Vegan Crystal Spring Rolls. A plant-based recipe to get your taste buds excited, your [pH] balanced and your cells & skin glowing with vibrant energy.
November marks World Vegan Month and I thought it fitting to test out a new recipe in my @ecokitchen.
I think I’m a plant nerd.
I get so excited when my box of Inglenook Organic Veggies are delivered to the house every Wednesday. It’s like Pandora’s Box of health-inducing delights. It also gives me some #FLY time in the kitchen, experimenting and playing, allowing for some mad creativity to run wild and see if I can make plant-based meals über delicious and lots of fun.
A plant-based lifestyle doesn’t have to be boring or restricting. We all LOVE experimenting in the kitchen to create meals that not only make us feel great and more alive, but also taste incredible.
