This week’s theme has been rolls, and you’re going to rock today’s roll! We are making spinach artichoke dip vegan egg rolls.

If you are cooking with us, these are the wrappers we are using.

As the warm weather approaches and we’ve been asked for more raw food recipes, this is a perfect opportunity to do an episode on spring rolls!

Also, in case you missed our Sunday episode of Easy Peanut Sauce, we will be re-purposing that for these rolls.

In this edition of the Plant-based Quarantine (PBQ) Cooking Show, you’ll learn to balance flavors to make the most perfect and yet easy enough for every day, peanut sauce.

This multi-week program is designed to help you transition to a whole food, plant-based lifestyle. It is an extension of the very popular and trailblazing film that started this lifestyle movement, Forks Over Knives. This program has officially been endorsed by the creator of the film and it is the only one of its kind.

It looks a little intimidating, but this little block of fermented beans can be more digestible than tofu and tempeh is a nutrient-dense soy product with a high amount of protein, as well as various vitamins and minerals. It may decrease cholesterol levels, oxidative stress and appetite while improving bone health. Tempeh also contains prebiotics, which may improve digestive health and reduce inflammation. Sooo - let’s dig in!

“May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow. And may trouble avoid you wherever you go." Celebrate this St. Paddy’s Day without damaging your body, but still making your taste buds dance!
