In 2021 I was working 50-60 hour weeks at the post office and eating mostly fast food for convenience. I was always tired and even on my off days I barely had any energy to function. I wasn’t showing up as my best as a husband or a father because I was always tired. I was so frustrated because I felt I was too young to always be so tired. This led me to start to pay more attention to how the foods I ate made me feel afterwards and I came to the conclusion that my diet was why my energy was so low. Being the impulsive person I am I decided to go Plant-based cold turkey to see if that would change things for me. I researched Plantbased recipes and made it a point to make meals without using processed vegan items. I started cooking meals like vegetable soup, plant based chili and mushroom, spinach and cherry tomato pasta. After a week of eating plant-based I felt so much better that I knew I could never go back. I was so excited and amazed by my results that I created my food page @_PlantbasedBrandon on instagram. I wanted to document my journey and to dispel the misconception that vegan food is limited and less flavorful.

Chipotle Lionsmane Tacos

Add 1-2 tbs of olive oil to a pan on medium heat. Add your mushrooms, season with taco seasoning and cook until brown.( About 2-3mins each side) Make sure to press down on the mushrooms periodically while they cook to release some of the moisture from the mushrooms. Add lime juice and adobo sauce, mix thoroughly, turn off heat and set aside for later. 

freshly chopped Cilantro or parsley ( I used parsley)

Cut 2 mangos into small cubes. Dice 1/2 red bell pepper, 1/4 red onion, and 1/2 jalapeño. Roughly chop some parsley. (You need 2-3 tbs) Add all of your ingredients into a bowl including the juice from 1/2 lime and mix thoroughly. Season to taste with salt & pepper to complete the mango salsa.

Make the sauce by adding all ingredients into a small bowl and mix thoroughly. 

Either fry corn tortillas in avocado oil until in a crispy taco shape or just warm until pliable.

Assemble your tacos by adding mushroom first, then the cabbage, followed by mango salsaand lastly Drizzle with the chipotle lime sauce and enjoy!
