🌱Vegan Fitness with Kate Galley 🌱

Welcome to another exciting episode of the Whole Food Vegan Podcast, where we bring you varied, tasty, easy-to-prepare, and nutritious whole food plant-based meals. No crap, no agenda.

This week, we had the pleasure of chatting with Kate Galley, all the way from Australia, about food, nutrition, and vegan fitness. 🌍💪

Meet Kate Galley:
Kate, a dedicated personal trainer and vegan, shared her inspiring journey from a high-protein, low-carb diet to embracing a vegan lifestyle after watching the documentary Cowspiracy. Her switch wasn't just about health but aligning her actions with her values. 🌱

Key Highlights:

  • Vegan Journey: From eating up to 21 egg whites a day to discovering a balanced, protein-rich vegan diet.
  • Misconceptions Debunked: Fear of losing muscle or gaining fat? Kate experienced none of these issues and maintained her fitness.
  • Protein Sources: Legumes, tofu, tempeh, edamame, lentils, chickpeas, and nuts form her diverse protein-rich diet.
  • Meal Prep Tips: Kate emphasizes prepping versatile components like hummus, kale slaw, and sweet potato chickpea burgers to create quick, nutritious meals.
  • Personal Training: While her passion lies in coaching vegans, Kate continues to work with all clients, promoting a healthy, plant-based lifestyle.

Kate’s Top Tips:


  1. Start Simple: Begin with meals that are almost vegan and swap out ingredients like plant milk or tofu.
  2. Balance Your Plate: Ensure a mix of fibrous and starchy veggies, plant protein, and good fats.
  3. Stay Confident: Don’t let one recipe flop discourage you—experiment and find what works best for you.

Quick Recipes:

  1. Tofu Ricotta: Blend firm tofu with garlic powder, onion powder, lemon, salt, white miso, and nutritional yeast for a delicious addition to salads or baked veggies.
  2. Nutritious Bowls: Combine leafy greens, baked veggies, lentils, and a tasty dressing like tahini or hummus for a quick, balanced meal.
