Still going strong!

It has been about two weeks now, and we are still going strong!  As I continue to prep daily, I have been using a lot of recipes off of Pinterest, and I have found some youtube videos that have been really helpful.  I really like Pick Up Limes, and I am going to use a lot of her ideas!  You can find her website here: https://www.pickuplimes.com/.   She provides a lot of ideas using bento boxes.  After we move, that will be our next purchase because there is something fun about having your lunches in cute little containers.

We have to get back to prepping because I feel as though I waste $ buying food every few days when I can prepare a bunch on the weekend and have it ready for the week.  I want to prepare some quick breakfasts and snacks for sure!

Yesterday I made a tofu scramble with avocado and potatoes.  It was delicious!  I got the idea for the scramble from here: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/121315783696057656/.  I added a few more spices (I use creole seasoning a lot) and have learned that with vegan recipes, there are a few ingredients that you always seem to use-onions, garlic, and peanut butter!  😆  I am allergic to nuts, so it does make it pretty challenging for me, but so far, so good.  I use sunflower butter and that is fine for me.  Here is a picture of my tofu scramble that we ate the other day:



Keep up with recipes I save and will mostly likely cook on my Pinterest:  https://www.pinterest.com/breannaevans12/our-vegan-life/

I am enjoying eating all of this food!  We also juice daily as well to make sure we take in tons of veggies and fruits daily (I am lazy).  It is just easier for me to drink it all at once knowing I will get my servings per day.  Also, we have been making fresh watermelon juice and lemonade as well.  So so good!  This helps with water intake throughout the day because I am used to drinking vitamin waters and other flavored waters.  I want to drink natural stuff, so this is good for us!

Well that's it for now...

Pray for ya sista!

My First Day

Today was the first day where I really am making an effort and wanting to try a vegan life.  I have eaten vegan foods, in fact, I have made vegan dishes before, so it is not foreign to me.  I decided to take this journey with my wife so we can experience this together.  I was not fully on board at first.  I like cheese! I like eggs! I like chicken and I LOVE bacon!  But after thinking about my health and my weight, I know it won't hurt to try.  I figured since I cook for my wife, I mind as well make the food for both of us.    Here is a video of my feelings right before I left to go to Sprouts: Thank goodness I had our friends Courtney and Emmerson with me!  They showed me a few products and said a few do's and don'ts.  It was informative and liberating. Some of the items I purchased: Salad items of course (spinach, lettuce, fresh veggies) Squash (I like to use zucchini noodles instead of regular noodles) Oranges Olives from the ...

Tofu tastes good!

Hello😊  I am excited to share another day with you!  I have a bunch of support that I didn't realize we had, and that makes it even better.  Today a friend of ours called and gave me encouraging words and some websites to help us with our journey.  They have been doing it for 21 days, and are really satisfied with their choice.  They live in a small town with little access to many vegan choices, so that can be very irritating to find foods to eat. Here is a website they recommend: http://www.pcrm.org/kickstartHome/mealplan/original-menu  Also, my wife is out of town on business, and she struggled with finding quick bites to eat in a really small town because everything closed early.  That is a little nerve racking and it can cause a bad choice of eating whatever.  The lesson I learned from that is to pack snacks because you never know what situation you might be in! So today's meal was fun and easy to prepare, and it was very delicious!  ...
