This looks easy and apparently is really good for diabetics! (Just add healthy toppings, skip the cheese or use a dairy free version. You can make your own using the recipe linked in the crust recipe).

I'm going to make it later. I just got sent the recipe! I'll let you know.
I might wait actually until I make the Sunflower cheese which I was getting ready to make tomorrow.
(I think a whole-food non-animal diet is best; the vegan diet does allow refined and ultra-processed foods that include no animal-derived ingredients.)
Good Asian-inflected stir-fry, with a little help from the frozen-food section. This dish came out very well indeed: tasty, a variety of textures, excellent matchup to recipe checklist.
Another problem with highly processed foods: they generally contain (among other additives, like refined sugar, preservatives, food coloring, "natural" flavoring, and extra salt) emulsifiers.
I see this as another reason to avoid refined and highly processed foods. More and more it seems that a whole-food diet that has a good distribution of vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, grains, and the like is the best approach.
^ This spinach chapati recipe is WFPB, vegan, and most of all, healthy! It's also quite easy to make, though slightly more tedious than regular chapatis because of the additional cooking step.
If we ate mostly plant based diets, nature would get around 75% of the planet's fertile land back. Our oceans would recover too. Simplest solution for carbon capture, natural world, climate resilience, food chain preservation & biodiversity. A massive step to a sustainable and safer future for humans.
Studies show that shifting to a plant-based food system would release fertile land the size of combining the entire United States, China, the European Union, and Australia.

The basis of science is when we discover new data, we have to modify our position. Even when we don't like the data. Even if the data supports health benefits from a lifestyle we might not practice, like healthy #vegan eating.
8 times more more effective blood at killing prostate cancer cells on a #wfpb protocol.
Reversal of prostate cancer growth in patients under a WFPB protocol.
Blood that barely impacted breast cancer cells became blood that wiped out breast cancer cell samples on a WFPB #plantbased protocol.
etc. etc.

You are sounding like you need the data I've provided to not be true. Hence you want to quibble about figures for #wfpb eating protocols. Like is it 6 times better, or 8 times better etc. It's better is the point.
Exact figures will always depend on the individual, the before diet, the protocol diet, and the cancers in question. The data supports wfpb being better, far far better.
If you want me to throw out 15years of in depth nutrition research in favour of your position you have to bring more to the table than calling my position bullshit and saying you spent a few minutes on pub med.
If you bring me some studies showing people on a healthy #wfpb diet had their blood drawn and tested for efficacy in vitro against cancer cells, then they were moved to a Standard Americanised Diet, blood drawn again and the S.A.D. diet gave them massively enhanced cancer cell fighting blood, which returned to baseline after going back to #wfpb - then that would be something to balance your position with some credible data.
2cups freekeh grains, 2 cups lentils.
Mix in load of spices.
2 tins chopped tomatoes.
5 cups water.
Rough cut veg and greens -kale, spinach.
7mins, instant pot on high.
I threw 500g of mixed beans (10 types) in a container and added water to them sunday night. By morning, monday they had doubled in size pretty much, but the important part is the cooking time drops and is much closer together for the different bean varieties and closer to the black rice cooking time I wanted to pair with.
I stirred a lot of spices and chili into the rice, then added 750 ml of water. Stir in all of the beans and water. Add lots of fresh and frozen veg, give it another good stir.
The pot would be maybe too full if the beans hadn't already been soaked, but they've already increased in size and properly stirred the rice will fill the gaps in between things.
Then about 8-10 minutes in the instant pot on high should be enough with natural pressure release.
My favourite way to cook mushrooms, sliced in a pan with tamari or soy sauce, maybe some chili. Simple delicious. Great for adding to all sorts that way, including salads.
Mushrooms appear to have unique nutritional benefits not replaced by eating other food. I'm preserving here some self motivation for simple mushroom dishes.
Put wholewheat pasta or noodles on.
Sliced mushrooms into a large pan or wok.
big glug of tamari or soy sauce. (the savoury umami taste makes the mushrooms excellent)
can add sliced chilies, ginger garlic spices etc.
cover with lid, want it to stay liquid.
Add stirfy veg towards the end it will contribute more tasty liquids too as it cooks if covered.
Fresh mushrooms release a lot of liquid, but they also absorb some liquid back in over cooking duration too. Meaning spices, herbs, tamari, veggy flavours etc all combine to give them a rich layered taste when the mushrooms have plenty of liquids available.
Lift the mushroom + veggies with a slotted spoon / spatula etc so they dress the pasta and salad but don't make it totally swim with too much juices.
Here's the meal assembled. Pretty quick to make, very tasty, and really healthy.
