the near future. Not only is it high in protein, it is inexpensive and easy to use. I have made different types of vegan bowl recipes, but this one is my favorite thus far. I think the organic red cabbage made it extra tasty!  First of all, red cabbage has pretty impressive health benefits. Dr. Axe calls it "disease-fighting and gut healing." Red cabbage boosts the immune system, fights inflammation and arthritis, aids healthy bones and reduces the risk of osteoporosis, combats chronic disease, and strengthens gut health. It's loaded with vitamin C and iron, and can be used in many dishes.  Protein-packed, colorful, flavorful, and only nine ingredients!

I'd love to hear from you! Post your recipe photos on Facebook or Instagram #thesensiblevegan. Thank you!  The first time I cooked with extra firm tofu was when I made my tofu scramble recipe. I was so hesitant about cooking with it that I almost passed it by. I had never used the product before, so I was not sure how it was going to turn out. It was very good--actually better than the restaurant version, but after that I never bought it again. I was looking in my refrigerator one day last week and saw a package of super firm tofu that I did not buy. I was so pleased that my non-vegan husband had purchased it. I still wasn't sure about what I was going to do with it.  After eating a tofu burrito bowl at Willy's Mexicana Grill, I was inspired to make a similar dish at home. I was extremely pleased at how the tofu turned out. It had a nice crunch on the outside, and it was tender and packed with flavor on the inside. In tofu dishes I had previously purchased at various restaurants and stores, some of it was dry, tasteless, soggy, and just gross. I did not want this to happen, so I was determined to try and season it as best I could. I kept pondering as to what to use, and I finally settled on Bragg Liquid Aminos. I read the label and was convinced it would work, and I was right! Score! Seven ingredients later, I had a winner dinner!

Before becoming vegan I frequently ate the regular Quorn chicken products, but I had to stop eating them after I became vegan because they contain eggs and milk. I was so excited when I found that Quorn offers a vegan option. I tried it, and wrote a review on the product as well. In this recipe, I decided to incorporate the chik'n into an easy wrap recipe.

With the right ingredients, they can also be healthy and nutirent packed! But most of the time when eating nachos, the last concern on people's minds is the nutrition information! It's definitely okay to indulge every now and then! This verson of nachos has over 10 grams of protein per serving, and with ingredients like fresh avocado, red onion, and fresh diced tomatoes, you don't have to feel guilty for eating them!  As I have previously stated, I love using Beyond Meat products in my recipes! I used the Beefy Crumble in this recipe. I made a delicious vegan chili with it not too long ago, and it was fabulous! The crumbles are high in protein and low in fat. It is also the only gluten-free and soy-free crumble on the market. Excellent! It contains no cholesterol, antiobiotics, or saturated fat.

I'm not sure if there are any restaurants in the area that make vegan chili, but I decided to make my own since I wanted to add specific ingredients and make it spicy. This recipe does not require a lot of money, time, or ingredients. I spent a total of $15 on ingredients, and bought everything organic.  I used Beyond Beef Beefy Crumble for the meat. It is a truly amazing product, and I did a review on it in a previous post. It's high in protein and tastes unbelievable. I am constantly asked about vegan sources of protein, and this product is just another great example of a high quality vegan protein source. There are many great vegan companies that make meat substitutes, so you can add your favorite to the chili. If you would like to have a milder version you can leave out the cayenne, but I think that's what makes this recipe great. It's one of my daughter's favorite cold weather meals, and it's packed with so much protein, fiber, flavor, vitamins, and nutrients. My husband likes to have it with vegan grilled cheese sandwiches or cornbread.  This recipes uses eight ingredients, and after combining all of your ingredients and letting them simmer for about half an hour, you are on your way to enjoying a great bowl of vegan chili! It is especially great after a day or so in the fridge after all of the flavors marinate. Absolutely delicious.

You can liven up a basic sandwich by using tortillas instead of sandwich bread. This sandwich wrap is fresh, nutritious, and savory. It is filled with superfood ingredients like avocados, spinach, cucumbers, and mushrooms. If you have not tried Tofurky deli slices, you are in for a treat. I used the hickory smoked slices, and they totally transformed this already amazing wrap. I paired it with some Terra chips on the side.  This powerful mixture of veggies has a long list of health benefits.

You can easily customize them by filling them with your favorite vegan ingredients. For this recipe, I used spelt tortillas and filled them with kale, red onion, red bell peppers, and yellow bell peppers. There are so many veggies with amazing health benefits, that it's very easy to create a delicious and nutritious meal.  I sauteed the vegetables in extra virgin olive oil to get them perfectly caramelized. Bell peppers have great health benefits. They are high in vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber. Red onions have cancer fighting and anti-inflammatory properties, and studies show that half an onion a day could reduce the risk of stomach cancer by 50 percent!  The meal would not be complete without homemade guacamole. It is very simple to make, and I only used three ingredients: avocados, lime juice, and a pinch of sea salt.

I had never noticed this product before, and I was super excited when I saw the Non-GMO label on it as well. I grabbed the bag and tossed it into my cart. I was also thinking of a good, quick, inexpensive dinner idea as well. I was at a loss until I hit the frozen food aisle. When I passed by the frozen burritos everything clicked...  I grabbed a few more items, but I already had almost everything I needed at home to make a fabulous burrito bowl.

With nachos, the possibilities are endless! There are soooo many ingredients to choose from. This recipe combines some of my favorite ingredients and toppings to create a fabulous, hearty, and flavor-packed plate of nachos.
 Quesadillas are one of my top, favorite meals. You can be as creative as you want to be and incorporate many different ingredients. You can get super technical, but I like to keep it quick and easy using fresh, organic ingredients!
 I absolutely love chicken salad. It's a nice, light, springtime kind of meal! I was racking my brain trying to figure out what to use for the "chicken" part of the salad so I headed to Whole Foods to see what I could find. I ran across an interesting item that I had never tried before, so I decided to give it a try.
 Before the whole food poisoning crisis hit Chipotle, it was one of my favorite places. I would frequently order a burrito bowl from the eatery, but then came the epidemic of bad headlines regarding food safety. The chain is still struggling to recover, and I have never revisited the place. So, of course the natural thing to do would be to create my own version of my favorite Chipotle dish, the burrito bowl...and I did exactly that!
What makes a great chicken burrito? The ideal combination of tender chicken, fresh ingredients, and bold flavors, of course! I created this recipe and utilized Beyond Meat chicken strips, and they worked superbly!
Who doesn't love a flavorful, cheesy, tasty pizza with a nice crust? I know I do! This version is delicious, uses all organic ingredients, and it is totally dairy-free! The mini pizza is a perfect snack, and it's just the right size for kids' hands as well. The great thing about it is you can incorporate your favorite ingredients and customize a pizza of your very own!
 I was at Whole Foods the other day, and I saw their prepared veggie burgers. I immediately took a picture of the burgers and ingredients, and with a few ingredient changes I made my own version! Instead of quinoa I used organic brown rice, and I did not include cilantro.
