Back with another recap once again, baby! It’s only the third day, and I pretty much was spoiled with more food in one sitting than I used to eat in a week prior to my vegan days. My stomach already feels like bursting just looking at all of the photos! The first part of my … More Day 3 in Vietnam: Cute Cousin + Vegan Food (LOTS of It)
Ciao, blog family! Fun fact: ciao is how people say hello in Vietnamese! From what I experienced, a lot of locals are more abrasive and say, “Ay!” Anyhow, I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted another recap of my trip to Vietnam, but don’t worry, they are ready and they are coming your … More Day 2 in Vietnam: Herbal Medicine Temple
While I adore my spicy eggplant and tofu satay, curry has always been my number one go-to order at any Thai restaurant. Until NOW. Oh Pad Thai–it just screams comfort food. Spicy, sweet, sticky, tangy, and savory comfort food. Before my health journey, I loved to inhale Pad Thai without any utensils! Unfortunately, Pad Thai is most … More Eggplant Pad Thai (healthy + vegan..with a Paleo option!)
With the diversity in our food and the knowledge of macro and micro-nutrients we have at our disposal, it can be extremely puzzling to decide which foods to consume in order to obtain the nutrients sought after.

Think of the most accepted macronutrient in the diet industry. Does protein come to mind? Well, I would be surprised if you thought differently. It is common knowledge that protein is considered the builder of muscle, the catalyst of metabolic and biochemical reactions, the healer of injury and illness, and of course, the godsend for … More Peek-a-BHU! Bhu Fit Review (vegan and non-vegan bars)
Are you somebody that’s usually very, very, very hard on yourself? I one hundred and ten-percent am that individual who will get so worked up about making even the tiniest slip-up on anything. If I don’t have a good workout, if I have too much dessert one night, if I make a careless mistake on a quiz, … More Being Vegan: It’s Okay to Make Mistakes
Do you want to know how long I’ve tried searching up the actual name of this dish for? FIVE. YEARS. And I still don’t know what the heck this dish is really called. You could arguably say that this is a different take on pad krapow or aka ground chicken with basil, except this is made with ground … More Pea Turkey Bed (high protein + gluten free)
As of now I tell myself it’s going to be scorching hot every single day. To be honest, that’s not always the case, but everything heats up and the sun generally comes out by 11 A.M. at least every other day. The weather is at a certain degree where it’s too hot to enjoy something … More Decadent Chocolate Smoothie Bowl (with a secret ingredient!)
