Why I love PlantFusion

These tasty protein cinnamon rolls wouldn’t be complete without my favorite new product, which is the Plant Fusion Complete Plant Collagen Builder! This product is the first triple action PLANT collagen builder, so like WOW already off to an amazing start. For me what is inside products is the most important consideration. The second most important is the flavor. I can promise you that this product (well, all of PlantFusions products) doesn’t fall short in either of those categories. I am super passionate about supporting PlantFusion, because I truly believe that they are the best vegan plant based protein powder in the game. As always, my code: “NATURALVEGAN” will get you 25% off your entire order at Plantfusion. I do earn commission off this link, but I genuinely believe you’ll be as obsessed with their products as I am.

How to make healthy vegan desserts?

Hello, and welcome! If you’re new here, I am a complete health nut with a passion for creating recipes! Each recipe on Theallnaturalvegan.com has undergone lots of testing a developing in order to bring you a delicious healthy recipe, and not something that tastes like grass! I promise, healthy eating is a lot easier than it seems! A few of my go-to rule of thumbs are:

• Opt for true plant based sweeteners
  • Look for plant ingredients you actually recognize (dates, bananas, applesauce) You may be asking why? Well, simply put: fiber. These ingredients have fiber and nutrients in them whereas zero calorie sweeteners like stevia have neither of these and just spike your blood sugar.
• Remember calorie density
  • To follow up the last point, if weight loss, or weight management is your goal, remember that fresh fruits and vegetables always have the lower calories, and grains and nuts have more. Oil has a very high calorie density, so that is one major reason I avoid using it for the most part.
• Incorporate ingredients that will keep you full for extended amounts of time
  • This is why I love incorporating protein powder into this recipe, because it helps keep me full for longer, no more midnight snacking!
