🌱Don’t forget to eat for energy and fuel ⚡️💚✅

🌱Tip: When planning my meals, I like to make the proteins and vegetables the STAR of my meal vs just substituting the protein for a processed meat alternative ! Many of these processed meat alternatives contain high levels of sodium and may contain ingredients we aren’t even familiar with !

🌱Try your best to focus on Whole Foods, fruits, and vegetables for a balanced and healthy plate ! Do what makes your body feel most alive !

Lunch : Vegan Pollo Asada Fries using Vegan Daring Lemon and Herb Chicken 🤤🤤

Give this meat alternative a 8/10 ! Texture is pretty much on point but be sure not too overcook or it can become rubbery ! Every time I give this product to regular meat eaters they’re blowwwwwn away !

Vegan Duck up close and personal 🤤🤤

Popular question I always get is are soy meats and vegan meats really healthier than the real deal . My best answer to that is yes because you’re not consuming any of the animals fat , energy, stress, or hormones and keeping a healthy balance . Vegan meats can be highly processed , making it hard to break down so it’s good to keep a balance of Whole Foods and real plants along with your store bought alternatives! Limit your intake and consume in your cheat days !

Going vegan doesn't have to be so complicated.
I was in the mood to veganize this recipe and decided to use mushrooms as my meat alternative/substitution. Paired it with a side of Spanish Rice, oh my was it full of so much flavor!

Crispy Cornflake Coated Banana Blossoms , Mashed Japanese Purple Potato , Steamed Broccolini , Sweet Chili Date Syrup

I Love cooking with Banana Blossoms so much 💚 ! Makes an amazing plant based alternative for fish, chicken , or crab due to its nice and flaky texture.
✅Banana blossoms contain potassium, calcium, vitamins A, C, and E and fiber !
✅You can find banana blossoms at your local Asian supermarket and I’m now starting to see more of Vegan Products at popular grocery stores like Target & Walmart so that’s super cool ! 💪🏾🥹👀

Guess what y’all ? I no longer identify as vegan… well kinda but technically not haha my pronouns are now simply PLANT BASED🤪🌱LMAO

Just wanted to talk a bit about the challenges I faced while on my vegan journey that pushed me to make the switch to a plant based diet ➡️:

What’s the difference between plant based and vegan ?
🌱plant based is a diet ; diet consists mainly of plants but not limited to meat , seafood , eggs, or dairy.

🌱vegan is a lifestyle ; doesn’t support any animal cruelty from food, clothing, makeup, etc …

REASONS WHY I MADE THE SWITCH:
🌱While grocery shopping I was always limiting myself. I may still enjoy a product but Just because it may not be 100% vegan , I always felt guilty like the vegan gods were judging HARD . 😅

🌱I first made the decision to let go of meat and dairy due to health reasons. Along the way I further educated myself on the ethical and environmental reasons people go vegan. I found myself more interested in the diet and doing what feels good to my body as opposed to the whole lifestyle . I didn’t feel like a “true vegan” if my morals weren’t the same so I looked more into it ! It always felt like a lot of pressure !

🌱I sometimes spent more money on dairy and cheese replacements to ensure I’m staying in the “ vegan box”! They gave me more gas and stomach pains than the actual products that had milk and dairy yoo🤬from that moment I decided to give my body some space & less limits .

All in all, I’m just focusing on strengthening my mind, building my body, and doing what makes my soul happy 🌞

Be yourself but always your BETTER SELF ✨🌺🦋

These past few months I’ve seen so many opportunities come my way just from me authentically being who I am and living my truth. I always ask myself “what is it that I’m doing that’s attracting all of this positivity and blessings and why me ?..” and I think its perseverance and simply choosing to never give up on myself ! Seeing a vision for yourself and doing whatever you can to get closer to that dream / reality ! Never stop being ya biggest cheerleader and never stop working towards your dreams 🦋✨🏆💚

PS enjoy this rare sighting of me in something other than my work clothing lmfaoooo🤪🤪🤪my mama keep telling me to switch up my wardrobe cause she always see me in work or gym clothing as if I don’t ONLY go to work or the gym lmfaaaaao🤷🏾‍♀️🤣 💚
