THE DJ AND CHEF DUO
Jezzy and Mike (@Plantbasedamor) are a GF Vegan Couple based in Los Angeles who are Vegan Foodies by day and DJs by night. They have a passion for spreading awareness about veganism in their own creative way. Their goal is to build a platform where they can help inspire current & future generations to adopt a cruelty-free lifestyle because they believe it all starts with what we put on our plates, so that’s where Jezzy and Mike’s recipes & foodie adventures come into play. By cooking up their recipes or choosing to eat at the best vegan spots, they are lowering their environmental impact, saving the lives of animals, and becoming healthier than ever. And that’s what this duo wants to show the world.
WHO WANTS SOME VEGAN CHEESY MEATBALLS FOR LUNCH?
Who doesn’t love the combo of vegan meatballs and vegan cheese? It’s kinda like a cheese-stuffed vegan burger. So much yum! Jezzy and Mike stuffed their Beyond Meat Meatballs with Miyokos shredded pepper jack cheese. A perfect choice of cheese, if I do say so myself! Imagine biting into a warm hot of the grill meatball to be met with a mouth full of melted vegan cheese. It doesn’t get much better than that. And these little morsels of heaven are so easy to make. So give it a try. You will definitely make them again and again.
