Being Vegan

I keep getting a lot of questions about my new found Veganism lifestyle. The number one question I get is:

"Where are you getting your protein from?"

If you research the top plant based protein sources, you'll learn a lot. If you live in America, however; I can't agree with eating Soy based anything. Click here to read up on this subject and find out why most Soy isn't great.

Another thing to be cautious about is anything that says "natural flavors" on it. I just learned this recently. Basically, those labels are a big fat lie and really mean that you're probably eating Beaver butt glands. Look it up for yourself if you don't believe me. 

Anyway.... back to the subject at hand here, you should know plants have plenty of protein!! 

I can hardly believe how many people DO NOT know that plant based foods are full of protein. Quinoa has become my favorite, go-to food and it's packed with protein. Lentils, beans, legumes, nuts, sprouts, leafy greens (like kale and spinach) and even avocados are all things I've been incorporating into my diet to get enough protein. 

Nutritional yeast is also my new favorite seasoning (it has B12 in it). This seasoning has pretty much replaced every cheese source I ever had in a meal.

Rest assured, I'm doing just fine and I love being Vegan!
