This meal is inexpensive, and filling… also creamy but entirely low fat and dairy-free. It will either feed a crowd, or offer a bunch of leftovers in the fridge for later in the week. It’s starch forward, low fat, vegan, made of whole foods, and does not contain any oil. But despite this it is […]
Chocolate Mint Pudding (Low fat, dairy free, soy free, nut free)
This vegan chocolate pudding does not contain much fat. I’m not using any of some of the common ingredients, such as avocado, nuts, tofu, or coconut milk or cream.

Spicy sweet corn salad with avocado and parsley (Low fat, vegan, no oil)

It’s such an easy thing to make, filling, cheap, and healthy. The burrito works just as well for lunch and dinner, which is probalby the most common time we eat it anyway! […]
