On The Way To All The Way Vegan

Went to Mohawk Bend to watch the USWNT and had The Big Mohawk. A double Impossible with fixin’s. It was amazing. I should’ve added tomatoes though. Also had a delicious IPA from Beechwood, the Amalgamator. And, Megan Rapinoe scores twice and led us against France || 1315p #vegan #veganoptions #impossibleburger #doubleimpossible #amalgamator #thebigmohawk #mohawkbend #beachwoodbrewing #beerme #burgersandbeer #veganburger #blackvegan #influencer 🥬 🍔 🍺 🇺🇸 ⚽️ (at Mohawk Bend) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzRVneLpRmS/?igshid=ev3zpbulhyz4

The idea was making vegan Jamaican beef patties. But, I got the wrong pastry. I bought phyllo sheets, when I should have gotten a puff pastry (should’ve made my own). So, these are nowhere need a beef patty, but that doesn’t matter because the filling is so good. And the phyllo is dumb flaky. It works. I’ll run it back with a proper dough but for this one time, this is delicious 🤤 | 1809p #vegan #veganbeefpatty #veganprotein #beyondmeat #beefpatty #jamaicanpatties #plantbased #plantbasedpatty #veganuary #testkitchen #phyllo #blackvegan #influencer #99kfollowers 🥬 ♻️ 🇯🇲 💪🏾 🖤 . . . . . The filling: beyond meat ground beef, red bell pepper, onion, onion powder, S+P, cayenne, curry powder, minced garlic, garlic powder, allspice, scotch bonnet, veg stock, aminos, tomato paste, ap flour.

Ohhhhhh yeah, the Nashville Hot Chickin’ Sadwich. So frickin’ delicious. Gardein chickin’, coleslaw, charred scallion ranch, bread and butter pickles. The entire menu is plant based, no meat, no dairy, no eggs, no nothin. Side of fries and a strawberry lemonade made my lunch complete. Swish . Can’t wait until the Toluca Lake VG opens in ‘19 || 1400p #vegan #veggiegrill #plantbased #veganchicken #vegansandwich #gardein #plantbasedsteve #nashvillehotchickin #nashvillehotchicken #veganslaw #eatmoreveggies #crispy #chickin #meatfree #dairyfree #crueltyfree #blackvegan #influencer #99kfollowers ♻️ 🥬 🌱 💪🏾 (at Veggie Grill) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br_ScFZAToW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1omfayh7nypnq

Stopped by Organix to pick up my holiday Wellington order (one mushroom and one turk’y) and you know I had to get some of the zucchini fries. HAD TO! I don’t know what they do to these tings, but I imagine this is what being on droogs feels like || 1500p #eatyourveggies #vegan #plantbasedsteve #friedzucchini #zucchinifries #organix #blackvegan #influencer #99kfollowers 🌱 🥬 💪🏾 🖤 (at Organix) https://www.instagram.com/p/Brv2A1UguAJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mil3aw16o6yn

Vegan potato balls. Filled with beyond meat, onion, red bell pepper, and seasonings.

Potato balls from Portos were my jam…but I don’t eat dead animal now so I haven’t been able to indulge for a while, until now. All it took was a little imagination, starting with a beyond meat patty, half of a red bell pepper, one habanero pepper (should have used 2), 1/4 of an onion, tomato paste and vegetable broth made up the filling. Mashed potatoes and seasoning make up the outer. Scoop up some pots, put some filling in the middle, drop it in the air fryer for 10 minutes….and bobs your uncle! #potatoballs #paparellena #veganpaparellena #croquettes #vegancroquettes #veganpotatoballs #blackvegan #testkitchen #vegan #trapmoneyvegan #plantbased #plantbasedsteve #beyondmeatrecipes #airfryer 🌱 💪🏾 😜🍁🔥🖤👨🏾‍🍳🥔 (at Toluca Lake, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqBzY8JgemQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ez2krqm6f9hd

You know what I always say, a wrap is just a burrito with healthy fillings.

Salute to Bossa Nova, a Brazilian restaurant here in Hollywood that has traditionally been one of my favorites. Before I stopped eating the meats. But, its a Brazilian restaurant, so you wouldn’t think that you could find a great plant-based option, but you can… and unlike a lot of restos around here, it isn’t just a bullshit plate of grilled vegetables and rice. It’s actually a proper meal. The time is really up for all of these places that think they get a participation trophy for just having the obligatory “vegetarian menu” but they need to start offering real full ass meals that are vegetarian and vegan. I’m lucky where I live that this is pretty easy to find, but not always. Real restaurants with real chefs, heads chefs, should have incredible options that have nothing to do with dead animals. Bossa Nova did that shxt! #PowerGrains #BlackBeans #RoastedVegetables #CollardGreens #RoastedCorn #WildMushroom #FingerlingPotatoes #Quinoa #ChipotleCashew #BuddhaBowl #BossaNova #BossaNovaSuperBowl #VeganOption #VegetarianBowl #VegetarianMenu #BlackVegan #PlantBased #PlantBasedSteve #TrapMoneyVegan #thisfeelslikeayelpreview 🖤🌱🌶🧘🏾‍♂️👏🏾👀🥁🇧🇷 (at Bossa Nova Brazilian Cuisine) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo4vrkVgget/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2e5yjm8eohfg

Pulled up on Monty’s for a double Impossible™ Burger and some tater tots. The building is 100% plant-based. The food is incredible. Expensive (the normal vegan tax), but incredible. #vegan #veganburger #foodbeast #foodpost #foodpics #plantbasedburger #eatingfortheinsta #govegan #impossibleburger #blackvegan
