In celebration of Health Coach Week at HCI, we’re featuring two awesome recipes from HCI Grad Sarah Kaminski’s plant-based blog! <\/strong><\/p>\n

Sarah’s creative, juicy plant-based recipes<\/span> and heartfelt blog posts about her personal journey to healing are a true inspiration to aspiring Health Coaches<\/span> that healthy food does not equal boring and tasteless.<\/p>\n

Here, Sarah shares her purely plant-based burger and fries because being a Health Coach<\/span> does not mean you have to supplement your diet with expensive vitamins or eat like a rabbit.<\/p>\n

Sarah’s recipes<\/span> range from rich and nutritious plant-based soups to all kinds of healthy breakfast treats to simple but substantial main courses ranging from black bean and spinach stuffed sweet potatoes to vegan mac ‘n cheese that your toddler would love!<\/p>\n

First, check this out… Sarah says this is the #1 question she gets asked when sharing with people that she eats a plant-based diet:<\/p>\n

“Where do you get your protein?!?”<\/h2>\n

Her answer…<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\"\"
Think about this for a second. Where do some of the world’s largest living things get their intense strength and power? I’m taking elephants, Giraffes, Rhinoceros, Gorilla, Hippopotamus, Elk and when they roamed the Earth, Tons of DINOSAURS.

<\/p>\n

Yup, you guessed it! Plants! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

One cup of lentil soup will deliver nearly 20 GRAMS of protein. When combined with a balanced diet, deliver a complete protein profile, which is exactly what the body needs. 

<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

So here’s the deal. A 100% plant based diet isn’t for everyone (we aren’t 100%!).<\/div>\n
What IS for everyone are the benefits we reap from incorporating MORE plants into our diet. 

<\/p>\n

Sweet Potato & Bean Burgers<\/h3>\n

The white bean veggie burger you’ve been waiting for.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"
We are always looking for new veggie burger recipes. These take the cake–they freeze well and are a hit with the wee one. Courtesy of my man Mark Bittman.<\/p>\n

What you’ll need:<\/strong>
2 c cooked kale or spinach
1 cannelli beans, drained and rinsed
4 tbsp. olive oil
1 medium sweet potato
1\/2 c fresh breadcrumbs (literally pulse day old bread in the food processor)
1\/2 tsp cinnamon
1\/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Pinch cayenne
A little bit of whole wheat flour to bind, if needed<\/p>\n

To prep: <\/strong>
**These steps can be done up to 3 days ahead of time.**
1. Roast sweet potato at 350* for 35 minutes, or until a fork slides out smoothly.
2. Finely chop spinach or kale. Lightly steam in 1-2 inches water. Drain and rinse. Squeeze out all excess water.<\/p>\n

To prepare:<\/strong>
1. Pulse all ingredients in a food processor to blend. Shape into 4-6 patties, adding a little bit of flour to bind if needed.
2. Pan sear or grill, about 5 minutes on each side. If you are planning to grill, plan to refrigerate patties for about 30 minutes.
3. Serve with all the fixings you desire– our favorites are avocado, fresh sliced tomato, and homemade pickles.
* Serves 4-6 happy vegan bellies.<\/p>\n

Sweet Potato Fries<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Easy peasy, and an amazing twist on the traditional based sweet potato.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"
What you’ll Need:<\/strong>
2 sweet potatoes
drizzle olive oil
sea salt, to taste
Preheat oven to 425*  Slice potatoes to desired thickness (think pretty thin), arrange evenly on an un-greased baking sheet.  Drizzle with olive oil and salt.  Bake for 20 minutes or so–cook time will really vary based on thickness of the potatoes, so keep your eye on them!
* Serves 2-4 happy vegan bellies as a side dish<\/p>\n

These take the cake--they freeze well and are a hit with the wee one. Courtesy of my man Mark Bittman.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What you'll need:<\/strong><br>2 c cooked kale or spinach<br>1 cannelli beans, drained and rinsed<br>4 tbsp. olive oil<br>1 medium sweet potato<br>1\/2 c fresh breadcrumbs (literally pulse day old bread in the food processor)<br>1\/2 tsp cinnamon<br>1\/4 tsp ground nutmeg<br>Pinch cayenne<br>A little bit of whole wheat flour to bind, if needed<\/p>\n<p><strong>To prep: <\/strong><br>**These steps can be done up to 3 days ahead of time.**<br>1. Roast sweet potato at 350* for 35 minutes, or until a fork slides out smoothly.<br>2. Finely chop spinach or kale. Lightly steam in 1-2 inches water. Drain and rinse. Squeeze out all excess water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To prepare:<\/strong><br>1. Pulse all ingredients in a food processor to blend. Shape into 4-6 patties, adding a little bit of flour to bind if needed.<br>2. Pan sear or grill, about 5 minutes on each side. If you are planning to grill, plan to refrigerate patties for about 30 minutes.<br>3. Serve with all the fixings you desire-- our favorites are avocado, fresh sliced tomato, and homemade pickles.<br>* Serves 4-6 happy vegan bellies.<\/p>\n<h3>Sweet Potato Fries<\/h3>\n<div id=\"block-ccb1fb97b1ca80c1a7f0\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\">\n<div id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1520030952492_393\" class=\"sqs-block-content\">\n<p id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1520030952492_392\">Easy peasy, and an amazing twist on the traditional based sweet potato.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2241\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healthcoachinstitute.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/static1.squarespace.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1500\"><br><strong>What you'll Need:<\/strong><br>2 sweet potatoes<br>drizzle olive oil<br>sea salt, to taste<br>Preheat oven to 425*  Slice potatoes to desired thickness (think pretty thin), arrange evenly on an un-greased baking sheet.  Drizzle with olive oil and salt.  Bake for 20 minutes or so--cook time will really vary based on thickness of the potatoes, so keep your eye on them!<br>* Serves 2-4 happy vegan bellies as a side dish<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">------------------<\/p>\n<p>Want some home-made pickles to go with your plant-based burger 'n sweet potato fries?
