You think vegan = boring? Think again! I’ll bet some of my favorite vegan snacks are things you already enjoy, and any you haven’t tried you are sure to love as much as I do. Part of the reason I went vegan was to fuel my body better, but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy these tasty, and often nutritious, treats. That’s why I put together this list of my favorite go-to snacks! Read more

Admittedly, I am late to the game. I am fortunate to have a Trader Joe’s a block from my house, but it is a VERY popular location and the line out the door has always been a deterrent. Until now! I found that 10:30am is the sweet spot to get in without a wait, so after much encouragement from my mom, my friend Stacey and SO many vegan friends I took the plunge. Read more
This is a prime example of the magic of NYC! Recently I had the distinct pleasure of attending a private 7-Course Plant-Based dinner prepared by Mario Buccellati of Mariolino’s Vegan Italian Kitchen. The food was indescribable (Seriously cannot tell you how good it was… Just look at it!) and every single thing was made from scratch, including the plant-based cheese! Even if you aren’t plant-based you will LOVE this food and experience and I highly recommend it. Read more
When COVID hit in March I decided to try out Sakara Life, a plant-based meal service. With virtual school and all the stress of quarantine life I needed something convenient, but I found I really enjoyed the food and rapidly started to feel so much better. My skin looked healthier.
