This is 7 essential foods for creating vegan meals, by FitLife TV.
1- Kale
First on our list is my personal favorite, it’s kale. It’s considered the most nutrient-dense food on this earth. It’s amazing. You get a boost of chlorophyll. You can use it in your soups, smoothies, salads, and of course, you’re green juices.
2- Coconut Oil
Another great superfood, number 2 on our list, is coconut oil. Coconut oil is super high in medium-chain triglycerides which are extremely essential fatty acids. It’s great for your metabolism and increases your metabolic rate.
3- Quinoa
Number 3 on our list is quinoa. It’s actually not a grain, but it is gluten free. Quinoa has all 9 essential amino acids which is perfect for vegans.
4- Raw Seeds and Raw Nuts
Number 4 is raw seeds and raw nuts. Hemps seeds are actually wheat coz’ they have a great ratio of Omega 3s to Omega 6. It’s extremely good for cardiovascular health.
5- Nutritional yeast
Next on our list is nutritional yeast. Something that vegans have a hard time with getting into their diet is B12. So nutritional yeast is very high in B12. You can just put it over soups or salads.
6- Almond butter
None of this would be complete without number 6, that’s almond butter. It’s high in vitamin E, and vitamin E is extremely good for skin health. But be careful, watch out for almond butter added with sugar.
7- Fava Beans
Last but not the least on our list is, one of my favorites, fava beans. Fava beans are kinda’ underrated vegetable for me. It has actually 10 grams of protein in just 4 cups of fava beans.
You don’t have to be a vegan to eat these superfoods. These are awesome by themselves. So even if you are not following vegan diet, make sure you pack these in.
Alright, that is our list of 7 essential vegan foods to incorporate into your diet. I hope you enjoyed it as much as i did!
