Comments Off on Soy free, Vegan ground ‘beef’

This recipe was sent to me by a friend who happens to know that I don’t love soy and avoid it as much as possible. It’s so nice to have friends who are on the look out for healthy, allergy-free friendly options that suit not only our health needs, but our personal beliefs as well.  So here’s a soy free, vegan friendly ground “beef” recipe found on Vegnews.

As the author suggests, this recipe will work great in place of any standard ground beef needs, including on top of fresh gluten-free pasta or lasagna, tacos, salads and more. I’ve linked out to the full recipe below, so be sure to check it out and let me know your thoughts once you make it!

You’ll never guess what the ‘beef’ is made from. I love inspired chefs who figure out how to create healthy and yummy alternatives based upon personal beliefs and/or health restrictions!

One quick note – I would switch out the Braggs for Coconut Aminos to be truly soy free. Enjoy!

 Why we love Thunderbird – well, first, we haven’t tasted one we didn’t love! Not only are they handy and allergy-free friendly, they’ve literally saved us from a low-sugar driven faint spell. Well, it wasn’t quite that drastic, but they certainly helped stave off a cranky fit due to hunger pangs. Grab any of their 6+ delish bars and rest assured you will love any of their healthy, allergy-free friendly bars wrapped in eco-friendly wrappers.

I find them super handy to keep in my bags in case I find myself hungry at a sporting event, conference, travels, etc. and that inconvenient hunger pang hits when there are little (if any) allergy-free options around. My fave is the cashew fig because it’s not too sweet, and with the dates as a base, its moist, soft and totally satisfies! But with flavors ranging from Cashew Fig Carrot, Sweet Lemon Rain Dance, Cocao Hemp Walnut to name a few, these bars are sure to please every palette.

Good food, that is good for you and our pretty little planet. How can you go wrong?

In their words: Thunderbird Energetica specializes in creating epic tasting whole food energy bars. Containing uniquely pure and highly powerful ingredients, Thunderbird bars provide consumers with conveniently packaged, nutrient dense, plant-based goodness. Each bar is meticulously handmade using the finest and freshest available whole foods that Mother Earth has to offer.
