One of my January intentions was to have Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) every day. I’m sure some of you would agree with me that ACV is a pretty intense.

Even before I was a vegan I was never a huge fan of eggs on their own but I loved them in tacos or breakfast burritos. Tofu eggs are great, I love them but I don't like having too much soy products so I am always looking for new variations of eggs. I was looking at Vegetarian Time Magazine and they had a recipe that used mashed plantains as eggs so I thought I would give it a try. I had never cooked with plantains before.

This recipe was addaped from a recipe I found on pintrest called Tangled Thai Salad. You are supposed to use a turning slicer (spiralizer) to cut the carrot and yellow beets into super-long, thin strands that form a big round tangle of a salad.I don’t have a turning slicer my julienne peeler is in storage in California so I just used a potato peeler. If I had a either a turning slicer or a julienne peeler it would have been more tangled but mine came out to be a normal looking salad. Still delcious though.
