But across the board, it means a meal that’s sustainable, packed with plant-based protein, and so simple to make that we can do it with our eyes closed (as they tend to be some mornings). After all, when we prepare a meal that’s good for us AND the planet, we’re inspired to make better food choices throughout the day. My staple as of late has been a plant-based scramble—I use JUST Egg because it’s the closest in taste and texture. I love this recipe because it’s super versatile and you can add all sorts of veggies, beans, or whatever is in your fridge! Sometimes I’ll throw it on top of some sprouted bread for avocado toast or with some almond butter—it’s a complete protein! Kristine T (Senior Health Editor): My go-to breakfast is plant-based overnight oats. I’ll throw it together Sunday night, and that will last me for at least three days. I’ve been trying to get more protein in my diet so I pack it with plant-based sources like flaxseeds and nut butter and then top it off with sliced banana and cacao nibs (what better way to start your day out than with a little chocolate?). A born and bred Texan, I’m passionate about my breakfast tacos. While I play around with the ingredients (sometimes it’s mushrooms; other times it’s diced bell pepper or spinach), it’s always a three-step formula: a serving of JUST Egg Folded, veggies, and vegan cheese scrambled together on a pair of grain-free tortillas. I’ll top them with a drizzle of hot sauce (a nonnegotiable for me) and some avocado if I’m feeling fancy. Courtney H (Director of eCommerce): Breakfast is my favorite, and I have a couple of staples in my rotation. When I feel like baking, I’ll whip up my grain-free banana bread (always topped with almond butter). But if I need something on the go, I swear by my cauliflower, blueberry, and greens smoothie—with some plant-based protein powder thrown in!
