🥑 🍝 20-MIN VEGAN DINNER | "CHEESY" AVOCADO PASTA WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND CELERY 🍝 🥑
Looking for an easy weeknight dinner that is quick to make and super delicious? This is the one. Definitely making this again on busy evenings like this. With my cat being sick and me having to drive up to the capital (3h from where we live if traffic is ok), my parents arriving in a week and our latest project of opening a bakery/health cafe, peaceful moments seem to be over.
So expect some more 20 to 30-minute dinner creations in the near future!
Next, to all this positive and negative excitement I am still quite busy with the new website and health coaching. Sometimes I even don't know where I find the time to be on steemit. Though I never work till late (we get up really early) a lot of my free time goes to cooking and steemit, which is such an inspirational environment not only to get ideas for vegan cooking......
At the beginning of our home working journey, we hardly stopped working since your work is your home and you love what you do. After 6 months, however, everything became too much and ever since Sunday Funday has been our non-work day. If we have time we take another day during the week or weekend!
Relaxation and enjoying life is so important! So don't forget to make time for the things and people you love!
So instead of spending hours in your kitchen, try this easy recipe and free up some precious time to do something non-work related ;)

is pasta vegan?
and how would you go about adding glutenfree to veganism?
Pasta is vegan. At least this one. I reckon you have varieties with eggs too. Always check the label. Though we are not gluten-sensitive we don't eat wheat products such as bread and pasta very often. I would love to buy things like pasta gluten-free.... sadly Cambodia doesn't have many options. We don't even have a decent supermarket where we live and no health food store. Not even in the capital. Usually, we make pasta from spiralized veggies, but sometimes when we are in a hurry, we use pasta. Still better than ordering take-out food ;) Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!
It looks very nice, can't just imagine eating that, I will try putting it on my table.
You won't regret making this one at home. We loved it ;) Have a great day!
Thank you for that
Looks quite healthy and yummy....hence why you look great. Keep it up
Aww thanks my friend. You are always so kind!
This looks phenomenal :)
Thanks @suspectcertainty. We loved every bite of it.
As usual you had me at easy...and pasta...and cheesy avocado sauce... ;)
Lol... life is becoming so busy here so you can expect more easy dishes ;)
