Week 4: Meals to Impress, Cauliflower Nachos.

Whenever I check out a new recipe this little 3-step filter runs at an almost unconscious level. Likely a combination of nearly 2 decades as a personal trainer and much longer as a somewhat lazy cook!

Today I am applying this to Loaded Vegan Spicy Cauliflower Nachos.

(I found this recipe via VegNews)

Where can I lower the fat? In the above recipe, I lowered 3 tablespoons avocado oil to 1. I also replaced 1 cup shredded vegan cheese with 1/2 cup tofu ricotta.
Where can I increase the protein? In the above recipe, I increased 1/2 cup black beans to 1 cup. I also added 200gm firm tofu, grated and mixed with Mexican spices.
How can make it simpler / faster? Using a spice mix is the simple option here. Or even just ensuring you are cooking a large enough serve for abundant leftovers so it's MUCH simpler / faster in the next meal.

I'd love to know, what's YOUR Go2 plant-based meal to impress??
