158: Whole-Food Plant-Based Eating 101

In this episode, I’m breaking down whole-food plant-based eating in a way that’s practical, doable, and fun. Whether you’re brand new to this lifestyle or an OG Dirty, this episode is for you!

I dive into:

What “whole-food plant-based” actually means (and how it’s different from vegan or plant-based)
How I recommend easing into eating more plants without changing your whole life
Why batch cooking / meal planning are game changers
Making simple food taste REALLY good
My favorite ways to make WFPB eating affordable and satisfying
Why imperfection might be the secret ingredient to keep going
