Hey y'all! Last year, @okonomikitchen came up with the project of this Culture Through Food eBook to support the BLM movement and the AAPI community! They're all plant-based recipes or have plant-based options, so it's a STACKED eBook with so many delicious recipes to try.We have over 25 amazing POC creators contributing recipes from their cultures to make this amazing celebration of food! I contributed this recipe for banh mi opla, a veganized version of the eggy banh mi that I used to eat for breakfast all the time in Vietnam.It's $4.99 USD and all proceeds go to organizations that provide food for those facing food insecurity (@theokraproject for Trans Black People & @heartofdinner for Asian American Seniors in New York City!)I'll leave a link in the bio and a swipe up in stories for you to get yourself a copy! (https://payhip.com/b/0xOoA)All the amazing creators involved:

Bánh xèo isn’t the easiest food to eat socially distanced but we made it work! TBH I saw @foodwithsoy have some recently and I needed to eat some ASAP!! My recipe on the blog makes enough of these crispy, savoury rice flour and turmeric pancakes (no eggs fam!) for 3 people, and this is a dish meant to be shared, so I brought some to a friend’s backyard for an outdoor meal to end our weekend.I brought rice wraps for Eddie and Emma to make spring roll wraps with these but out of laziness, I went for the traditional wrap of mustard greens, đò chua, and a smattering of different herbs from my grandpa’s garden (don’t ask me which herbs because I don’t know their names lol). Dipped with my nước chấm chay and it was the perfect summer meal for a scorcher of a day yesterday!Someone was salty at me for “defying the stay at home order” in Ontario but we’ve been permitted outdoor gatherings of less than 5 people from separate households since May 22 so 🤷🏻‍♀️ we have our first doses, we were masked when less than 6 feet apart, and eating separately (well over 6 feet apart) and outside the entire time.Honestly it’s so jarring to see friends in Australia and the US going to parties and events and I’m so envious. Most people here have their first doses and our positivity rate has gone down, but the numbers still aren’t that great here. We still have a ways to go yet here in Ontario 🥲 still be living that lockdown life over here, limiting our outdoor ventures and masking up.Anyway, hoping to be able to make recipe videos and food videos again for you soon! My days of eating have been mostly fruit and odd meals so there hasn’t been that much exciting food to document haha. Will be back to regular content hopefully soon 😇Recipe: https://thevietvegan.com/vegan-banh-xeo/#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes #banhxeo #bánhxèo #whatveganseat #bestofvegan #veganfoodshare

I forgot to share this from a couple weeks back, esp because I’m pretty happy with the photo I took! I’m slowly getting back on my feet with some work things 😅 but I made 3 ingredient black sesame ice cream that doesn’t require an ice cream maker! (Although it would be better if you did have one, but...I don’t🤪)Part of my black sesame 3 ways video I put up last month! I’ll put a link in the bio for this if you want too (https://bit.ly/3aSRjCK)I’ve been trying to take things slow and try not to overwork myself if I can’t work, and unfortunately I’ve been feeling pretty under the weather lately, so bear with me for the next few weeks. Hopefully I can get back to recipe testing again soon.All in all, I’m fine, don’t worry about me. Eddie’s taking good care of me 🥰Hope you are all doing okay and able to take advantage of the nicer weather.#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes #blacksesame #blacksesameicecream #whatveganseat #veganfoodshare

My back is still kinda busted but I was able to sit long enough to post this recipe for black sesame butter cups! I’ve been super into black sesame lately, and am definitely reaping the benefits of the iron, calcium, and zinc content of black sesame!Plus I kind of love how metal these look. SESAME SEED BUTTER CUPS 🤘And obviously they taste like peanut butter cups but with a deeper nuttiness! Recipe on my blog (I’ll link in stories and in the bio feed) and there’ll be a video coming soon (once I can sit long enough to edit)#thevietveganrecipes #thevietvegan #veganfoodshare #blacksesame #vegan #bestofvegan https://bit.ly/2QpBJrg

It seems like @chez.jorge and I were on a similar wavelength this week because I've been working on this washed flour seitan video 🙈🙈 but the video is here and y'all, you can make seitan with JUST flour and water!!
🤯
Check out the recipe on my blog and video on the channel!!#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes https://bit.ly/37Lc69T #whatveganseat #washedflourseitan #washedflourmethod #seitan #hailseitan

My body got really mad at me for overdoing it on the salt last week so lately all I've been craving is fresh veggies. I piled on my vegan egg salad over some salad greens with tomatoes, cucumber, sunflower seeds, and coconut bacon.
🥗
It's a pretty hearty salad that hit the protein hard with a hearty dose of eggy flavour! Eddie thinks I'm a little weird for eating tofu egg salad like this but sometimes you don't feel like bread (I know, me? Not want bread?!)
🥗
If you want the recipe, I have a swipe up in my stories and you can find the recipe on my blog! (http://bit.ly/2wLWMr3) we make this once every few weeks for meal prep for Eddie and for when I am too scatterbrained to remember to make lunch 😅

New recipe is live!! Y'all know me and my love for dumplings and these red curry flavoured dumplings are up on the channel and the blog.
🥟
I feel like I could have improved the camera angle for capturing the dumpling folding but honestly seeing it from this angle to see what your hands are supposed to do is helpful too. Either way, go have a watch and I'd love to see your dumpling creations (bonus if you wanna challenge yourself and try braided dumplings!)
🥟
Have you tried braided dumplings before? It was actually really satisfying to really get a handle of it in the end. Swipe up in my stories for a video link and the recipe! (Recipe: https://bit.ly/3rhcg08)

I love having mock meats around but tofu will always have a soft spot in my heart! So many different types of tofu and so many different textures can be achieved, but honestly one of the most regular uses for firm tofu in our house is making tofu egg breakfast sandos with it!I have a recipe on my blog for these sandwiches (https://thevietvegan.com/vegan-egg-mcmuffins/) and they are deliciously eggy with this black salt marinade! Eddie makes this all the time, and often doesn't even bother with marinade sometimes, he just sprinkles black salt and pepper on top after frying both sides in the cast iron.I teamed up with some other fellow vegan creators who are sharing their tofu tips today so go check em out!✨ @muriellebanackissa made Sweet and Spicy Nooch Coated Tofu⁠
✨ @plantbasedkristy made Shredded Tofu Magic⁠
✨ @plentyfullvegan made Tofu Feta⁠
✨ @thecanadianafrican made Suya Tofu Skewers⁠
✨ @twomarketgirls made Crispy Herby Tofu Croutons!#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes #whatveganseat #veganfoodshare #bestofvegan #veganfood #tofurecipes

AD - Vegan satay with luscious, spiced peanut sauce and crunchy, stinky, umami green papaya salad? Yes please! Eddie thoroughly enjoyed my recipe tests for this recipe and promptly smothered this peanut sauce over anything and everything.
🍱
Recipe and video are on the blog and YouTube channel, please check it out and enjoy the new filming setup that I've been doing lately :) I think this makes for a much better video filmed this way!
🍱
I made this satay recipe as a collab with @monbento to show a delicious lunch idea that you can meal prep ahead of time! Y'all know I am a sucker for delicious food in my bento box, so I'm so jazzed that monbento gave me a code to save y'all 10%.
🍱
Use code THEVIETVEGAN10 on top of the sales happening right now to get you an adorable bento!
