It's the last day of the month, and it's a great time to share a recap of our impactful Chef's workshop on Plant-based Cuisines in Nigeria.

At MyVeganAfrica, we've spent the month of September reviewing some of our pilot activities, evaluating their impact and traction, continuing our important market research, and planning for our pan-African expansion. We're looking forward to an engaging October as we roll out some of our projects and especially look forward to YOUR participation in our growing community.

Let’s go!

Last week Friday, we organized a workshop called "Chef for Plant-based Cuisines"—the first in a series of our Chef engagement programs to be held across Africa. The event lasted for 5 hours and featured engaging discussions, cross-learning experiences, and, of course, delightful vegan cuisine.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our wonderful facilitators who made this workshop such an enriching experience for the attendees. Our co-founder, @drkikiope had the privilege to speak on the topic "Why Plant-based Diets?", while Dr. Tushar, a medical doctor and plant-based dietician, delivered a presentation on "Plant-based Nutrition - Benefits and Considerations."

That's not all!

Chef Daniella, founder of @soulveg_kenya, shared insights into the role of chefs in the vegan movement, and to crown it, Chef Bola of @provegng led an exploration of plant-based cuisines, wholesome plant-based foods, locally grown foods, meat alternatives, and recipe design.

Special thanks to Thrive Philantropy, @reddishchronicles and @provegng for their amazing partnership and support. Finally, a big shoutout to our co-founder, @llunamien all the efforts put in to make the workshop a huge success.

Our #VegStory of the week is from Dinna, the Founder of @coisinhas_vegan, a vegan food business based in Cape Verde 🇨🇻

She was one of the very first set of vendors who signed up to our soon-to-be-launched #MVAcommerce platform - an e-commerce platform established for businesses who wish to trade their plant-based products across Africa.

Her story of accepting change, applying innovation and creativity, and entrepreneurship is sure to inspire you.

Looking for vegan plant-based food? It is right where you live.
An example is Akara in Nigeria.

Akara - also known as the Nigerian bean cake - is a beloved snack and breakfast food in Nigeria made from the nutritious black-eyed peas. It is also commonly sold by street vendors as a tasty and filling treat.

Enjoy a wholesome breakfast idea eating Akara with corn pap that is fortified with almond milk and sweetened with date syrups.

P.S. - Coming soon! We will soon begin to share how-to videos for many of these African-inspired vegan and plant-based recipes and more. Stay tuned.

We hope you are off to a great start this week and you get some lunch inspiration from this delicious pasta meal incorporated with tofu chops and mushrooms. 🤤

Pasta has been widely accepted by many different cultures over time, including Africa, where we have adapted pasta cuisines and recipes to our local tastes.

However, it is important to know that with different types of pasta, some are more nutritious than others. Some great tips to eating a healthy pasta meal is to choose pasta made from whole wheat, include lots of vegetables, limit the pasta serving size, and include plant-based proteins as in the picture.

Trick question for you: Where did pasta originate from? (It may not be where you immediately think.. 🤔😉)

The African Pear and Corn have been a beloved snac

The African Pear and Corn have been a beloved snack combination since our ancestors discovered their deliciousness and health benefits. It’s a great way to enjoy the flavours of the tropical rainy season and a wonderful plant-based alternative to unhealthy snacks. This pairing offers lots of fiber, antioxidants, and a variety of vitamins and minerals, contributing to benefits such as immune support, protection against chronic diseases, improved digestion, and gut health.

What seasonal plant-based foods do you currently snack on in your country? Let us know.
