For a decadent breakfastor dessertthese vegan banana and oat crpes are a must.

I only have one other vegan crepe recipe on the blog and although that recipe is delicious it took me at least five crpes to get it right. However, I really wanted to try a different vegan crpe recipe that was a lot easier to make. Thats when I discovered this recipe for sweet banana crpes on YouTube from an account called nutrition refined. As soon as I saw the video I could tell that it would be really easy to make and that these crpes were not going to give me a lot of trouble, and I was right! I, of course, adapted the crpes slightly to my own liking and kept them entirely gluten-free. (Make sure to use specific gluten-free oats if you are very sensitive.)

The batter comes together really quickly in the blender. The finer you make it the better the texture of the crpes. For this recipe, I simply just put the oats in the blender first and whizzed them up until a fine flour and then added the rest of the ingredients over the top. Once all the ingredients were in the blender, just blend again until the batter forms.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do and I promise that if you struggle with making crpes like I did this recipe will be very easy for you. As usual, the recipe is refined sugar-free, dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free, and delicious.

These healthy, vegan tofu nuggets are not only oil-free and super crispy, but they also have the perfect chewy texture! For this recipe, the tofu is baked in the oven instead of fried. This also makes the whole process of preparing them much easier!

To make the tofu nuggets, you first let them soak in a wet mixture so they dont dry up during baking. The wet mixture is simply a vegan buttermilk, which you can make by combining soy milk and lemon juice. Soy milk works best for this as its richest in proteins.

The wet mixture is also what makes the dry mixture stick to the tofu. For the dry mixture, you can use any variation of bread crumbs, nutritional yeast, almond meal, shredded coconut, and spices. When you add the tofu cubes to the dry mixture, it helps to use a fork and tap it on the bowl a few times. This way, the excess soy milk stays in the wet mixture bowl and doesnt clump the dry mixture.

The trick to getting these healthy vegan tofu nuggets super crispy without using oil is a high oven temperature. So before you even begin breading the nuggets, preheat your oven to 230C/450F.

When you flip the tofu nuggets halfway through baking, be careful and again, use a fork. Gently lift each nugget with the fork so that the breadcrumb coating doesnt remain stuck to the baking paper.

You can totally serve these tofu nuggets on their own as a little snack with some bbq sauce or ketchup. They also make a great topping for salad bowls as you can see below. Alternatively, you can add them to a wrap or as taco filling. Or, you can make slightly bigger nuggets and use them as burger patties!

Notes

You could also use any other plant-based milk, but soy milk works best to make vegan buttermilk because it has a high amount of protein.

Feel free to experiment with the ingredients for the dry mixture. You can use: breadcrumbs, nutritional yeast, almond meal, ground hazelnuts/walnuts, quinoa, hemp seed hearts

Rapper Jermaine Dupri, Atlanta-based vegan restaurant Slutty Vegan, and plant-based brand Impossible Foods recently partnered to launch a year-long campaign to feed communities across the country as they exercise their right to vote. The Votenik event aims to make the voting experience interactive and fun. It kicked off today at a voting site in Atlanta, GA, where Dupri and Slutty Vegan founder Pinky Cole were on site with the Slutty Vegan food truck to give out complimentary Sloppy Toppy burgers, which feature Impossible Burger patties topped with jalapeos, vegan cheese, caramelized onions, lettuce, tomato, and Slut Sauce on a vegan Hawaiian bun.

This is the next step in making sure that everyone gets out and votes, Cole said. This is the most productive way to get our voices heard, and we are beyond grateful to be launching this initiative with both Jermaine Dupri and Impossible Foods.

Earlier this year, just before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down businesses, Slutty Vegan planned to set off on a 50-city food truck tour to help register customers to vote while they waited in line for food. With the new Votenik initiative, voters will be offered hand sanitizer as they arrive and will be asked to stand six feet apart. The Votenik event plans to stop in Washington DC, New York, and Philadelphia, among other places.

The Votenik event is the latest initiative of Coles Pinky Cole Foundation, which is currently supporting communities during COVID-19 through various initiatives that include paying the rent for other small businesses in the Metro-Atlanta area and providing meals to Atlantas essential workers.

Hey, youre already okay not ordering the chili cheese fries. But now that youve swapped meat and mozz for a plant-forward lifestyle, you may be wondering how else you can keep more green in the bank. The best news? By going vegan, youre likely already saving bigwithout even trying as animal products from the seafood counter to the butcher to fancy cheese can cost a pretty penny. To help you out even moreand, we confess, steal a few ideas for ourselveswe reached out to nutritionists for their best tips to slash costs at the supermarket (or more likely these days, in your virtual grocery cart).

These are foods that you cook with often, are not very expensive, and that you enjoy. These are often foods that are minimally processed, can be purchased in bulk / larger quantities and are not very expensive, advises Lisa Hugh, MSHS, RD, LDN, CLT, Food Sensitivity Expert,SingleIngredientGroceries.com.

For instance, in the grains/complex carbs category, these might be foods like potatoes, brown rice, and barley. In the vegetable department, this might be frozen mixed vegetables, fresh cabbage, tomatoes, and cucumbers. Once youve established your staple foods across categories, do some time comparison shopping to determine which stores or online grocers sell them for the best price and shop accordingly.

This goes hand-in-hand with the advice above. Many foods that are naturally vegan are also some of the most affordable foods too. Think legumes, whole grains, veggies and fruit, shares Bri Bell, RD, Frugal Minimalist Kitchen. A plant-based diet starts to add up when we're relying on a lot of ready-made vegan food substitutes for animal products like faux meats, cheeses, and butter. When making your staples category, try to group products like vegan ice cream, plant-based meat, and other pricy vegan foods into a splurge category, and allow yourself one or two items a week.

My favorite trick is skipping the name brands and going for the no-name or the store brand. I find that these tend to be the cheapest and tend to be on higher or lower shelves not on eye-level, offers Mitchelle Wright, RDN,You have to remember that when you are buying name brands you are actually paying for advertising, commercials, product testing and so much more. Trust us, when you dig into those fully loaded black bean nachos or vegan enchiladas, youll never be able to tell if the beans were budget buys or designers.

Assuming you feel safe grocery shopping right now, consider Asian markets in your area as a great way to load up on tasty, affordable vegan fare. They have excellent prices on fresh produce as well as some pantry staples such as rice noodles and tofu. A week's worth of fresh produce works out to be about $20-$30 for per person there, compared to easily over $60 at a regular grocery store, says Bell.

Crispy tofu with spicy brown sauce and mango salsafor dinner? Ah, were so glad you suggested it.

Raise your hand if you had to toss that fancy tempeh because you didnt get to it by its expiration date or you watched that beautiful bag of arugula wilt in your fridge Were raising our hand and were not proud. You can freeze a lot of things. I hear from my patients all the time that they end up wasting a lot of food, especially produce because it starts to go bad before they use it, says Hugh. If fresh food is on the verge of going bad I freeze it in a hurry. In addition to fresh fruits and veggies, rice, beans, soups, stews, sauces, and more also freeze well.

Currently, Hugh tells The Beet she has the following in her freezer: Fresh cilantro, fresh thyme, red onion, and a bag of shredded cabbage/coleslaw mix. Most things can be frozen in reusable plastic containers, ziplock bags, or even the bag they came in (coleslaw mix, baby carrots, spinach/baby spinach), she shares. Sturdier herbs like rosemary and thyme can be frozen as is while softer herbs like basil and parsley in oil or water in ice cube trays.

A windowsill is all you need for fresh herbs and even other fresh veggies like mushrooms. And if you have a yard, get planting to keep more green in both your wallet and also the table. We grow scallions, thyme and mint in our garden, says Hugh. We don't have a lot of time for gardening but these are pretty easy to maintain and are really enjoyable.

This isnt true for all markets, but for many people, purchasing pantry items from tomato paste to vegetable stock may be most affordable when you shop online. From experience, buying vegan nonperishable grocery items online not only saves me money but also time, says Wright. I do this for most of my non-perishable vegan products. The essence is these companies can buy larger quantities of a particular product, thus it is usually less expensive and it is delivered straight to my doorstep.

7 Ways to Save Money on Your Vegan Grocery List, According to Nutritionists - The Beet

This week, vegan actress Natalie Portman took to Instagram to voice her support for defunding the police as a measure to prevent police violence against Black people. When I first heard #defundthepolice, I have to admit my first reaction was fear, Portman said. My whole life, police have made me feel safe. But thats exactly the center of my white privilege: the police make me as a white woman feel safe, while my Black friends, family, and neighbors feel the opposite: police make them feel terror. And for good reason. Police are the sixth leading cause of death for Black men in this country.

When I first heard #defundthepolice, I have to admit my first reaction was fear. My whole life, police have made me feel safe. But thats exactly the center of my white privilege: the police make me as a white woman feel safe, while my black friends, family and neighbors feel the opposite: police make them feel terror. And for good reason. Police are the 6th leading cause of death for black men in this country. These are not isolated incidents. They are patterns and part of the system of over-policing of black Americans. Reforms have not worked. Minneapolis, where George Floyd was murdered, is one of the most progressive police forces in the country, having undergone extensive anti-bias training. I am grateful to the leaders in the @mvmnt4blklives who have made us question the status quo. And who have made us imagine, what a world could be like in which we invested in nourishing people; (in their education, healthcare, environment, shelter) rather than putting all of our money into punishment. Ive gotten to the age in my life, where if my gut feels uncomfortable, I take the situation as wrong. But this concept initially made me uncomfortable because I was wrong. Because the system that makes me feel comfortable is wrong. #defendblacklives#defundthepolice Swipe right for additional resources via @theslacktivists

Portman explained that solving the underlying issues with the police force in the United States requires more than procedural reforms such as implicit bias training. Minneapolis, where George Floyd was murdered, is one of the most progressive police forces in the country, having undergone extensive anti-bias training, Portman said. I am grateful to the leaders in the Movement for Black Lives who have made us question the status quo. And who have made us imagine what a world could be like in which we invested in nourishing peoplein their education, healthcare, environment, shelterrather than putting all of our money into punishment.

Portmans Instagram post also included an explanation of how defunding the police would allow for investment in Black communities and specialized first responders such as mental health professionals while reducing police presence in communities of color and demilitarizing officers to reduce incidents of police violence. Ive gotten to the age in my life, where if my gut feels uncomfortable, I take the situation as wrong, Portman said. But this concept [of defunding the police] initially made me uncomfortable because I was wrong. Because the system that makes me feel comfortable is wrong.

For her birthday on June 9, Portman pledged to match up to $100,000 in donations to A New Way of Lifea nonprofit founded by social-justice activist Susan Burton which helps women break the cycle of entrapment in the criminal justice system.

Vegan Actress Natalie Portman Speaks Out in Support of Defunding the Police to Save Black Lives - VegNews

words Alexa Wang

We find that our lives, more so in our current age, have become consumed by the pursuit of finances, and overwhelmed by technology. In times that are incredibly straining, both physically and mentally, it can be important to just take a moment, take a deep breath, and relax.

Many people forget the importance of introspective reflection, and by taking a minute, or an hour, to meditate every day, you can not only calm your mind but also boost your productivity and increase your threshold for stress.

It is more important now than ever to make use of the Eastern philosophies and doctrines which teach better mental clarity and a way to move forward without bearing the perpetual signs of stress and anxiety.

Whether you decide to subscribe to a specific doctrine or meditative practice, there are many ways. From the Taoist meditation of Tai Chi, originating in the mountains of China, to the Zen Buddhist sitting practice. Zen Buddhism originated from Chan, the Chinese word for stillness, somewhat over a thousand years ago.

Zen Buddhism focuses entirely on mental clarity and weighs heavily on the importance of being still and experiencing periods of nothingness in your life to make you more prone to solving stressful situations and resolving things you ordinarily wouldnt be able to due to high levels of stress.

More common to India and in Tibet is the practice of beaded meditation. By posturing correctly and in one hand gently thumbing through a bracelet of beads, you can gradually sink into a very deep introspective meditation. If you visit this site, there are different kinds of meditative beads that are a sure-fire and proven way to achieve introspection and the proverbial oneness. Beaded meditation is part of a style of meditation known as an active meditation. Active meditation is one of the most widespread practices in the world and its permutations permeate every philosophical doctrine in the Orient.

From walking meditation to the aforementioned Tai Chi, from Kung fu to Jujutsu, active meditation is very popular and still to this day highly practiced meditative praxis. Spoken highly in many Eastern philosophical religions, it has recently begun to permeate the West, hence we have seen a huge rise in those attending both Yoga classes and Tai Chi classes in America, England, and across Europe, and around the world. It is no surprise at times of such stress that we find ourselves turning inwards to address our problems.

This perhaps is the largest and most popular form of meditation, another that has permeated all of the Oriental philosophical doctrines. Sitting meditation was one of the first teachings of the Buddha, and is still carried on to this day, used by people from all walks of society. It can be hard to calm the mind, but to do so you must first persevere through the suffering you will experience. The suffering, whether mental or physical, is a sign of growth. By sitting completely still and opening yourself up to the world, mentally and physically, emptying your mind of thoughts, you will begin to suffer. You will notice pain, irritation, and an overwhelming sense of agitation and need to leave, but you must let it stay as it is and be. Eventually, the sensation will pass, you will feel as if you have no hands or feet and are floating.

This can take a while and many weeks or months, or even years of practice. By sitting through the suffering, you are conditioning your body and your mind to be more tolerant of potential problems or threats and will be better aided in dealing with stressful situations. The sitting meditation not only benefits you in stressful situations but will help bring order to a chaotic life and remove any chaotic inclinations you may have. Whether you suffer from a form of OCD or anxiety, sitting meditation can be greatly beneficial and has been proven by top psychologists and philosophers to have a strong positive effect on poor mental wellbeing. By sitting only for an hour a day, or even half an hour, you can greatly improve your life in ways you couldnt earlier imagine.

If you struggle very much with sitting still it could be a good thing for you to attend a meditation retreat or classes, or even consult a monk directly who can take on a role as master, and you as their disciple. By approaching a monk, you must be ready to adhere strictly to their doctrine, and also be wary of who you approach.

In recent years there has been a trend of pseudo-religious teachers asking for money in exchange for so-called enlightenment but these are no more than a cult. Consult your Buddhist or Taoist, or even Shinto societies locally, and ask them to put you in touch with a good Master.

Meditation Techniques to Calm the Mind - Flux Magazine

When I first heard about meditation, I think it was on some kind of early 80s sitcom, with people wearing unitards and scarves and chanting ohm as the laugh track blared. But, now meditation and mindfulness are getting serious attention. Data from the 2017 National Health Interview Survey found that U.S. adults use of meditation tripled between 2012 and 2017.

The National Institute of Health defines meditation as a mind and body practice that has a long history of use for increasing calmness and physical relaxation, improving psychological balance, coping with illness, and enhancing overall health and well-being. Research has shown that engaging in meditation practice has positive health benefits, such as reducing blood pressure, anxiety and depression, and insomnia.

If you are not sure where to start with meditation, the good news is, theres an app for that. The New York Times reports that the apps Headspace and Calm are great choices for people interested in starting a mindful meditation practice. The University of Massachusetts Center for Mindfulness points out that meditation apps can be useful self-care tools, but you certainly shouldnt rely on them in lieu of advice from a medical or mental health professional.

'Did I miss anything?' Vermont man goes on 75-day silent meditation retreat during pandemic - WPTZ

Medical staff at Hartford Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut, have long been believers in meditation as a powerful integrative wellness method. However, many of the staffs issues with the use of meditation in a clinical environment revolve around the consistency of meditations, the variety of meditations and the scalability of meditation.

THE PROBLEM

In looking for a way to provide consistency to patients, Hartford Hospital sought to partner with a local company with expertise in both meditation and technology that thought in a similar way to the hospitals staff.

HIMSS20 Digital

Our partnership requirements included four things, said Dr. Eric R. Secor, chief of integrative medicine at Hartford Hospital. First, provider and practitioner involvement in the process. Second, high-grade, consistent meditations designed using evidence-based rubric. Third, ease of access. And fourth, ability to track the patients use of the meditations.

Hospital staff need to understand who is using meditation, how often they are using meditations and which ones they are using. In addition, the ability to collect data on outcomes was a critical decision-making factor for staff.

PROPOSAL

Hartford Hospital went with MediGrade, a vendor of machine learning-powered mobile health technology designed to reshape pain therapy and enhance self-care.

Dr. Eric R. Secor, Hartford Hospital

The company was very proactive in working with granting agencies such as the Connecticut Innovations, the state of Connecticuts venture arm, to raise funds with the goal of collecting data, Secor explained. In my 25 years in integrative medicine, we have seen a wide variety of breadth and depth of experience of folks who wanted to provide meditations, whether it be in hospital, in the ambulatory setting or in group settings. All these folks, although well-meaning, had such a wide diversity in experience and certifications that it was very difficult to provide a consistent meditation experience.

The nice thing about the mobile health platform, he added, is once its built and deployed, anyone within the hospital, in the ambulatory setting or at home can use the same, consistent meditation no matter where they are being seen throughout the health system.

MEETING THE CHALLENGE

Our app, which is now in a clinical pilot, eliminates the dependency on individualized meditation facilitators and the logistics of hosting group meditation events, Secor said. Our app provides us with a reliable, consistent, data-driven solution that allows us to solve the issues and bridge the gap.

To start, staff has deployed the m-health, machine learning meditation app to patients who are being treated for chronic pain, specifically neck pain, back pain, neuropathy and migraine headache. A future integration with Hartford Hospitals Epic EHR is in the early planning stages. Staff also is piloting bringing in telehealth access into Epic MyChart Plus to broaden use on the patient end.

RESULTS

Secor is in the process of writing the next innovations grant and preparing to analyze clinical pilot data.

Weve learned a lot about not only partnering with the folks on the digital meditation side, but also who are the champions for meditation within our system, he said. This grant had two big phases. Phase one was to build and deploy a white-labelled app within Hartford Healthcare, which we have achieved. Phase two was to launch a feasibility pilot, which is underway.

Now there is widespread interest in the digital delivery of meditation across the organization. In the process of building the app, it was surprising to Secor that there were more interested parties among more subspecialists than he ever thought possible.

Just in the process of hearing about the app, downloading the app and trying the app, we generated interest from specialists in addiction, orthopedics, oncology, womens health and migraine headache, he noted. Our migraine center is now interested in customizing some aspect of the app in their practice for their patients.

ADVICE FOR OTHERS

Partner with reputable people who understand how health systems operate and are reliable business partners, Secor advised. Your partner should possess expertise in delivering a high-quality application, but also offer evidence-based rubric in their writing that includes provider and patient input, high-quality voiceover talent, and custom-composed ambient music. Your partner should be able to edit, update and change your app with agility, and be flexible.

This movement is advancing Hartford Hospitals patients ability to become even more active members on their own wellness team, Secor concluded.
