HIPPIE WHOLESOME FOOD words | neldy co recipes | holly nottrot

Hippie Wholefood was created for the people to realize that vegetarian lifestyle is NOT boring and is certainly NOT limiting. It is kind of odd to imagine those who are certified meat lovers enjoying their meatless meal. Fortunately, Hippie Whole Food recommends some fresh and delectable recipes that will change every meat lovers’ mind to try fun and yummy dishes minus the meat.
The name‘ Hippie Wholefood’ intends to represent vegetarianism as an alternative way to get a wholesome diet. It is not as some believe as a weight loss scheme to limit one’ s intake of certain types of food. It’ s simply another form of balanced meal. It tells people that there is a variety of ingredients and substitutes available so that exciting and nutritious veggie dishes can be incorporated more often into people’ s diets. If meat is the tastiest part of your dinner, you may add a little guilty pleasure instead to forget the lack of meat( i. e. cheese or a dollop of mayo!) People seem to have this idea that vegetarians live off rice, pasta and the occasional lettuce leaf. This presumption pushes Hippie Wholefood to experiment more and more with ingredients and avoid bland flavors!
Hippie Wholefood helps its followers on how to achieve vibrant health on naturally wholesome vegetarian diets, as well as making it easier than ever to avoid the poor nutritional choices that often result in the“ ex-vegetarian” phenomenon. It also gives information that all nutrients required by the human body can be obtained from non-animal sources, including plenty of protein, iron, calcium, vitamin D, vitamin B12, and fatty acids such as Omega and DHA oils.
Now, start making it a habit to go to the green and fruit section when going to a grocery store! You may find yourself appreciating food more and enjoying much wider food varieties.

Nettles are high source of iron, great for vegetarians as they are more likely to suffer from anemia( a lack of iron) for not reaping the benefits found in red meats. They have also been proven to improve skin conditions like eczema, make hair shinier and thicker and keep the skin clear. In addition, the nettle contains 10 % protein which is the highest level found in any vegetable.
Ingredients
100g
pine nuts
100g
nettles
2 tbsp
olive oil
20g
fresh basil + extra for garnish
100g
Spinach
15pcs
halved cherry tomatoes
2 pcs
chopped garlic cloves
250g
spaghetti noodles
Instructions 1. First, place the nettles, chopped garlic, half of the pine nuts and all the olive oil into a pan. Turn on a medium flame and cover the pan with a lid to seal in moisture. Once the nettles become limp and turn into a darker green, move it onto the next stage.
2. Now add in the spinach and basil and cover with a lid until limp.
3. Place all your mixture into a blender. You will need to add some cold water just enough to cover the mixture, otherwise it will be too thick and dry to blend.
4. Finally, put the mixture back to the pan and turn on low heat. Add chopped cherry tomatoes and the remaining pine nuts. Before serving, rip up some of the reserved fresh basil and mix it into the spaghetti then serve.
