Healthy Vegan Recipes With Low Fat Content
What ingredients are we looking at using in low fat vegan recipes to maintain healthy levels of unsaturated fat and keep saturated fat low?
You will find a lot of beans and lentils, as these are a great source of protein with a naturally low fat content. Check out this healthy vegan lasagna, which uses lentils instead of meat, and a tofu mix instead of cheese.
For comparison, 1 cup of lentils contains only 0.8g fat, while 1 cup of lean mincemeat contains 21g! As for cheese, 100g cheddar contains 33g fat and 100g tofu, only 4.8g! Seems like the vegan option is a no-brainer!
You will also, of course, find lots of vegetables, which are full of vitamins and fibre, meaning they keep you full for a long time and are low in calories.
Veg can be used to bulk up a dish while keeping the fat and calorie count low!

Best Homemade Vegan Butter
This creamy, spreadable Vegan Butter requires only 6 simple ingredients and a blender. Spread it on toast, vegetables, baked potatoes, corn on the cob, and more! It also happens to be oil-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and gluten-free.
Though prepackaged vegan butter can be purchased at many grocery stores, it is always loaded with oil and fat which most whole food plant-based folks are avoiding. After all, we are trying to improve our health, right?
Thats why I decided to look around at healthy vegan butter options online, and I stumbled upon one made with cauliflower from Cooking With Plants. Their recipe called for psyllium husks which I didnt have and honestly didnt even know what it was, so I decided to mess around in the kitchen a bit with different ingredients.

How Do You Make Good Pizza Dough From Scratch
Making bread can feel overwhelming. There’s so many terms to learn and so many different ways to make the same thing.
Don’t ever let bread intimidate you! It’s not scary. Especially not this recipe.
First, we’re going to proof our yeast. I know, I know, the package says active yeast, why do we need to activate it?
Well the first thing is that some yeast can be already inactive when you buy it. It’s just like a bad batch. Or it could be too old.
Activating it first means you don’t have to waste all your ingredients! All proofing the yeast means is we’re putting it in a bowl or cup with the warm water and the sugar, mixing it up and letting it sit for 5-10 minutes.
If it starts to get foamy at the top, that means your yeast is active and ready to be dough!
So while the yeast proofs, measure out your flour.
