As you can see this diet is rich in protein (yes you can build muscle on a vegan diet), in vitamins and minerals.
I'm gonna be honest with you, this recipe surprised me, I took the picture that is shown above after plating but I was like: "It looks great but let's see how it tastes".
 After putting my first mouthful I was in love with this recipe and I'll definitely try it a lot more often!
