Throw one of these in a bun, add ketchup and mustard, and you have yourself a seriously delicious vegan hot dog. I had this for dinner last night and I felt like a kid again. YUM! I also have some exciting news for you!

Benefits of A Vegan Hotdog Made With Carrots

My amazing acupuncturist, Phyllis Kung, of PK Acupuncture and Wellness and I are teaming up to bring some awesome nutrition info into your life! She is extremely knowledgeable about how foods play a huge role in healing and regulating the body as well as how they fit into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Here are some cool facts about carrots according to TCM:
  • Their sweet taste makes them both nourishing and neutral, meaning they are good for all body types
  • They support spleen and stomach function
  • They are alkaline-forming, which supports detoxification of intestines, stomach, and spleen
  • Due to their high Vitamin A and silicon content, they are great anti-inflammatories for skin conditions (such as acne and skin lesions like chicken pox and measles) and mucous membrane conditions (such as digestive, respiratory, and urinary tract infections)

If anyone had ever told me that vegan hotdog could taste like a regular hot dog before I tried these, I would have told them they were crazy!
