Plant-based recipes for a deliciously healthy life
Hey babes, This last week, I was chatting with my mom when she mentioned checking out a noodle bar in town with her friends. As she told me what all they ate, one dishes caught my immediate interest: Pad Thai. I’ve been making it at home for ages, and I love the spicy blend of […]
Hey babes, So, when I was in my late teens in the military, I met a wonderful couple that I became fast friends with. And the woman of the couple taught me how to make homemade Alfredo sauce during one of our regular weekend get-togethers. Up to that point, my experience with alfredo had always […]
Hey babes, So, I’m not a food snob. I consider myself kind of a redneck vegan. I try to keep things simple, frugal, and almost always involve my heirloom cast iron skillets when I cook. HOWEVER, when I see something egregious, I can’t help myself. All new chefs and home cooks are granted a pass. […]

Hey babes, So, I know it isn’t meant to be clickbait (or maybe it is, I’m not the Judge Judy of Intent), but I always feel cheated by the tagline “Meatless Monday.” I recently found myself on a pretty popular Millennial/Gen Z website, known for their mega lists, quizzes, videos, and surprisingly informative news branch.

Well folks, it happened again. I decided to try something new, and couldn’t find a recipe to satisfy my curiosity. What else is new? Shocking as this may be, I have not had a lot of experience with tempeh. The last time, prior to this week, that I attempted it, I was still a wee, […]
Hi babes, I'm Monica, the girl behind the curtain of Whole Food Plant Babe. My deep love of food and flavor couldn't be deterred by health concerns, so I sought to make WFPB recipes even tastier than their meat and dairy predecessors so I could have a long, happy, sexy, healthy life.
