Vegan Weight Loss And Badass Quinoa With Veggies!
Enjoy today’s Badass Quinoa and Veggies with the creator of Badass Rebel Runner, Jane Elizabeth. She is prepping for the upcoming Los Angeles Marathon and decided to make us a very simple and very healthy meal. Taste-tester Taylor Patterson, known as the vegan trainer, joins us. Taylor is a passionate vegan who dedicates his life to coaching others to meet their highest potential. Let’s find out his vote on this vegan recipe. Watch the video to find out!
Jane Elizabeth is an author, motivational speaker, fitness coach, athlete, business owner, musician, and mom. After spending nearly two decades working in sales, management, and human resources, she found that what she most enjoyed was mentoring others. With a leap of faith, a kick-ass work ethic, and a lot of grit, Jane turned her passion for serving others into her full-time career. Using her unique blend of humor, badassery, and compassion, Jane captivates audiences large and small.
Jane has a very unique back-story. She once was an overweight, asthmatic who struggled with low self-confidence and thought she would always feel trapped in her body. Jane realized she was responsible for her life, her health, and the example she was setting for her daughter. With that, she set out on a journey to completely change her life. With a new focus on creating a healthy vegan lifestyle, Jane lost over 80 pounds. She is now an endurance athlete, with no asthma symptoms. Armed with her knowledge of health and wellness, Jane continues her mission to help others. She inspires and motivates others to create the life they’ve always wanted, by openly sharing her own story.
Although Jane holds many titles, being a mom is her favorite and most important title of all. She most enjoys spending time with her daughter and their rescue dogs. Originally from Minnesota, Jane and her family now reside in the Los Angeles area and thoroughly enjoy the California vibe.
Now let’s check out what Jane cooked up in this episode of #LunchBreakLIVE. We can see that she is super health-conscious and this meal is a very healthy option filled with carbs and protein, as well as delicious veggies!
Jane Elizabeth has been on #LunchBreakLIVE several times, always making amazing dishes. One of my favorite recipes are her super guilt-free Buffalo Cauliflower Bites. You can watch that episode HERE. Check out the recipe and make them for yourself. Be sure to let us know how you like them, or any other recipe we share on JaneUnchained. Your feedback is always welcomed.
