Kitty Cotten's video: What I Ate in a Day Vegan Solo Parenting

Sharing what I ate on the weekend solo parenting. My hat goes off to any single parents out there! Your job is incredibly hard! Whenever my husband goes out of town I'm always reminded of how hard it must be to be a full-time single parent. RECIPES ‣‣ ‣ CHIA SEED PUDDING BREAKFAST 3 tbsp chia seeds 1/2 ripe, mashed banana 1 cup non-dairy milk Dash of vanilla extract Direction: Add all ingredients together. Stir well. Let sit for a few minutes, stir well again. Place in refrigerator over night. Top in the morning with fruit, nut butter and granola or any other toppings you'd like! ‣ HOT INDIAN LUNCH @ MALL OF AMERICA I get the vegan channa rice bowl with the tomato garlic sauce and slaw. https://www.hotindianfoods.com/ ‣ ASIAN TEMPEH RICE BOWL WITH VEGGIES DINNER 1 cup cooked Brown rice 1 block of tempeh marinated (see below) 1 sweet potato 1 head of broccoli Orange Miso Peanut Sauce (see below) Tempeh Marinated: 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil 1 tbsp rice vinegar 1 tbsp maple syrup or any sweetener 1 thumb of minced ginger 1 clove of garlic minced 1 tsp sriracha hot sauce (optional) 1/2 cup of low sodium vegetable stock Orange Miso Peanut Sauce: 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil Juice of half an orange 2 heaping scoops of peanut butter 1 tbsp miso paste Add water as needed to thin it out. Directions: Mix together the marinated for the tempeh. Add sliced tempeh to marinated in pan. Add sweet potato to the stove to cook. I like to cut mine in half and place on a baking sheet to speed up cooking. Cook sweet potato until soft. Add tempeh pan covered with tin foil. Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes at 375-F. Remove tin foil and flip tempeh and cook for another 10 to 15 minutes until most of the marinated is absorbed. Saute broccoli in a pan with water until bright green. I used pre-cooked frozen brown rice that I just heated up in the microwave as per the instructions. Mix together your Orange Miso Peanut Sauce. Add everything to a bowl, top with sauce and enjoy! ------------------------------- FOLLOW ME ‣‣ INSTAGRAM ‣ http://instagram.com/kittycotten BLOG ‣ http://kittycotten.com PINTEREST ‣ http://pinterest.com/kittycotten ------------------------------- ENROLL IN MY CAPSULE WARDROBE COURSE: http://kittycotten.com/capsule-wardrobe-course ------------------------------- CAMERA GEAR ‣‣ Main Video Camera ‣ http://bit.ly/2vFsztq Main Photography Camera ‣ http://bit.ly/2fp3Ssq Small Vlogging Camera ‣ http://bit.ly/2fp93sn Edited in Final Cut Pro ------------------------------- DISCOUNTS ON MY FAVORITE PRODUCTS ‣‣ Everlane (my favorite ethical fashion basics brand) ‣ https://www.everlane.com/r/kittycotten AWAY LUGGAGE (my favorite carry on suitcase that charges your phone) Get $20 OFF your first suitcase with this link: ‣ http://fbuy.me/mpZnR ClassPass (Access to thousands of classes at the best studios?
