This was good! With bearded raspberries instead of shaved strawberries 😊
That sounds amazing! I haven’t tried it with raspberries yet, but I bet that tart sweetness works perfectly here. Love that swap!
Hi! I’ve been looking for a plant protein that’s delicious. I’ve tried tons, but haven’t found one I love. What have you tried and recommended?
Thanks!
I’ve been using Happy Way for a while now, their triple chocolate and vanilla are my favorites (I have a code for 10% off if you want to try them “happysarah”).
Make sure to look for protein powder that combine two sources of plant protein for a more efficient amino acid profile, with at least 20g of protein per 30g of powder 💚
Sarah I download all your recipes and am so very extremely grateful to you! I need to lose weight (25-30 lbs) and was wondering if you have any advice?
Thanks 🙏 Trudy
Hi Trudy, I’m so happy you’re enjoying the recipes! When it comes to weight loss, what really matters is staying in a calorie deficit (using more energy than we take in) for long enough to see the results you’re after. How you get there will look different for everyone, it needs to suit your taste and lifestyle so you can actually stick to it consistently.
A few things I always recommend:
Make sure you’re eating enough protein and fiber. Aim for about 1.6 g of protein per kilo of your ideal weight and at least 35 g of fiber per day.
Drink plenty of water.
Prioritize sleep—when we don’t sleep enough, our body produces more of the hormone ghrelin, which increases hunger and makes us eat more calories.
Start your day with a savory, high-protein breakfast.
Meal prep! It helps so much with staying on track.
Aim for 10,000 steps a day (you can start by adding just 500–1000 more steps than you’re used to).
If you’re choosing recipes from the website, you’re already doing really well. Using the high-protein or lower-calorie filters might help you narrow down the most supportive options for this chapter of your journey.
