HAPPY NEW YEAR and hello 2021! I can’t say there has ever been a year I was so excited to start than this one. And what better way to welcome 2021 than with a yummy bowl of deliciousness…and by deliciousness, I mean black eyed peas.

This meal is filling, hearty, fast and easy to make and it’s sure to be on repeat every year!

Ingredients: Makes 6-8 servings

5 cans of black eyed peas, or already cooked peas (about 75-78 ounces)
Veggie broth (I used almost 32 ounce)
1 large onion, chopped
2 bell peppers (I used one red and one green), chopped
4-6 cloves of garlic, minced
1-2 TBSP Thyme
sea salt to taste
1-2 TBSP Cajun/creole seasoning - optional, but it’s good! (I use Tony Chacharie’s).
1-2 TBSP of smoked paprika
Vegan sausage - optional (I used Gardein Italian sausage)
Rice

Instructions: Stove Top

Saute onion and bell peppers on the stove in veggie broth until soft.
Add garlic and saute for another 3 minutes.
Add peas and mix well.
Add just enough veggie broth until its almost covering the peas. You don’t want to fully submerge them in broth.
Add spices and mix well.
Bring to a boil, then cover and let simmer for 30 minutes or until creamy.
Turn fore off and let sit for 10 minutes to thicken up more.
Serve over rice and enjoy!

Full On Plants is about eating in a way that keeps you full, fuels your body, and supports your health—fully.

This is where simple, satisfying, whole food plant-based meals meet real results. No calorie counting, no restriction—just feel-good food that fills your belly and supports long-term wellness.

I started this journey after losing 50 pounds by doing the opposite of what most diets teach—I ate more food, not less. And I kept it off by focusing on meals that are fast, flavorful, and packed with the power of plants.

Full On doesn’t just mean full and satisfied—it also means we’re all in on living well, eating better, and making this lifestyle doable for real life.

Whether you’re just getting started or ready to stay consistent, Full On Plants makes plant-based eating simple, sustainable, and energizing—so you can thrive without overthinking it.

Because food should fuel your body, fill your belly, and support your health.

And plants? They do all three.
