Kudo Topic: Taste/Flavor

We are on our first batch and have enjoyed them ALL! We got two smoothies this time, and they sure came in handy when I had to run to dog training quickly. I threw it in the Nutri-bullet, and off I ran!

I use one savory bowl for two lunches for hubby, over a grain or potatoes. Hubby loves it, and I love no prep. I put two savory bowls over the potatoes/grains for four lunches, then add some frozen veggies, and he is a happy camper. It takes about 15 minutes to do it all!

I just reordered my next batch. Love it! I thought the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl was great! Give them a try! 😍

The LeafSide meals are part of my plan to save my sanity while eating healthily, and reducing our weight & cholesterol. ✅ Cooking vegan from scratch is very time consuming!

These are definitely at least two meals per packet, even more based on some of the Meal-Mod ideas and extensions included on the LeafSide website. So far my husband can't tell that I've been extending the LeafSide meals, and so far he hasn't been able to tell or hasn't seemed to care that they are vegan or vegetarian, THEY ARE THAT TASTY! 😋 I can see stretching the meals further by adding grains & veggies or protein. We do add some seasoning of our own. We have mostly tried the savory menu.

I'm also adding the savings of no shopping, schlepping, slicing, dicing, or planning. My brain is fried & I'm tired of it all. This plan is a lifesaver. 🛟 I might start cooking, again, and I might not. For now, LeafSide will be filling in the gaps.

I just got back from an 8 day hiking and road trip! 🥾🥾 This is the second year we've used LeafSide meals for our travels, and they are hands down the healthiest and tastiest meal option out there! The Sweet-bowls feuled my husband and I on our 12 mile hike. Never stop making these meals LeafSide! 💕👏🏻🙏🏻

Crystal's story (on LeafSide's website) is very inspiring, because I have some of the same issues.

I have many health issues: heart failure, high blood pressure, and diabetes worries. They run in my family and being African American, am more prone to this condition. I've also had a heart attack, and a bypass, and most recently a stroke! I struggle to be healthy: Here it is very hard to do a lot of prep or cooking. I'm familiar with vegetarian and vegan diet, I've always preferred veganism because cheese and milk makes me sick. I think I'm lactose sensitive plus I don't want to ingest food meant for baby cows. 🐮 And I've seen films about what happens to animals used for meat, it 's disgusting!

I'm living in an independent senior facility, but the food is very bad — even the vegetarian options they offer are still full of cheese, fat, and salt, and too many desserts. I live in a small room with my own bathroom, a microwave, and fridge, but no kitchen — which makes meal prep very difficult. And having to wash dishes in the bathroom is no fun.

So your food has been a godsend for me: Easy to prepare, tasty, and no animals harmed! 💚 I also need to watch my weight, especially being disabled and having to use a walker when I can, and a wheelchair. You don't want to be overweight trying to get around on these devices. They are already for me hard to use, It takes a lot of energy! And I am no spring chicken!!

I like the videos too with very helpful information on additional things you can add to the dishes and hints on prep. And things to use for prep!!

Thank you so much for making this available to the public!!

We tried these two meals today from LeafSide and they were remarkably good. 😋

I was surprised, I didn’t expect them to be as well seasoned (read bold and good flavor). I always add a little chef magic to my food and these required none and I added very little (for those who know it was adding spicy/heat to the Sweet Potato Dal Soup).

These are #wholefoodplantbased dehydrated foods, high in protein and fiber also highlighted by Dr. Greger. As far as pre-made meals go they are quite inexpensive, and lightweight, making them great for travel and hiking (if a source of hot water is available).

This is a fan post and not a paid sponsorship 🙂

Honestly I was floored. I’ve been living on Fire Road since I’m in PhD life right now and wanted to change it up. Also I’ve been avoiding Amy’s bc of the labor ugliness. This is such a happy find!
