VEGETARIANS TRY MEAT FOR THE FIRST TIME

Gonna be tasting meat, for the first time in about 30 years. I've been a vegetarian for about a year now. So I'm really just, completely turned off meat, so (sigh) I'm really nervous. Comin' up to five years I would be vegetarian now I'd say.

I fell off the wagon once or twice at the start, cause it's not easy. But yeah a good 5 years, I'm proud to say Oh my god! It's sausage, what, is that bacon around it, is it? I've only ever had a barbecued (pause) vegetable so, (nervous laugh) It's not as good as I remembered, I'm sorry (laughs) oh my god...Sorry... I'll take one more (laugh) I won't I'm not touchin' it no I just couldn't imaging swallowing it. (Sigh) No, god no (nervous laughs) Gosh, even cutting this is hard That's the one thing you never have to worry about with vegetables I knew there was gonna be meat involved, but no, I didn't even, but I wasn't even gonna allow myself to think what kind of...Meat Jesus how do people do this? *Groans no* Is that enough of a taste? (Nervous laugh) I can't do it Just doesn't seem like food So dipping the chicken in the blue cheese, is that cheating? Okay, now that's as good as I remember Strangely, out of all the meats chicken is the one that I really can't stand even the thought of oh my god...

Even just the fact that you have to touch it your fingers just, when I took a bite into it and I touched the bone, i was just... (Disgusted sounds) yeah, its the skin and the mmmmm..... I'm sorry that is so good This is definitely the worst so far This is cow... This should be easy because well easier I think cause it's more processed I can really just...

Taste the meat by,  compared to everything else with it, it's really, just need to spit it out Old McDonald had a farm... Oh my god, there's so much chewing and it's just...Sorry e, i, e, i... I can feel the knife cutting into it and I'm like ughhh Yeah, this is my memory of meat, that,  you're just chewing and chewing and it's not going anywhere. Veal? What is that? Honestly with veal it's kinda the ethical thing that's why people don't eat it, but in terms of tasting...I can't imagine it's any different.

Ugh, my stomach's turning even just thinking about biting into it. I feel so guilty cause that's nice it is like exactly nice It just does nothing for me, the taste is just, really kind of bland tissue-y um, yeah it doesn't really taste of anything The texture was much better than the steak because it's a baby Just I don't look at it as being food anymore like I really just look at as being, like, the flesh of an animal I'm a lot more set, yeah, a lot more assertive and sure that I'm...I'm vegetarian for life 100 percent What did one vegetarian say to the other vegetarian? We've got to stop meat-ing like this! That's all I've got that's my only vegetarian joke you're laughing! Oh no! I have another one now, I actually do, I have another one Why did the chicken cross the road? (Off camera) why? He was running from Colonel Sanders.

VEGETARIAN TRIES MEAT FOR THE FIRST TIME

Today we're going to eat meat (ha) kinda nervous I'm kinda...I feel like I'm really nervous actually because i've been vegeterian my entire life from the time that i popped out of mom's vagina i was a vegetarian (lAnguAgE) TRUE growing up my parents were vegeterians and so was I, cause there was no meat in the house so what was I gonna do, like buy it myself when i'm 7 you can't just walk to the store when ur 7 and buy fucking bacon sO because of that I never ate meat, and that's like cool like I don't care so i've gone this whole time being a vegetarian If in my life I can't talk Ethan : You're scared I know I'm scared of the meat I had this fun idea that, for you, I. Would try meats for the first time that i never tried now mind you. Yes I've been vegetarian my whole life but I have tried a few meats you know cause like sometimes bacon. YoU kNoW wHaT I'm SaYiNg so ive had bacon and then I've also had pepperoni  on pizza and thats kinda wild you know like it's rare definitely one of those things where like its the first day of school and like the teacher's like "okay everybody say a fun fact" and I'm like "I've never had meat before" and its like really cool and the whole class is like "oH mY gOd yoU'rE kidDing" and then I get attention for like 20 minutes and then nobody talks to me for the rest of the year like it's still cool though *American horror story theme song* let's do it bring it oh I also have my friends here who are going to help me like they picked out meat for me because obviously like naturally I'm not going to like know what to pick out.

It's dripping it's dripping it's dripping throw it out the window I'm nOt GoNnA ThRoW iT OuT ThE wINdoW! NOOOoO. Underwhelmed I've literally had veggie burgers that were better than that which is surprising because like...I don't know...Veggie burgers are supposed to be boring as fuck but I- i'm not a fan! Here's the thing: there is a lot of hype around the in n ouwt iN n OuWt in n ouwt? There's a lot of hype around in n out.

It's hard when something's so hyped up for you to be like you know you hype it up so much in your head yeah like it wasn't like uGhHHGHHGhH u know what I mean like it was pretty good but it was like- that's-that's the...Tea i think my favorite thing of the day today  was definitely chick fil a overall consensus - is that the right word? I have no fucking clue I didn't go to school me either I think my overall conclusion is that: meat? Is it good? Sure. But it's not great. But meat's not bad meat has its moments it doesn't make me feel that good it kind of makes me feel a little bit oily...And sweaty I think that was the meat lover's pizza I think that was just me though...Like I think I was just like that before maybe ur just a little nervous :P. I ate the meat and I chewed it up and I swallowed that shit meat honestly is a solid four and a half out of ten I really am underwhelmed.

I'm not excited about it. I really don't care. I'm probably still gonna be vegetarian after this and that's the damn tea I luv u <3, thanks for watching, hope u had fun- u talk way too much and way too fast no this is good that's it for today's- that's it for today's video i'm done aaaaannnnnndddd ethan: do u feel sick? No I don't feel sick ethan: see I think that's a lot of people's biggest worry that they'll feel sick (right) you don't feel sick? No I feel fucking fine ok byeeee see u guys later! There was nothing to worry about...What does that mean? *Laughs* there's nothing- she fucking- there's nothing- there was nothing wrong- nothing bad happened she shouldn't have been worrying about anything no I was fine it's not a big deal it's not a big deal why do my teeth look so white like this? Me too *laughing* ok bye I need to go *far away - tomppabeats*.

Vegetarian Thai Food A Guide to Eating Healthy (and Delicious) Thai Food!

Hey everyone, this is Mark Wiens with Eating
Thai Food dot com. Today I'm at one of the ultimate vegetarian food courts in Bangkok,
it's called Baan Suan Pai, also known as Banana Family Park. Of course, if you're vegetarian
or vegan you're going to absolutely love this place, but the food is so good here, you'll
want to eat here even if you're a carnivore. To get to Baan Suan Pai take the BTS to Ari
station, take exit number one and go down the stairs to your left, walk along Phahon
Yothin road for about one hundred meters until you reach a sign that says welcome to banana
family park.

Turn right into the small cafe alley way, walk all the way to the back past
a few coffee shops and a few stores until you can smell the delicious vegetarian food. It's like a food court style, so you order
your food here and then you go sit at a table. As you can see, I went a little crazy, but
the food all looked so good that you can easily accumulate a bunch of different things. I'm
going to go through the food right now and show you exactly what I ordered.

I got a dish, it's a curry made with pumpkin. Bitterness is an excellent flavor but it does
take a little getting used to. Ohh, I love that. This is called puak tod, and this is taro
ground up and then it's fried on the outside into a loaf.

Add some of this sauce. Got a quick dish here called kuay teow lui
suan, it's like a noodle wrapper filled with lettuce, some herbs, I think there's some
tofu and mushrooms in that. It's very fresh, the sweet and sour and spicy sauce is fantastic. This is probably my favorite thing at this
whole restaurant, these beautiful skewers of steak.

No they're not steak actually, they
are mushrooms. I just wanted to mention the vegetarian Thai
food guide. It's an eighty page ebook stuffed with useful information and tips about how
you can order and eat tastiest vegetarian and vegan food that Thailand has to offer. If you're vegetarian, if you're vegan, or
even if you just want to start eating healthy delicious Thai food, make sure you get your
own copy of the vegetarian Thai food guide, so you can take advantage of this awesome
food, it's just incredible.

Anyways, as you can see, I still have a bunch
of food left on the table, I'm about to dig in and finish it all. I finished off all of the food except for
this last bite which is the last remaining piece of het hom ping, the absolute sirloin
kobe beef of all mushrooms and it's fully vegetarian. It just melts in your mouth, it's
juicy, it's tender, that will put a smile on your face any day. Thanks for watching this video, when you're
in Thailand make sure you eat and sample all kinds of delicious Thai vegetarian food and
don't forget to check out the vegetarian Thai food guide!.

Vegetarian Pizza from McDonald's is not a Myth

Hello everyone, this is Running On Empty ... Food Review! Well hello ladies and gentlemen and everyone watching This is Running On Empty Food Review and I am your host TheReportOfTheWeek So I'm at the world's largest McDonald's yet again. It's uh been about over a year since I was here last and one of the cool things at least about the world's largest McDonald's here in Orlando is that they have a much larger menu than most other McDonald's in the area and one of the very unique things that they offer here And I should mention first and foremost this isn't like a new nationwide release this isn't like a new menu item or promotion that's available at all McDonald's. Really, the immutable fact of it all is that this is a novelty item that's really available at this McDonald's here in Orlando, and then at two others one in West Virginia and one in Ohio and that is pizza You can get mcdonalds pizza here It was released originally back in the 80s as a big menu promo and things that kind of fell through But there were a few locations and still have it kind of is like a promo unique item Etc and this is one of them.

Now, it's a build-your-own pizza So it's not like they just have pepperoni pizza, and the meatball pizza and a vegetable pizza They have-- It's all customizable, so have an array of toppings that are out there They have a variety of things you could do with the pizza You could get a combination...You could even get pineapple on the pizza I bet if you really wanted it you could get no cheese No, sauce just the base and pineapples if that's what you really want. They have a brick oven in there They'll they'll probably do it and you can kind of get a pizza your way, which is pretty cool. And I. Decided I should say to change things up.

Instead of getting a usual pepperoni pizza, which I already did try out and review the last time I was here, I got kind of like a vegetarian pizza as I said, it's build your own, but here's what it has on it, all right. It's got their standard pizza, sauce which is like you know mozzarella not mozzarella Just your standard tomato sauce has mozzarella cheese on it That's where I was getting that from diced green peppers diced tomatoes spinach and sliced mushroom Which is pretty cool that you can get that from McDonald's, you know doesn't sound like it? But it is it comes in this full-blown official pizza box right here, which I think is pretty cool I almost dropped it but disaster was averted And now for the grand reveal The one thing is sometimes it's tough. Oh here it goes This is what it looks like right here. It's a, uh-- It's like a build-your-own veggie pizza from McDonald's and I.

Think it is impressive, and I think you know they deserve praise where they get it And they deserve the criticism where it is, but I think it's pretty impressive that this pizza came from McDonald's I mean if you saw this doesn't look like something that would even be associated with McDonald's so I think that in and of itself It's pretty cool One thing about the box is sometimes it's a little hard to navigate. That's okay anyway Let's get ourselves a slice here Seems like it was cut pretty good Is that the view of a slice looks like you can see a little bit of a baked on the bottom there? Little baked on the crust, too and That's what it looks like so we know what's on it again I kind of wrote it down here mozzarella cheese pizza sauce diced green peppers diced tomatoes spinach and Mushroom so with that being said I think I'm just going to try this one out It's a McDonald's veggie pizza going in You know it was interesting it's a an interesting observation at least When I went in Remind you this is like in a big tourist hub There's a lot of people around a lot of people going in and out back and forth It's around lunch hour too. So midday people are naturally going to McDonald's especially one. That's this big kind of talked about it cetera And I thought there were gonna be more people in there Taking advantage of the pizza.

You know they it's one of three locations in the country that serves McDonald's Pizza that's not like this is an item that you could get at any McDonald's and I mean, that's it's legit It's not like they take out a frozen disc and put it in a microwave for 10 seconds and Bon Appetit They have a full-blown cook oven you know pizza oven right there, which is Pretty cool to have a pizza making station and everything so they're dedicated to it. They have the full set up So I thought they were gonna be people you know ordering pizza in there Surprisingly enough it seemed like almost no one ever even gets the pizza here I don't know if it's because a lot of people just you know go in and associate our I want a Big Mac from McDonald's, and I just want to get a you know double hamburger and some fries and a coke and Maybe they don't even know that you could get pizza here or maybe they see it And they just don't really know what to do it might be a little overwhelming But I thought that more people would be kind of taking advantage of McDonald's Pizza books again You can't it's not a place. We could get it every day So That's a that's one in kind of interesting thing I thought more people would kind of be taking advantage of the opportunity to get a pizza and With that being said how was the pizza I? Think when it comes down to pizza especially something that's treated as a novelty especially something that's kind of Looked at that it came from a fast food place People will instinctively try to associate it with fast food quality that they'll see this pizza from McDonald's And you know they can't do anything about this But when people think of McDonald's and pizza if even such a thought does occur there are We're just gonna think of kind of the lowest Denominator of pizza they're gonna think it's like you know just your your garbage frozen pizza But the preparation that goes into it really does a lot when it comes down to the quality of the pizza They took their time to do this They put effort into this, and I think you could taste it, too. I think it's comparable to a pizzeria style pizza It's it's hand tossed And it's not super thin crust but it's not like a Deep-dish doughy pan pizza at all has a little bit of a crispiness and a little bit of a bake on the bottom and on The crust adds a little bit of a crunch to it, which is pretty good.

Here's my favorite thing about it, though The ingredients are a lot fresher than you would think coming from McDonald's Because I know sometimes people will get the Big Mac look at the lettuce And I say oh this lettuce tastes like it's been sitting here. You know for insert period of time or You get something with a tomato on it and they think the tomato is just rancid or whatever and people might think that the ingredients are just freeze-dried, but they're really fresh I. Was just impressed by it especially vegetables Because those I mean they don't have a very long lifespan in terms of being out And if they're trying to be preserved or frozen or whatever it might be it's kind of noticeable But I was surprised at the overall freshness of the ingredients and it really does make a difference in terms of of The quality of it when it's fresh when it's freshly made when it's not just heated up and everything is Put together. I think the quality is there taste is certainly there It was it was really flavorful.

I really enjoyed it really taste the mozzarella cheese on this which is kind of rare even for take-out pizza sometimes the cheese just blends in with everything and all the individual vegetables - very flavorful as I said very fresh and Overall I was just impressed by a truth be told and maybe I say that with a little bit of a bias because I had gone here before I. Had one of their pizzas before the first time I had it. I didn't know what to expect You know I thought to myself. Maybe this is this gonna be Garbage, I don't know But I tried it and I was kind of taken back by how good it was then I came back And I thought it's gonna give out like a veggie pizza, try.

I also said the other day I wanted to try to start you know expanding to maybe some vegetarian types of things if the channel 2 had my sights on this and sure enough they did a good job with it and And it's it's definitely quality it might be a novelty item But it's not just gonna be something that is completely Flavorless and something you could take a selfie with and and post and then just throw in the trash bin cuz it's that bad It's something that you'll enjoy you can share about you could say I got mcdonalds pizza And you didn't if you really want to be that person you can But I think it's a pizza that you'll enjoy too and tastes pretty good Price-wise smoothness, it's around $9 which makes sense Their pizza for a novelty pizza, but it's a good pizza So I think the price is fair it tastes pretty good so that being said out of 10 I'm going to be giving this pizza a 9 point 3 out of 10 because as I said, I was impressed by it the quality was was much higher than I think many would anticipate from this and Just all in all I think they did a good job with it so that's all that I have for you today I'm your host to the port of the week today We were trying out the McDonald's build your own pizza from the world's largest McDonald's here in Orlando also If you're interested you could check out our Teespring store if you want any report of the week merchandise You could find the links in the cards in the description we're at https://teespring.Com/stores/thereportoftheweek and also If you want to help this channel out you could also support us on Patreon https://www.Patreon.Com/TheReportOfTheWeek Again more info about that in the description and in the cards.

Vegan Vs Vegetarian ft. Gary Yourofsky

Vegetarians and vegans are usually lumped
together. What exactly separates the two? Are the differences greater than the similarities?
And is vegetarianism really a healthy, moral way of living? Lets find out! Hi its Emily from Bite Size Vegan and welcome
to another vegan nugget! Something I find interesting is that if you tell someone youre
vegetarian they are usually okay with it. But tell them youre vegan and suddenly
youre a militant extremist tiva-wearing tree-hugging whack-job covered in animal tattoos.
The basic difference between vegans and vegetarians is that veganism means abstaining from all
animal products, byproducts and methods of exploitation while vegetarianism simply means
abstaining from meat while still consuming diary, eggs, and honey, and wearing silk,
down, wool, and sometimes leather. While vegetarianism is usually portrayed as a healthy, animal-friendly
way of living, the truth is its crueler than meat eating and arguably more unhealthy.

Lets address health first and then move
onto the moral aspects. Dairy, eggs and honey are not only extraordinarily unhealthy food
choices but also really unnatural ones. Try to think of another animal who, once weaned
from their own mother, goes to suckle from the teat of another species. Its just not
meant to be.

(And if you do suckle directly from another species, you probably need help
outside of my expertise.) And how natural is it to eat the menstruation of another animal,
or their vomit? Now aside from how unnatural it is, dairy
consumption is linked to a slew of medical conditions, including heart disease, obesity,
clogged arteries, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, a variety of cancers, and more.
Dairy is loaded with fat, cholesterol, sugar, not to mention all the fun bonuses that come
from our modern dairy industry, including antibiotics, growth hormones, and pus. Oh
yes. I said pus. Check out this video for more details about what exactly is in your
food.

Now let's address the moral aspects of vegetarianism.
One of the most cruel meat products that even some meat-eaters refuse, is veal. What many
people dont realize is that the calves used for veal are the stolen children of dairy
cows and that consuming dairy directly supports the veal industry. Im going to let vegan
activist Gary Yourofsky elaborate a little more on the ethical implications of vegetarianism: Gary: It is not an animal-friendly lifestyle
when you support the dairy industry. In fact, if you asked me to rank cruelty of animals,
and I don't like to because it's all unjust, but the dairy industry is the worst industry
on this planet.

You have mother cows being raped every year to impregnate them, you have
their babies being stolen every year, 3-7 years. You have machines being hooked up to
their udders, to their breasts three times a day to suck them dry. Then you send them
to the slaughterhouse when they can't produce milk anymore? So this is what vegetarians
support- they support the oppression and enslavement of hens in the egg industry. Even if it is
a cage-free free-range farm, when the hens stop laying enough eggs after 2-3 years, you
don't get a free stay- you get sent off to the slaughterhouse.

Vegetarians wear leather
and silk and wool. They consume honey. I'm still trying to figure out how vegetarianism
is considered an animal-friendly lifestyle, cause it's not. Now, as I say all this, if
you are using that as a stepping stone, I.

Don't care how you get to vegan- just sooner
rather than later. And I have to be fair, I dont want to be an Al Gore type, a politician
bullshitter- I went vegetarian for a year before I became vegan, but, I want to put
this out there- like most vegetarians I was not aware of the dairy and the egg industries.
If I had known then what I know now and I. Wasn't going to become vegan all at once,
I would've stopped eating dairy and eggs first. Then I would've taken meat out at the end.

Its true that many of us use vegetarianism
as a stepping-stone to veganism- but if the goal is to reduce the amount of cruelty of
our diet, or even increase our health, were really missing the mark here. A vegetarian
diet is still one composed of incredibly unhealthy animal byproducts and severe animal suffering.
Dairy and eggs support the same torture, cruelty, and slaughter that the meat industry does-
only the suffering of the animals involved is more prolonged than those raised for meat
alone. You can get more information about this topic
and the subjects related to it in my free eBook, which is linked below, or in any of
these videos. Please share this video around to help inform vegetarians and potential vegetarians.

Vegan & Vegetarian Holiday Potluck Recipes! - Mind Over Munch

Hey munchies! Welcome if you're new, I'm Alyssia, it's holiday
season, and I'm excited! Thanksgiving is coming up, Christmas is around
the corner, and this time of year, most of us get pretty excited about food. Eating food, sharing food with others, it's
a food-filled season! So today, I thought it would be appropriate
to share some holiday potluck dishes. I'm bringing you five recipes that are easy
to prepare in advance and take with you to a party or a get-together that you don't have
to feel quite as bad about. And, they are all either vegan or vegetarian
with a vegan option.

I kept these recipes plant-based because I
like to make sure there's always something available at a party that everyone can enjoy. And this way, you know there's always going
to be a healthier option. Let's start with my Holiday Bean Salsa. For this recipe you will need: red onion,
celery, garlic, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, black beans, baby gherkins, fresh parsley,
fresh mint, olive oil, lemon juice and zest, red wine vinegar, and salt n' pep.

In a mixing bowl, add your olive oil, red
wine vinegar, lemon juice, lemon zest, parsley, mint, and salt n' pep. Whisk to combine your dressing. Then, add kidney beans, garbanzo beans, black
beans, celery, red onion, gherkins, and garlic. Toss to coat, and that's literally it! Super easy to prepare, and such a delicious
and nutritious bean salsa.

Perfect for a potluck! Next, we're going to make my Chilled Stacked
Salad. For the base of this salad, you will need:
quinoa, red onion, spinach, red apple, celery, dried cranberries, feta cheese, and pecans. Layer all of your ingredients, like so, into
a trifle bowl. This makes for a beautiful holiday presentation.

Of course, for a vegan dish, you'll want to
omit the feta cheese. Oh, and we cannot forget the dressing! For the dressing, you will need: balsamic
vinegar, olive oil, honey (or maple syrup for vegan), lemon juice, dijon mustard, poppy
seeds, sesame seeds, and salt. Simply add all of your ingredients and whisk
to combine. Before guests enjoy, you can add the dressing
and toss.

This is such a fun dish to bring because it
looks impressive, it tastes delicious, and it takes no time to prepare. Alright, now we're going to make my Gingered
Fruit Salad. For this recipe, you will need: kiwi, pineapple,
pears, grapes, and pomegranate seeds - or really, whatever seasonal fruits you prefer
- as well as ginger, orange juice, lime juice, honey (or, again, maple syrup for vegan),
and nutmeg. Into a large mixing bowl, combine your dressing
ingredients and whisk.

Then, add the rest of your fruit. Toss to coat. So simple and delicious, offering a nutritious
and fresh dish with festive fall flavors. Alright, how about some dessert! Let's make my Buckeyes! A Christmas classic.

This recipe is directly from my "Ho Ho Healthy"
ebook, so check it out if you're looking for more healthy Christmas recipes, and you can
use the code "POTLUCK" for 10% off any ebook or package of your choice, this week only! For your Buckeye filling, you will need: powdered
peanut butter, sweetener of choice, natural creamy peanut butter, and oat flour. For the chocolate coating, you will need:
maple syrup, coconut oil, and cocoa powder, or you could just use melted chocolate or
dairy-free chocolate to keep these vegan. Add your filling ingredients into a large
mixing bowl and mix to combine. Use a cooke scoop to spoon out some of your
peanut butter filling mixture and roll it into a ball in your hands.

Repeat, and fill up a baking sheet lined with
parchment and sprayed. Now, for the coating. It can help the coating process if you transfer
the sheet of peanut butter balls to the fridge or freezer for a few quick minutes. In a separate mixing bowl, add your chocolate
coating ingredients and whisk to combine.

It should be a nice, smooth consistency, but
it could be thicker or thinner depending on your climate, so feel free to refrigerate
or microwave as needed. Then, use a toothpick to pick up one of your
peanut butter balls and dip it into your chocolate mixture, like so. And return to your baking sheet. If you want, you could cover up the little
hole on top, but it's not necessary to enjoy the delicious taste.

Allow to set in the fridge until serving and
devouring. Delicious! This one is always a guest favorite because
it's so easy to pop by the table, grab one, and go. Maybe a little too easy... We're finishing off the menu with a really
amazing, impressive, but surprisingly delicious recipe: my Chocolate Peppermint Silk Pie.

For the filling of this pie, you will need:
coconut cream, tofu (If you can get super firm, that's the best. Either way, I recommend pressing the tofu
to get rid of moisture), cocoa powder, peppermint extract, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and
cacao nibs. For the crust, you will need: dates, pecans
(or any nuts you prefer), and cocoa powder. Into your food processor, add your cocoa powder
and pecans.

Blend it on up! Once it's a nice crumb consistency, add in
your dates. I like to soak my dates in water overnight
so they are extra soft. Once again, blend until your dough-ball forms. Perfect! Next, we're going to grab a springform pie
pan, which, if you don't have one, I highly recommend it for your pie-making needs this
holiday season.

Line the bottom with parchment paper, like
so, for easy removal. Add your crust mixture down into the bottom
of the pie pan and press it down to flatten it nice and evenly. Set aside. Into your food processor, add all of your
pie filling ingredients, except for those cacao nibs.

Blend it on up! That tofu is going to give this pie filling
a creamy texture, add protein, and keep it vegan. Look how smooth! Pour your filling mixture into the pie pan
on top of your crust and spread it out as evenly as possible. Then, you can sprinkle on our cacao nibs. Then, simply transfer to the freezer overnight.

When you're ready to enjoy, allow to thaw
for an hour or two in the fridge before popping it out of the springform pan, slicing, and
devouring. Bam! Five delicious, nutritious dishes - perfect
for a potluck this holiday season. Thumbs up if you enjoyed, and let me know
which recipe you're most excited to try in the comments below. All of these recipes are available in the
PDF in the description box below, tag me on social if you try any of them, and remember
to check out my "Ho Ho Healthy" ebook and others at mindovermunch.Com/ebooks.

I hope you all have a wonderful week! Thanks so much for liking, sharing, and subscribing. And remember, especially when it comes to
those holiday parties, it's all a matter of mind over munch..

has about 9 grams of protein. This probiotic food also has a lot of vitamins
and minerals.

Eating Greek yogurt all the time will help
your digestive system stay healthy, boost your immune system, help with weight loss,
stop high blood pressure, lower bad cholesterol, and fight yeast infections. 2. Lentils Lentils is another good choice for protein. But they are not a full protein food because
they dont have all nine important amino acids.

protein. There are many good health reasons to eat
lentils. They give energy, lower the risk of heart
disease, help keep a normal body weight, and keep the digestive system healthy. 3.
