Chef Monique Starks Daytime Vegan

 

My name is Monique and welcome to Daytime Vegan! I am a chef & health mentor. I create delicious global inspired vegan recipes to encourage you to eat more plant-based foods, even if you’re not 100% vegan!

I started this lifestyle in order to heal my disease, Endometriosis, and my Ovarian Cysts.
Adding more whole plant foods to my diet, & decreasing the amount of meat & processed foods I consume, was the best decision I could have made for my health. Daytime Vegan focuses on nutrition, not calories. Consuming mostly Whole Plant Foods on a daily basis is key to good health.

  • Pasta with Lion's Mane Mushrooms, Sorrel Leaves, Garlic, & Sundried Tomatoes.⁣ -⁣ I absolutely love pasta, but I've realized I don't post many pasta recipes. I think I do it subconsciously because the west has done such a great job at demonizing carbs, particularly rice and pasta, that it seems no one eats it anymore! I plan to share more pasta recipes this year for those of you who are obsessed with it like me!⁣ -⁣ I made this pasta dish about a year ago and never got to share it with you all because finding Lion's Mane Mushrooms is no easy task! I don't think they are mainstream mushrooms yet, so I can only get them from one farmer in Atlanta and I always get to his stand late so he sells them all to this other guy who buys ALL of his Lion's Mane Mushrooms EVERY TIME. I want to fight this guy! Seriously, he never leaves me any and I can't get up at the crack of dawn to drive to a farmers market for some mushrooms. I like sleep.⁣ -⁣ These mushrooms are awesome, though. SUPER meaty and delicious. I plan to share this recipe with you all if I ever get my hands on another Lion's Mane Mushroom.⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ #healthystart #healthyfoods #blackgirlswhoblog #blavityfoodie #healthyisthenewskinny #healthyfamily #healthycooking #healthytips #browngirlbloggers #healthyeatinghabits #healthyrecipe #weightlossgoals #weightlossfood #bbgtransformation #myfitnessjourney #blackbloggers #blackfoodie #bloggerlifestyle⁣ #brownsugarsocial #bloggerlove #bloggerslife #blackblogger #atlbloggers #atlantabloggers⁣ #healthyrecipe #healthycooking #healthyeatinghabits #healthymeals #blkcreatives #blackgirls

I was bombarded with so many messages requesting the recipe, so here it is!⁣ -⁣ Two of the cheeses I use are from last week's post, Vegan Cheddar Cheese Sauce and Garlic and Herb Cream Cheese. Check out the blog post to see what the other two cheeses are!⁣ -⁣ I've made this recipe for non-vegans and for my personal chef clients. It's ALWAYS a winner. I hope you give it a try, or save this post and try it later!⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ #healthystart #healthyfoods #blackgirlswhoblog #blavityfoodie #healthyisthenewskinny #healthyfamily #healthycooking #healthytips #browngirlbloggers #healthyeatinghabits #healthyrecipe #weightlossgoals #weightlossfood #bbgtransformation #myfitnessjourney #blackbloggers #blackfoodie #bloggerlifestyle⁣ #brownsugarsocial #bloggerlove #bloggerslife #blackblogger #atlbloggers #atlantabloggers⁣ #healthyrecipe #healthycooking #healthyeatinghabits #healthymeals #blkcreatives #blackgirls
  • Homemade Garlic and Herb Cream Cheese - Recipe on the blog now 🙂. I have 2 cheese recipes on the blog and tested them out on non-vegans. They LOVED them! This cream cheese spread is great for bagels or to use as a dip for crackers and veggies. I’ve been making bagel sandwiches & using this savory cream cheese as the sandwich spread (I’m obsessed and you will be too)! I also use this as one of the cheeses for my FOUR Cheese Vegan Mac and Cheese 🙌🏾 (next weeks recipe). - I hope you all are doing well. As many of you have noticed, it’s getting harder and harder for me to keep up with social media. I’ve been very active on my website and YouTube Channel, but social media is just SO EXHAUSTING!!! Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, Snapchat.... 😩😩😩😩. - Let’s see if I can be more consistent in 2019. I’m trying. I’M TRYING!!! - For the first time in MY LIFE, I’m actually hyped for the new year! I have some big plans that I’ll hopefully be able to share with you all within the next year. Stay tuned. - Be safe out there tonight ♥️. • • • • • • • • • • #healthystart #healthyfoods #healthymeal #healthyisthenewskinny #healthyfamily #bloggerlove #bloggerlifestyle #makeitblissful #browngirlbloggers #veganrecipes #vegandessert #vegandinner #vegandesserts #vegancooking #veganlove #veganfoodie #vegancake #vegantreats #veganliving #veganbreakfast #veganlunch #vegancommunity #healthystart #healthyfoods #healthymeal #healthyisthenewskinny #healthyfamily #healthycooking #ThriveMags #veganlunch
