Food blog #1: Health is wealth at the "Planet Vegan"

My day went so tiring with all the documents needed to prepare in the site and my body is trembling for hunger. At the age of 41, I have to be very mindful of the food I eat so I had a hard time thinking where and what to eat for dinner. As I was scrolling my Faceboook news feed, I saw a friend posting about this not-so-fancy restaurant just nearby which serves food perfect for Vegans. With my curiosity winning over the frugal side of me, I went to this restaurant called the Planet Vegis.

Planet Vegis offers various food that surely Vegans would love to devour. They have the Cebuano all-time favorite, Siomai made with vegetable, flour and egg, Cauliflower Caserole that's perfect for Carbonara , fruit shakes in various flavors, and other food that all of us would enjoy.

_{Fried sioming, hahaha, kidding. It's fried siomai in a very different and tasty flavor.}

Their siomai is like a bomb in which the tasty veggie flavor explodes as you munch on these crunchy fried siomais. Some health tips: Did you know that a steamed siomai may contain 70 to 80 calories per piece? And I mean the traditional siomai we love to nibble. In Planet Vegis, you don't have to worry for that because there siomais are cooked in vegetable oil and there was no meat product used. It is indeed healthy.

_{Cauliflower Caserole}

Did you know that one serving of cauliflower contains 77 percent of the recommended daily value of vitamin C. It's also a good source of vitamin K, protein, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, magnesium, phosphorus, fiber, vitamin B6, folate, pantothenic acid, potassium, and manganese. Not just that because cauliflower as a member of the cruciferous family of vegetables which is often overshadowed by its green cousin broccoli has at least seven (7) amazing health benefits.

1. Fight cancer
2. Boost heart health
3. Anti-inflammatory characteristic
4. Boosts brain health
5. Detoxification support
6. Digestive benefitss
7. Antioxidants and Phytonutrients Galore

See? It's so amazing. But if cauliflower is not your favorite veggie then don't worry because soon you'll learn to love it because of its versatility. You can eat it raw, add it to salads, or use it in your cooking. Depends upon your liking, eh.

_{Avocado shake}

And to complete my meal, here's a glass of Avocado shake. As what most of you probably know, avocado contains high fat but little do we know that this fatty acid is actually oleic acid. Oleic acid has been linked to reduced inflammation and been shown to have beneficial effects on genes linked to cancer. The fats in avocado are also pretty resistant to heat-induced oxidation, making avocado oil a healthy and safe choice for cooking. Now, you can enjoy your avocado without any guilt lurking around the corner. And here's additional info, did you know that avocado can actually help you lose weight despite being tagged as a fatty fruit. Why?? How?? Well, let me tell you this. According to research, when you include avocado in your meal, you tend to be easily fulled (not fooled) and tend to eat less calories. See it for yourself and tell me how it went with you.
