Forks Over Knives Chipotle Jackfruit Tacos

I’m a revised vegan

I’m a revised vegan

This will mark my 11 th month being vegan. December is my year anniversary. I went vegan for health reasons, not for the animal cruelty reason. HOWEVER, the only reason I didn’t go because of animal cruelty is because I could NEVER watch something like that and eat again and I know it. I love animals and if that makes me sound foolish or ignorant to the vegan world, I’m sorry.  Anyway, vegan opinions set aside, I made the rash…

Forks over Knives Harvest Moon Squash Soup

Forks over Knives Harvest Moon Squash Soup

I made this recipe and I have to be honest,I hated the taste with the sun dried tomatoes. However I learned a very handy tip when cooking.

I’m still Vegan, except my coffee

I haven’t talked about this topic in a while. Yep, I am still vegan,  except my coffee. I’m still adding a little bit of half-and-half, so shun me.  I  just cannot handle that non-dairy milk alone in my coffee cup. Other than that, I have no issues, no cheats, no tastes no nothing. My weight? Well I gave up my scale and I checked in this month and it’s holding steady at 150.5 lbs. Not my thinnest number but definitely…
