28 days of vegan diet. 28 days of exercise. 28 days to refocus.
Perfect balance yoga, a yoga studio I just recently started practicing at, is hosting this event. They are offering a ton of support, from cooking classes, to shopping lists (they've even threatened to shop with you), to M-F organized workouts. I don't know what drew me to this event - I think it might have been a combination of my new love of yoga, and excitement of losing weight (J+I have been counting calories since July, and I've lost 12 pounds!), and I think it might have just been the idea that it will be challenging, but I'll have built-in accountability since it's with a group.
So for the past few weeks I've been building up my excitement, and reading about all things vegan. I even made a pinterest board and I've been pinning up recipes and stuff. I want to make the transition as seamless as possible - to keep my husband on board, and so that I might want to keep it up after the month is over.
VEGAN ENCHILADAS! WHOOO |
This. was. delicious. It was beyond delicious. I used kale instead of spinach, because that's what we had. I also used super extra garlic, because that's how we roll.
The avocado-cilantro cream was incredible - smooth, lime-y, thick. Almost like guacamole but without onion flavor, and it was completely blended. I wanted to eat the whole bowl with a spoon. I only used half the called for amount of lime, because I had canned lime juice.
And, while I added some Trader Joe's brand vegan cheese to the top, I probably didn't need to. They were full of flavor - I made my own enchilada sauce that had a ton of flavor on its own.
Even my meat-eater husband was satisfied.
Do not hesitate to make this. And, I'll be posting nearly everyday during the month of February with more vegan recipes.
