Who else watched the royal wedding over the weekend?!

I didn’t set my alarm to watch like some of my friends did, but I might have teared up a little while making my lazy Sunday breakfast when Prince Harry and Meghan *finally* embraced.

I milled about the kitchen listening to the light commentary that followed on the news stations all morning, feeling good about the whole affair and the state of the world and all that.

Can we have more moments like that, please?

If you’re having some major royal wedding withdrawals too, it’s cool, because I have a royal meal idea for you this week.

These Sweet Potato & Forbidden Rice Power Bowls with Miso Tahini are the perfect plant-based combination to fuel your extraordinary life!

Triple Berry Banana Power Muffins by Flora & Vino

I used to have a blog called The Vegan Muffin Woman where I only created and shared muffins and cupcake photos and recipes.

Basically anything made in a muffin tin was fair game.

Sometimes when I make muffins now I remember TVMW and I have to laugh.

I remember the struggle to get excited about the same shape every post.

These Triple Berry Banana Power Muffins, though, I wouldn’t mind seeing an a weekly basis.

Golden Beet Protein Pancakes with Easy Raspberry Compote

Fuel with these golden beet protein pancakes made with sweet golden beet and protein powder paired with an easy sugar-free raspberry compote. 

Golden Beet Protein Pancakes with Easy Raspberry Compote These Golden Beet Pancakes with Easy Raspberry Compote weren’t planned.

I was in the process of making regular protein pancakes and that gorgeous golden beet (see photo below) in my produce drawer caught my eye.

And then a cordial conversation with said beet ensued and it went something like this.

“Hello, gorgeous.

You’re stunning.

But I think you’d be even prettier blended in a protein pancake and then smothered in red raspberry sauce.

Say yes?”

…..

I took that as a yes and got to protein pancake-making.

Paprika Power Bowl with Apple Cider Tahini by Flora & Vino

Big bowls of everything are all I want lately!

After I mix everything together with a fork and knife, bits of kale and veg always overflow and my heart aches at the sight of them lying shipwrecked on the countertop.

It’s got texture, crunch, savory and sweet, and a creamy dressing that ties it all together.

Leafy greens, ancient grains, roasted veg, protein packed legumes, hearty nuts, sweet dried fruit, a killer oil-free dressing, and a dusting of seeds!

Do you think I could have fit anything else in there?

Believe me, I tried.
