Nutrition is a complex subject, and although everyone claims to be an expert these days, very few people actually have the necessary knowledge to guide themselves or those around them towards a better, healthier and tastier life. The internet is the ultimate source of information about anything and everything, but unless you have the requisite scientific background, it would be impossible to tell the wrong or misleading information from the authentic bits, which is one of the prime reasons why dietary myths are being created all the time. On that note, here are three popular dietary myths that are just not true.

Recipes Vegan Easy

It’s my goal to help you approach vegan cooking with a sense of ease and confidence.

Hummus is in fact ridiculously easy to make – if you can open a tin and turn on a blender there’s really no excuse. I had two huge and amazing breakfast tacos: The Tofu Ren (tofu scramble, jalepenos, garlic, sauteed onions) & The Timmy (vegan chorizo, red & black organic beans, shredded lettuce, locally grown tomatoes).vegan recipes

As for tacos, the Pirate Tacos — portabella mushroom and avocado tacos with vegan cheese — have me drooling. All my recipes are 8 ingredients or less, not including salt, pepper and water. When I met with the peeps to do the blog change they asked, do you want to focus more on community aspect …

Fallen chocolate cake is a moist dessert that is rather like a supermoist, extra-rich brownie that is squishy in the centre. Or you can omit the cream cheese altogether (but of course, it is much tastier with it!).

Salmon fillets are the most commonly used cut of the fish, and for good reason: removing the pin bones is simple, and the cut lends itself to all methods of cooking. Giada prefers whole-wheat spaghetti for its nutty flavor; she loads it up with fresh vegetables and fish flavored with lemon and herbs for a light, healthy meal.

I have shared with those behind me, in hopes they will see the support out on coming with those neat and fabulious recipes. Whisk scallion, soy sauce, vinegar, honey and ginger in a medium bowl until the honey is dissolved. As a general rule cook salmon approximately 10 minutes per inch of thickness and turn only once.
