Ceviche is typically made with raw fish or shellfish that is marinated in an acid like lime or lemon juice. This marinating cooks the fish without heat. Substituting with hearts of palm is one of the cleverest vegan swaps you’ll ever make—promise! You simply dress the hearts of palm with the acidic juices instead of marinating them for hours, which makes this recipe a refreshing starter that’s also weeknight friendly.
Per serving:
Place lime zest in small shallow dish, and place lime juice in medium bowl. Add parsley and salt to zest and stir with fork to blend. Dip rims of 4 - 1/2 cup dishes into lime juice and then into zest mixture to coat the rims. Set aside. Add oil and paprika to lime juice. Whisk to blend. Set aside.
Drain hearts of palm. Slice into 1/4 inch rounds and pop out centers. Add all cut-up hearts of palm to lime juice dressing along with tomatoes, avocado, cucumber, jalapenu0303o, red pepper, onion, cilantro and basil. Gently toss together to blend evenly. Add pepper to taste.
Carefully spoon into prepared serving dishes, making sure seasoned rims stay intact. Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately.

While a great source of fibre, lentils also contain the highest amount of folate out of all plant-based foods. Oven ready If you don’t have an ovenproof skillet, you’ll need to transfer cooked lentil filling to a baking dish before topping with mashed sweet potatoes and baking.
Cauliflower has been having a moment lately, and this salad proves exactly why. Tender caramelized cauliflower is crowned in a glorious sweet and savoury crumble that will ensure it a place on your table all month long. Of all tree nuts, pecans have the highest concentration of flavonoids, which offer beneficial anti-inflammatory effects, and they also protect your cells from oxidative damage. Crumble perfection This crumble topping is too good not to use it on other preparations. Sprinkle over a carrot ribbon salad to add some extra pizzazz, use as a glorious garnish on a soup or stew, or consider generously spooning over your next vegetable “steak” to add some delicious textural variation.
This gloriously comforting dish gets its creamy lusciousness from a can of white beans. Feel free to use whatever vegetables you have on hand instead of broccoli. Pass the pasta Instead of regular pasta, consider serving this sauce over zucchini noodles, carrot noodles, or cooked spaghetti squash.
