(V/GF) Chicago Style Hot Dogs 😱
I lived in Chicago for 5 years with my fiancé Patrick. Even though we live in Sunny Los Angeles now, we still miss the rich food culture that was present in Chicago. The other day, Patrick and I were talking about how we wish we could experience a Chicago style hot dog again, but plant-based and gluten-free. Well, our wish came true. I developed a recipe for a Chicago style plant-based gluten-free hotdog that encompasses all of those traditional, classic flavors. 😱🤗 #vegan #plantbased #glutenfree #chicago #veganrecipes veganglutenfree
Ingredients:
- @lightlifefoods plant based hot dogs
- @scharglutenfree hot dog buns
- Pickle spears
- Sweet relish
- Yellow mustard
- Poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon plant base butter
- Sports peppers
- Celery salt
- 1/4 dusted sweet onion
- 1/3 sliced Roma tomato
1. Begin by preheating your oven to 350. Take out your gluten-free hotdog buns and place them on a baking sheet. Heat up a tablespoon of plant-based butter and glaze the top of your buns. Sprinkle poppy seeds over the buns. Bake for eight minutes.
2. In a sautéed pan, heat up olive oil. Take your plant-based hotdog and score the top of the hotdog without cutting all the way through. Take your celery, salt and season the hotdog in the grooves where you scored. Add to your pan and sauté for five minutes on each side.
3. While you’re waiting for your buns and hotdog to finish, get out all of your toppings and dice up your onion, and slice your tomato.
4. Begin to build your hotdog, the order matters!
5. First, add your hotdog to the bun. Second, add your mustard, then relish, then onion. Next, add your pickles, spear, tomato, and sports peppers. Sprinkle a little celery salt on top.

(V/GF) Blueberry Flaxseed Anti-inflammatory Protein Smoothie 🫐
Lately, I’ve been on a personal health journey, recovering from a severe disc herniation and long-term back issues I’ve lived with since childhood. One small but powerful change I’ve made is adding this blueberry flaxseed smoothie to my routine. Packed with plant-based protein and anti-inflammatory ingredients, it’s become a bright spot in my recovery. Blueberries are rich in inflammation-fighting antioxidants, supporting mobility and tissue repair. And flaxseed, did you know it’s the top plant source of omega-3s? Just a tablespoon of flaxseed supports anti-inflammation and can aid in disc health. 💙🩵 I am not a certified nutritionist or doctor, this is simply a personal recipe I created to support my own journey. #vegan #plantbased #glutenfree #summerrecipes #veganglutenfree
Ingredients:
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 1–2 tbsp flaxseed meal
- 1 scoop chocolate plant-based protein powder
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp coconut-cultured plant-based probiotic yogurt
