Thank you Tommy’s Superfoods for sponsoring this post!
I’m excited to announce that I’ve partnered with a great health-conscience, eco-minded and vegan-friendly brand, Tommy’s Superfoods, to bring you some quick and easy vegan meal ideas featuring their ready-to-eat frozen seasoned veggie blends. Their delicious veggie blends are made with just a few simple ingredients: the freshest veggies and whole grains seasoned with herbs, spices and olive oil, and always WITHOUT artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.
Tommy’s selects the freshest certified non-GMO veggies and grains at their most nutritious state, then does all the prep and seasoning so you don’t have to, before flash freezing them within 8 hours of harvesting. This ensures the veggies and grains retain their nutritional value with a freezer life of up to 2 years. This longer freezer life not only gives convenience to a plant-based diet but also (bonus!) means a reduction in food waste.
Tommy’s has 12 varieties of yummy veggie blends so you have options when you need them. Like when I get hangry for example (you do NOT want to be around me when I’m hungry FYI), I can just heat some yummy veggies and grains up in a skillet (or microwave if that’s your thing) and be completely satisfied with them on their own (and banish hangry Kait). Or when I forgot to make dinner (true story) I can throw some sweet potatoes in the oven and stuff them with Tommy’s Seasoned Asparagus & Kale for a a quick but HEALTHY meal for my family. Or heat up some tortillas and quick-bake some tofu, add Tommy’s Seasoned Fiesta Quinoa with salsa and/or guac, and be Taco Tuesday ready in a flash. On their own, combined or in addition to a meal, Tommy’s veggie blends simply make life easier without sacrificing taste and nutrition.
