I recently shared a post and video about plant-based skincare and beauty products that I love.
Today, a similar post, but for a few vegan products that I love and use regularly. While I’m calling them “vegan products,” they’re truly just high-quality kitchen essentials.
Some aren’t designed specifically for vegans, but their versatility makes them perfect for enhancing your plant-based meals and vegan diet. Plus, they can be powerful tools for incorporating some handy vegan meal prep hacks into your routine, making prepping delicious and healthy meals a breeze.
It’s hard to narrow down my favourite vegan meal prep essentials. I’ve mentioned some in other posts. However, those posts were designed for gift-giving. This post is simply products I love using on the regular.
I recorded a video with most of these favorites. Until I discovered a hot new favorite and needed to record a second video. 😅 So let’s review one at a time… So here are some of tips for efficient meal prepping.
Vegan Kitchen Meal Prep Essential Food Favourites:
Wilderness Poets Vanilla Bean Powder
This may not be news. I’ve talked about Wilderness Poets vanilla bean powder many times. It’s simply an essential imo, and while it’s pricey a little goes a long way. It’s especially amazing in recipes that aren’t baked, such as my vanilla ice cream.
California Balsamic Vinegars
While vanilla bean powder isn’t new to me, California Balsamic Vinegars are… and I’m a new fan. The Teriyaki Balsamic is an absolute top pick, and I was pleasantly by the Mustard Seed Dill! The Ruby Red Onion is delicious on steamed veg like green beans. Also, if you love curry, you must try the Curry Balsamic.
Matcha Powder
A good quality matcha powder is a game-changer. My two favorite brands are DoMatcha and Wilderness Poets. Get the full scoop of matcha in this post.
In my video, I also highlight the Mira travel mug I use (and love). Here it is on amazon.com.
We often talk about the appliances we use the most. The instant pot, the Vitamix, the Ninja Creami. But today I want to highlight a few inexpensive, very handy kitchen tools – one that I just discovered! Below are some of my favourite essential vegan prep tools.
Kitchen Rasp
I couldn’t go without my kitchen rasp. I use it regularly for zesting citrus and grating garlic and ginger. It’s a must-have tool and you can find a good selection of affordable ones on amazon.com and amazon.ca.
Jar Key
This short video says it all. 👇 Except for this: how am I only learning about this gadget now?! This is a kitchen tool we all need in our kitchen. Find it on amazon.com and amazon.ca.
Frother
From my video above, this little frother goes a long way in my kitchen and daily routine! I use it every morning for my matcha lattes. Find one here on amazon.com and here on amazon.ca. If you don’t make lattes, you could also use this frother for hot chocolates!
With these vegan meal prep essentials in your arsenal, you’ll be whipping up delicious, stress-free meals that fuel your busy life!
