Eating healthy can be a challenge, especially if you’re short on time.
One drawback of the whole food plant-based diet is that while it’s arguably the healthiest diet out there, it requires you spend more time in the kitchen preparing meals.

My favorite tricks include quick and easy meals like these Best Healthy 30-Minute Vegan Dinners that will help you get a meal on the table your whole family will love in just 30 minutes or even less!
While these plant-based recipes take just minutes to prepare, they don’t compromise on nutrition or taste, so you know you’re feeding your family a healthy whole foods diet you can feel good about.
