Before You Dive Into This Delicious Recipe… 🍲

Let me ask you something.

Have you ever said, “I know I should eat more plants... but I just don’t know how to make it work in real life?”

If so—you’re not alone. And you’re exactly who I created The PlantWhys Collective for.

It’s not a diet. It’s not a challenge.
It’s a lifestyle shift for real women with real lives—who want to feel better, lose weight, and stop feeling overwhelmed by all the “shoulds” when it comes to food.

Inside the Collective, you’ll get:

✅ A gentle, step-by-step 40-day Jumpstart
✅ Weekly live support + check-ins with certified coaches
✅ Quick, feel-good Pilates workouts (just 5 minutes a day)
✅ Monthly mindset coaching and book club
✅ Live cooking classes + bonus cookbooks
✅ And a private community (no Facebook drama here)

It’s like the support system you’ve always wanted, all in one place—with no guilt, no fads, and no shame.

You’ll see everything laid out clearly—whether you want to dip your toe in monthly or go all-in for the year.

You don’t need to go plant-based overnight.
You just need a simple path—and someone to walk it with you.

Now… ready for the recipe? Let’s do this. 🌱

Chocolate Veggie Power Muffins

Moist, chocolatey, and secretly packed with zucchini, banana, pumpkin and cauliflower—these muffins taste like a treat while sneaking in extra veggies and whole grains.

Ingredients

1 medium zucchini, chopped
1 ripe banana
½ cup frozen riced cauliflower
½ cup puréed pumpkin (from a can)
½ cup sweetened soy milk (or plant milk of choice)
⅓–¾ cup brown sugar or coconut sugar (adjusted to your taste preference)
⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
1 Tbsp vinegar (apple cider or white)
1 tsp baking soda
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
½ cup dairy-free chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin pan with silicone liners or lightly grease.
Blend wet mixture: In a high-speed blender, combine zucchini, banana, cauliflower, and soy milk. Blend until smooth. Add in cocoa powder, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, vinegar, and baking soda. Blend again until fully combined.
Mix with flour: Pour the blended mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add the whole wheat pastry flour and stir until just combined (don’t overmix).
Fold in chocolate chips: Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
Fill muffin tins: Divide the batter evenly into silicone muffin cups.
Bake: Bake for 15–17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
Cool & enjoy: Allow muffins to cool for a few minutes before removing from the liners. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or freeze for later.
