Angela, it has been a minute you are a favorite of our readers. they love your recipes. Today we are going to focus on breakfast and snacks. We get a lot of healthy snack requests especially.
What are your 5 favorite breakfast meals to prepare and how did you discover them’?
Thank you so much! I usually eat light in the mornings. I may snack on a variety of fruit or drink a watermelon smoothie with mint. I also enjoy fresh or frozen blueberries with vanilla coconut yogurt, sprinkled with hemp seeds. After a workout at the gym, I’ll have a vegan protein shake made with almond milk. Sometimes I like mixing dried fruits like figs, dates, or raisins with sunflower or pumpkin seeds. Now, if I really worked up an appetite at the gym, I’ll have an avocado toast garnished with tomatoes. I must mention that I like to have green tea or matcha tea every morning!
What are your 5 favorite snacks and what are the health benefits?
Fresh fruits like apples, grapes, and oranges are my go-to. They’re filled with fiber and water that helps to aid in digestion and flush out the system. I love snacking on raisins with pumpkin or sunflower seeds. They give me energy and the seeds provide more protein. For a savory treat, hummus on almond crackers is another favorite. Hummus provides more protein from the chickpeas and tahini (sesame seeds). Every now and then, I’ll snack on popcorn. I top it off with nutritional yeast, which is loaded with B vitamins, especially Vitamin B12. Vegans lack this vitamin, so adding this delicious, cheesy-like seasoning to popcorn is a treat! I’m a big tea drinker, but my favorite of all is organic matcha tea. This green powder tea is loaded with antioxidants!
We will catch up with what’s going on with your current music on a later segment but We noticed online a brand new song ‘On My way out’ by Derrick Mckenzie featuring you is making quite a bit of noise already. That we must ask about. i listened it is hot. tell us a little about it and your collaborator.
Ah, thank you! The single, “On My Way Out” is the first collaborative effort of myself and the amazing, Derrick McKenzie (drummer of the English funk and acid jazz band, Jamiroquai)! We’ve met on Instagram through a mutual friend/peer. We’re admirers of each other’s work and wanted to do something together. The song has a feel-good vibe with live drums. It’s very danceable! “On My Way Out” is currently available on all music platforms.
