This Friday’s email shares in more detail how we have been navigating the inevitable preschool holiday parties as a plant based family. (Send us a dm with your email or sign up via the link in our bio to get this one and future ones if you don’t already!) I'm finding this is uncharted territory in Charlotte, NC where everyone still considers mac-n-cheese a "vegetable," so I'm just figuring it out as I go along. I'm also very motivated knowing that whatever strategies I'm learning will empower many parents in the future to be brave with their choices and decisions to follow a path less traveled and lead by example. I 100% believe our children's bodies deserve better and their future depends on us striving for healthier lifestyle choices as families and communities. I am so proud of the way we eat and raise our babies and will forever have ZERO shame in fighting for our lifestyle choices to be respected in any situation we are presented. Here are some strategies that have helped us so far to navigate traditional pre-school as a plant based family! 1. Choosing a school that allows children to bring their own homemade snack/lunch! 2. Communication! At the beginning of the year we had respectful, positive conversations with her teachers, the school nurse, and the program director about how we eat plant based as a family and that Leea should not be given anything to eat/drink that is not first approved by us. We assured them we would always go above and beyond to provide whatever we needed to as an alternate treat for her. We also wrote this into her school forms as well. … continued in the comments! #raisedonplants

Our “Dandie” is here (my future sister in law and Leea’s future auntie even though she’s already a part of the family!) and she’s helping us organize our home to prep for baby number two! Literally the greatest gift in the world. SO… extra hands and help in our house called for a big grazing tray. Hint: put hummus or nut butter in the same section as whatever you are using to dip into them so you’ll have more room for goodies! Also make sure you are alternating between fresh produce and more snacky choices so there’s a wide variety. Bonus is this kept Leea occupied long enough for us to get her toy closet reorganized. Both were a huge mom win! What do you like to put in your family’s plant based snack tray?! 👇🏼🌱 #raisedonplants #ropfamily

Not gonna say I feel like a butterfly with this 37

Not gonna say I feel like a butterfly with this 37 week pregnant belly but I’m sure grateful for another super healthy and positive plant based pregnancy as we get excited to meet baby girl number two! 🙏🏻🌱🤰 Here are some things that have helped me!
1. Tons of hydration. My water bottle is pretty much glued to my hand.
2. Confidence in my plant based prenatal nutrition regiment with plant powders and smoothies every day and allll the delicious plant food.
3. Staying super active with mom life of a three year old and teaching tons of dance. Plus my @every_mother app membership!
4. Having a team of badass midwives in charge of my care who respect my choices and my desires for a natural labor and delivery. I’m literally obsessed with them and every appointment leaves me feeling empowered and excited.
5. Being present in this special season with Leea knowing things are going to look different soon! We have been calling this baby girl “our baby” and talking about all of the fun we are all going to have together! Mamas and mamas to be… I’m here for you!! Pregnancy can be so overwhelming and I have so many resources to share with anyone who needs support for how to thrive during this sweet season. 💗 #raisedonplants #ropfamily

Loving the progress on our fall garden over here!

Loving the progress on our fall garden over here! We are growing lavender for the first time on our two aeroponic gardens and we are already needing out over what to use it for and make with it! What are your favorite foods or drinks to flavor with lavender? Or what else would you use it for? Send us all the ideas! 🌱#raisedonplants #ropfamily

Guess what?! Our Creamy Tomato Bisque Recipe can be used for homemade SpaghettiO's. They taste REALLY similar when you mix the soup with some chickpea Banza letter noodles and it’s been great to send in Leea’s preschool lunch box. We then got curious and looked up everything that was in a traditional can of Campbell's SpaghettiO's 😳 SpaghettiOs ingredients: "Water, Tomato Puree (Water, Tomato Paste), Enriched Pasta (Wheat Flour, Niacin, Ferrous Sulfate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), High Fructose Corn Syrup (12 grams), Contains Less Than 2% Of: Salt, Enzyme Modified Cheddar Cheese (Cheddar Cheese [Cultured Milk, Salt, Enzymes, Calcium Chloride], Water, Disodium Phosphate, Enzymes), Vegetable Oil (Corn, Canola, And/Or Soybean), Enzyme Modified Butter, Skim Milk, Beta Carotene For Color, Citric Acid, Paprika Extract, Flavoring. Contains: Wheat, Milk" Our tomato basil soup ingredients: Onion, Garlic, Tomato Paste, Basil, Sundried Tomatoes, Olive Oil, Veggie Broth, Tomatoes, Unsweetened Almond Milk and Cashews, (Or replace both with oat creamer if you want nut free for school lunches!), Salt. Banza Alphabet Chickpea Pasta Ingredients: Chickpeas, Pea Starch, Tapioca, Xanthan Gum. It really is tragic that a laundry list of mostly toxic or inflammatory ingredients is acceptable in food in general but especially in food that is marketed to our children. Not okay. Who else agrees?! It's amazing the difference a little extra effort to cook a homemade version can make plus all of the adults in your family will be fighting over it too! If you get our weekly emails the full recipe is in your inbox from Friday otherwise click on the link in our bio or text “gift me” to 704-579-6429 to get plugged in! #raisedonplants #ropfamily
