Family gatherings are one of the most challenging situations for vegans and health nuts. Your auntie urges you to try some of her self-made dishes, and you don't know how to resist, even though they will make you feel crappy afterwards. Your cousin makes fun of your "special diet" and you feel like there's barely anything for you to eat. Let's change it around this year!
Breakfast bars come in all shapes and sizes. From crunchy to chewy, soft, fruity, or nutty – we love all variations of this convenient and tasty snack. But beware, not all oat bars are vegan and not all vegan oat bars are healthy.
When you’re starting out on a plant-based diet, you’re looking for change. Some of us want to reduce the harm that’s done to animals, others care about preserving nature… but for most, feeling better in their bodies is what they are craving most.
When most of us first go vegan, we kind of just eat whatever plant-based foods we have on hand and consider tasty. Not much thought is wasted on meeting all of our nutritional needs because we didn’t grow up worrying about this. But with all of the media attention veganism has been getting lately, more and more people are getting discouraged from trying to cut out animal products.
As you might have noticed, we’re totally carb-lovers here. And, luckily, this doesn’t stand in the way of us eating tons of healthy food! Honestly, we couldn’t imagine a life without comfort meals like vegan lasagna, pizza, or anything similar that comes out of the oven.
Hey, we're Alena & Lars and this is the place where we share our love & tips for plant-based eating and the vegan lifestyle.
