3 Surprising Facts About Vegan Food (And Where to Find the Best in Town)

Welcome to New Braunfels! If you are exploring our beautiful town and looking for delicious plant based meals, you are in the right place. Whether you are a strict vegan or just trying to eat a little healthier, plant based eating is full of surprises.

​My mom and I love cooking vegan dishes at 7 Monks Cafe, so we thought it would be fun to share a few surprising facts about vegan food!

It Can Actually Boost Your Energy

Did you know that a plant based diet can increase your metabolism?
​Plant based meals are packed with complex carbohydrates and fiber, which provide a steady stream of energy throughout the day. You get to enjoy a satisfying meal without that heavy, sluggish feeling you sometimes get after eating meat.

Indian Food is Naturally Vegan Friendly

​A huge portion of traditional Indian cuisine is naturally vegan!
​Because of the rich history of vegetarianism in India, we use lentils, chickpeas, coconut milk, and incredible spice blends to create rich, creamy, and satisfying dishes without needing any dairy or meat. You do not have to sacrifice flavor to eat plant based.

You Can Easily Get Enough Protein

One of the biggest myths is that vegans do not get enough protein.
​Ingredients like chickpeas and lentils are absolute protein powerhouses! Our Chana Masala, which is a hearty chickpea curry, is a perfect example of a protein packed meal that will keep you full and fueled for hours of exploring New Braunfels.
