Sweet Corn and Green Chili Baked Flautas – Thug Kitchen

Friendly warning: In the spirit of Thug Kitchen’s cheerful use of bad language, this blog post includes wording that might be considered offensive to some readers.

I stumbled across Thug Kitchen 6 months ago via a Chickpea Tabouleh image of theirs shared on Instagram. It read…… 

As my mischievous inner child came out, I couldn’t help but laugh and continue to look for more entertaining Thug Kitchen images. It was then that I realised, Thug Kitchen was more than just a series of savvy pictures and vulgar words; these guys actually had something important to say – Eat Like You Give a F*ck! This simple philosophy is the title of their first cookbook – which thanks to my best friends Jess [The Beauty HQ]  I now own.

Thug Kitchen started as a blog in 2012. Authors Michelle Davis and Matt Holloway wanted to encourage people to ‘eat more Goddamn vegetables’ and adopt a healthier eating lifestyle, whilst making it more fun to cook in the kitchen.

Davis and Holloway’s unusual style had the public believing there was a vulgar, over confident African American behind it all; weren’t they wrong. They are in fact two Caucasian vegans living in the sunny hills of Hollywood. With fans like Gwyneth Paltrow and Jamie Oliver, they have certainly hit the big time! This makes bloggers like me excited at the possibilities.

Thug Kitchen is full of delicious, plant based recipes that are easy to shop for and easy to cook – and I should know, I’ve made half a dozen dishes already and I’ve only had it for two weeks. B who isn’t the biggest fan of vegetarian, has even enjoyed the Thug Kitchen meals I’ve made thus far – even the one which had tofu in it! Well… I’ll be honest with you, I didn’t tell him it was in there ha ha.

Grab yourself a copy, I promise you won’t be disappointed. Here’s their Sweet corn and green chile baked flautas.
