Toronto’s best vegan food
Vegan or not, plant-based food has come a long way. Toronto has earned the eight spot as one of the world's top ten vegan cities, according to Happy Cow. Vegetarians and vegans don't have to eat cardboard-textured Yves burgers anymore! Find out about my top 12 vegan spots in Toronto.
Oils are Good for Your Skin
While some people are misinformed about the relationship between oil and skin, others have tried serums but didn't use them correctly. You must apply on damp skin - that is, after you wash your face or after you apply toner. This allows for easy application and for the serum to be distributed evenly. The other reason why people are hesitant to try serums is because they seem to be expensive. If you use 4 drops a day and a 25ml container provides 500 drops, this means that one little jar will last 125 days or 4 months!
Masala Chickpeas & Roasted Veggies
An easy and healthy vegan, gluten-free, soy-free meal with some spice.
Lionheads’ Cashews & Green Beans Spicy Fried Rice
Many people like to order spicy green beans at their local Chinese restaurant. While it is yummy, the green beans are deep fried and the sauce contains a lot of sodium (and gluten for those who are gluten-sensitive). Here is a healthier option that is full of fiber and protein. Most importantly, it is super simple to make.
Lionheads’ Fried Rice
You can really put anything in fried rice, but this combination of dinosaur organic kale, sweet corn, peas, curried tofu, and organic alfalfa sprouts really shines. I’m going to be posting a series of easy and simple recipes for back to school/work in the coming weeks and this is one of them. These make great lunches or a quick dinner.
Lionheads’ Chinese Cucumber Salad
Our kind neighbour shared some cucumbers from the garden with us. I decided to make this slightly spicy salad. Bites of cold, crunchy cucumbers bursting with garlic and sesame flavours. Yum!
Lionheads’ Beet Salad
I thought a light tangy beet salad would be suitable for this hot weather.
Lionheads’ Quinoa & Peanut Salad
Unlike our Lionhead bunnies, I’m not a fan of eating carrots. I’m also not that fond of sauerkraut. But I know that these foods are packed with health benefits. I incorporated my partner’s love of peanuts to a sweet and tangy dressing and voila! Now, this fibre- and protein-packed salad is a household favourite and it is super simple to make.
Lionheads’ Unconventional Mushroom Risotto
Mushrooms are one of my favourite veggies. Risotto is one of my favourite comfort foods. That's how this recipe came about:)
