Welcome to Beautiful Ingredient!

Beautiful Ingredient was created as a place to celebrate delicious ways of getting more vegetables, fruits, and other plants on our plates.  After even a small change in my daily routine, I quickly noticed I had more energy and enjoyed eating more.  I thought the opposite would be true with this sort of change, so was very pleasantly surprised.  

While the recipes here are technically vegan, I'm hoping that, whatever the lifestyle you choose, you will find some helpful information here.   Plants are where the nutrients are, and as humans we thrive on them.

My Must-Haves for eating more plant-based whole foods:

• delicious flavor
• easy and minimal prep
• enough fuel to get through busy days
• pleasant textures
• a contented sweet tooth
• crunchy and salty satisfaction
• staying within budget
• freedom from the goal of perfection

Welcome to a world of beautiful food!

I'm Kari, and this is where I celebrate beautiful ingredients and focus on ways to make eating more plants easier. Recipes are centered around whole foods and are vegan, cooked without the need for oil, mostly refined sugar-free and gluten-free. And so delicious!
