👑 What brings you joy?

What’s up, Hustlers! 

Is anyone out there starting a new job or a new business venture? Maybe you’re making a big cross-country move or about to become a parent.

Whatever major life event you’re experiencing right now, I want you to trust yourself.

My game plan for tackling new challenges is to control what I can, become as educated as possible, and come back to the trust I have in myself.

We don’t give ourselves enough credit. We all have the ability to start things and figure them out. Trust yourself.

 .WHAT I’M JOURNALING ABOUT. 

My perfect day. ☀️ A lot of times we go on autopilot and we tend to forget what brings us true meaning and joy. Journaling can help to remind you. In your next journal entry, describe your perfect day. Be as detailed as possible, and even unrealistic about it. Then review your answer and pull out the parts that you can start to incorporate in your everyday life.

Need some inspiration? Here’s a look into my perfect day ⬇️ 

 .WHAT I’M COOKING. 

Vegan “Chicken” Nuggets. 🍗 Today I’m sharing my go-to vegan nugget recipe. I love to make a big batch and store them in my fridge for the week. They’re incredibly versatile — perfect for tossing into wraps, mixing into salads, or dipping into your favorite sauce. These nuggets are a staple protein in my kitchen, fueling my busy days with plant-powered nutrition! Try out the recipe and let me know what you think. ⬇️ 

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup vital wheat gluten

• 6 ounces of vegetable stock (or water if no veggie stock)

• 150 grams lupini beans (or cooked chickpeas)

• 1 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning

• 2 tbs nutritional yeast

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1 tsp onion powder

• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

• 2 tsp liquid smoke

• Dipping sauce (bbq, ranch, hot sauce)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350º. Line baking dish with parchment paper.

2. Add beans, seasonings and vegetable stock in a blender. Blend until smooth.

3. Add vital wheat gluten and dry seasonings into a large bowl.

4. Fold the wet ingredients into the bowl with a spatula. You can also use your hands to gently press the dough together.

5. Once a dough forms, tear or use kitchen shears to make into bite-sized pieces. Roll them in your hands until the shape resembles a nugget.

6. Cover and cook for 20 minutes in a baking dish at 350º.

7. Uncover and cook for 15-20 more minutes at 425º or until brown.

8. Serve with dipping sauce and enjoy!
