Vegan myths blood work proof

Vegan myths blood work proof

When I decided to eat vegan, I heard from many people; you won’t get enough protein, you be deficient in vitamins or you’ll be hungry because you can only eat salad. I’m now vegan for 9 months and I have proof that none of that is true. When I first became vegan I did loose about 8 pounds but that weight has returned and doesn’t fluctuate much. I can attribute some of that to a change in exercise due to…

Vegan Sloppy Joe’s

Vegan Sloppy Joe’s

I got this recipe from the minmalist baker.  https://minimalistbaker.com/vegan-sloppy-joes/ I made it the other day and was so happy. I tried it in a sandwich but that was just way to messy. I ended up putting it over brown rice and it was perfect. Yummy, tangy, with a little kick. I promise this recipe won’t disappoint. My one warming would be the lentils. I let my lentils be a little under cooked so they had a little crunch to them….

Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I’ve posted this recipe before and I’m putting it up again, why? Because it is DELICIOUS!!! Actually it is because, I gave up white sugar and buying foods made with sugar, which includes my vegan cookies I eat almost daily. I decided if I’m going to consume sugar, I’m going to be the one making the recipe so I can account for the actual type of sugar and the amount of sugar used. Ingredients: 1⁄3 cup almond butter 2 tablespoons…

My Vegan Life

My Vegan Life

Except my morning coffee, I’ve had no issues becoming vegan. I actually like it. It definitely has its challenges though. I was at a graduation party yesterday, of course, I couldn’t eat a thing. I always prepare beforehand when going on these ventures though, so for me it doesn’t become an issue. Yesterday, I ate before I went so I wouldn’t be hungry. At other events, I’ve brought my own food to heat up or brought a vegan veggie burger…
