I always try to find time everyday (even if it’s just for a few short minutes) to read. It doesn’t always have to be a book. Sometimes I find articles or essays online that interest me. Lately I’ve been loving The Minimalist podcast.
Unfortunately my kids were not born into a vegan lifestyle. It took a lot of research and trial & error to get them to slowly transition. Many people ask me do your kids eat the same foods you eat? Yes and no.

I’m a sucker for comfort food. Especially when it’s easy to make and good for you! This beef-less chili recipe is one that I have played around with a lot over the years (using different spices and whatnot).

I figured it’s a good time to share some tips that really helped me along my journey. Now these aren’t hard rules you have to follow.
You guys wanted quick and simple recipes, well you’ve got it! Like I mentioned before, in our home we need fast and easy dishes because we’re always on the go.
They can easily be done right in your living room – even if you have a screaming baby in the corner, toddler watching T.V., or in my case, an excited dog who is determined to exercise with you.
