To celebrate World Vegan day I’m sharing the simplest yet kick ass snack recipe (if you can even call it a recipe) known to any vegan.
This simple little munch is lovingly dedicated to a very awesome and inspiring friend of mine – a French little bundle of joy; Marie.
As a French woman staring down the barrel of a Sunday without croissants as she explores a vegan lifestyle, she’s asked for my help, so here it is.
She also has a partner in crime wanting to explore the vegan terrain, so for the purpose of him keeping his superhero profile a secret, we’ll call him Monsieur X.
Now there’s probably quiet expectation for me to blow your socks off with something shmancy, and I will in good time, but I’m a big believer in simple uncomplicated food that makes you crazy with excitement to GET-IT-IN-MA-BELL-LAY! Especially when you’re dipping your toes in a new eating style.
As you know, I hail from a family butchering business (ironically) and the rules I learned growing up were simple – quality food, wholesome eating, made with the love of providing for your family and sharing with others. Regardless of your dietary choices, these rules seem to be the cornerstone of pretty much every kitchen table in my family. Even if there is a side helping of “your grandparents would turn in their graves”… 😀
When I made the decision to revamp my eating habits and kick certain shit to the curb, this modest snack/mini meal saved my sanity and my belly in that first month. I couldn’t believe it tasted so good.
So now, my lovely Marie,
You love a good avocado, so lap this shit up!!! It might even be TOO simple for your already healthy ass, but it will not disappoint you young lady! X
