How to Cook with Plants to Make Your Meals More Nutritious with Chef Lisa Lyne

We know our diet is critical to our health. So many physicians and nutritionists talk about the gut microbiome nowadays and how what we feed ourselves determine the bacteria, fungi, and other organisms that live in our gut and allow us to absorb nutrients. 

One consistency in the health and nutrition world is eating more plants, especially a diverse variety of plants.  Diving into plant-based cooking can be overwhelming and daunting if you are not a cook or if you haven't used plants much in cooking before.

This past weekend for the Weekend Wellness Hour show, I interviewed Lisa Lyne to explore easier ways to incorporate plants into our daily cooking and meals.  Lisa is a chef, gardener, storyteller, holistic health coach, certified cycling instructor, gym rat, vegan, avid reader, friend of all animals and lover of good food and wine. 

She graduated from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition ten years ago. While attending classes at IIN, she also completed a Culinary Arts program through the State University of Brockport in NY. She became vegan because she felt it was the right thing to do for the animals, the planet, and her body. Her goal is to motivate people to eat more delicious plant-based foods and help them navigate the vegan world.

We discuss some common ideas that cause people to avoid plant-based cooking, whether it's not enough protein or becoming hungry too often to not getting enough vitamin B12.  Lisa has suggestions for all of these fears and we go into some ideas for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  

Please join us for this conversation to learn more how to incorporate more plants into your cooking to improve your life and wellbeing!  Join us on this delicious journey!
