WHAT DO VEGANS EAT?!? I get asked all the time, and as a new vegan I’m learning to prepare fresh, delicious food that’s beneficial for ME, for ANIMALS, and for OUR PLANET. Sustaining a nourishing plant-based diet will require being creative, conscious and conscientious in my food choices. Here I’ll share a “learn as I go” adventure on the path to healthy, happy, VIBRANT VEGANISM! Follow as my food evolution unfolds and maybe you’ll even be inspired to join me...
