Animal agriculture is one of the most resource-intensive industries on the planet and is currently responsible for 51 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. At our current world population of seven billion, we are already expending 70 percent of the world’s freshwater and 45 percent of arable land resources for the livestock system.
OK so for the next month I am going to attempt to be zero waste and I am posting this here so I actually feel accountable There are actually so many packaged goods at the supermarket that can be made at home for a quarter of the price (talk about that student life) and without all the unnecessary packing and weird numbers in the ingredients list. Like granola holy heck there is no way I am paying $16 for a packet This is currently my favourite INGREDIENTS 1 ½ cups (135 g) gluten-free rolled oats ½ cup (40 g) unsweetened coconut flake (large flakes are best) ½ cup (54 g) slivered raw almonds (or raw almonds, chopped) ½ cup (50 g) raw pecan halves 1 Tbsp (12 g) sugar ¼ tsp sea salt 3 Tbsp (45 ml) coconut oil 1/3 cup (80 ml) maple syrup 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Mix in a large bowl and bake for 25 minutes at 160C. They key is to leave it to cool for a good 10 minutes before transferring to a container so it can get super chunky And yes that is a turmeric latte what am I turning into
Cardamon infused black rice breakfast pudding because I was really feeling myself this morning I used: ¾ cup black rice ½ tsp + ½ tsp cardamom 1 ½ cup boiling water ½ cup rice milk 3 tbsp sweetener ½ cup blueberries
Place rice in a pot, add ½ tsp of cardamom (or two cardamom pods) and pour boiling water over it. Leave it like this for a night.
In the morning add ½ cup rice milk, sweetener, and more cardamom, cover and bring to boil over a medium heat. Uncover, decrease the heat and simmer for about 7 minutes, stirring from time to time, you want it to be tender. Then add blueberries and cook for one more minute and there you go you have a stylish breakfast my friend

Cacao-strawberry chia pudding Chia seeds are one of the most nutrient dense foods in the plant kingdom with all 9 essential amino acids (I.e a complete protein), omega-3s, insoluble fiber (to keep you full longer, slow carb absorption,l and prevent blood sugar spikes), antioxidants and more calcium, magnesium and iron than most plant-based foods. Chia pudding is an easy and delicious way to eat your chia Mix in a 1 chia: 4 nut milk ratio and let your chia soak for at least 2 hours.
