Mexican Rice and Bean Casserole

What do you eat on a plant-based diet?

There is so much variety on a plant-based diet. If you are new to plant-based eating, focus on eating:

  • Beans
  • Grains
  • Veggies
  • Fruit
  • Seeds and Nuts

There are foods you should avoid too:

  • highly processed packed foods
  • meat
  • dairy
  • foods with added oil

We eat all kinds of foods. Our favorites vary by season but we always enjoy Plant-Based Soups, beans and rice, especially Mexican Rice and Oil-Free Refried Beans. Yes, you can have tacos on a plant-based diet.

We also eat hearty salads like my Quinoa Lentil Salad.

Oil-Free Hummus

Don’t forget about hummus! It’s practically the official food of the plant-based diet. We enjoy hummus and eat it with fresh veggies, on sandwiches, wraps and anything else you can think of. Our favorite hummus recipes are:

  • Classic Oil-Free Hummus
  • Cilantro Jalapeno Hummus
  • Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

If you don’t know how to make beans I highly recommend this post that will walk you through it. Using dried beans and cooking them yourself is a great way to save money while eating plant-based.

Plant-Based Tips

There are a few other things that have made eating plant-based even easier.

  • This Dry Veggie Broth Mix is perfect for flavoring soups, grains and more.
  • My Instant Pot (Here are 10 reasons I LOVE mine!)
