There’s only one possible outcome when three plant-loving chefs start playing in the kitchen: total deliciousness.
This ridiculously cute video stars one of our fave plant-based chefs and nutrition pros, Mikaela Reuben as she pairs up with kitchen pals and NYC chefs, Gabe Kennedy and Adam Kenworthy.
Watch the video, then try the romaine taco recipe below for a little vegan thrill. Mikaela explained the inspo behind their dish to us, saying “We just love each other, so making a quick recipe video was a great excuse to hang out and be goofy.The potatoes here add a nice feeling of fullness to the lighter zucchini and romaine lettuce. Flavorful, filling and fun.”
