Vegan French Toast fuh breakfast!

1 tsp chia seeds, 1 tbs ground flax seeds and 3 tbs water. Let it sit for around 10 minutes. Then mash 1 ripe banana, add the flax/chia mixture. Add 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Throw it all in the blender and add a splash of non-dairy milk!

Blend blend blend, pour into a large bowl.

Should be able to (individually) soak 4-6 slices of WHOLE GRAIN bread in the mixture. Throw it on the frying pan (I used sunflower oil instead of butter) just like regular french toast, serve it with sliced bananas and maple syrup. :)

1 serving is approximately 162 calories (of course depending on what bread you use, and non-dairy milk)

No Meat Athlete is a website I frequent/get inspired by. I’m not a vegetarian, but it’s creepin’ closer and closer everyday.

My Dad has decided to become vegan after receiving some relatively disturbing news in regards to his health…with that, comes probably the rest of us under this roof no longer eating meat.

Whatev, won’t miss it. Anyways, read this article. Inspiring, awesome. La la l

**Just a side note, both recipes call for vegetable oil/olive oil and my father is on a very very strict vegan diet that restricts the use of oil in any cooking. So I replaced it with vegetable broth! (Which reduces the calories significantly) The “fries” were more like sliced baked sweet potatoes. Still delish. ;)

My dinner: Vegetarian Split Pea Soup
