Foods you might not have Loved / Known pre-plant-based One Sheet Meal!

Today's sheet meal is dedicated to some of my Go2 fav foods that I either shunned or did not even know pre-vegan.

Thankfully with age (and habit) our tastebuds change... and our cooking ability can certainly improve too.

As it happens, today's sheet meal has double the Soy love! I will cover the myths surrounding my fav plant-based protein, including the estrogen mimicking effect of Soy in tomorrow's #FridayFAQ however spoiler, I am a HUGE fan of Soy.

This sheet meal starts with a couple of cruciferous super veg. (loved for their high nutrient value and estrogen balancing qualities)

Kale, wash then pat dry, rip into chip size and shake with a little macadamia oil, salt and nutritional yeast
Brussel, slice fine to cook evenly with the other tray veg and shake with a little macadamia oil, salt and nutritional yeast
Tofu, firm 100gm, marinate as desired and rip into smaller bits for a crispy texture
Edamame, shelled 1/2 cup
Quinoa, cooked 1/2 cup, added to the sheet meal to make crispy ('recipe' here)

These will all take around 20 minutes to cook however watch / turn the kale.

Side-note: this is quite a low caloric density selection. Meaning you can enjoy a mammoth serve or perhaps add half a baked sweet potato and / or a generous drizzle of tahini.
