Do you want to eat plant-based, but dread giving up your favorite treats and snacks? You know they contain dairy, egg and come with added refined sugars and saturated fat, so aren't the healthiest. So the question is, “What can you eat instead?”

I agree that it'll be helpful to have an alternative if those dreaded snack or sugar cravings hit. That’s why I’m excited for today’s episode. I want to share with you my newest favorite cookie to enjoy, and my daughter would agree! I often make these for my family and guests – and they’re so incredibly simple to make that my children help me make them too.

What’s more, these treats are naturally refined-sugar-free and make a tasty healthy snack for adults and children alike. Join me inside this episode and let me show you how tahini and sweet potatoes pair together to form delicious snackable cookies. You can even make these for Labor Day weekend celebration gatherings!

It’s time to check in with my guest Winnona Yi, who first appeared on this podcast when she was just 3 months into her plant-based diet transition. How is she doing now, more than a year later? Recall that prior to this dietary change, she had been eating a regular diet heavy in fast foods, and had many health problems including a skin condition called hidradenitis suppurativa, as well as high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes.

But after she moved to a whole food plant-based diet, her health and her life changed…drastically. And one year later, there are even more positive changes, especially in terms of needing to take less meds and more weight loss. Walk away inspired after listening to this first part of my interview with Winnona in her Follow-Up Guest Interview!

We’ll look at whether you need to be concerned about getting low iron levels when you move to a plant-based diet, and discuss good plant-based sources of iron you can include into your meals.

Right now, you’re already spending quite a bit on groceries weekly, mainly on meats, eggs, and processed foods. Yes, you’re also buying carrots, apples, and other produce items, but it’s not a lot at the moment.
