We Love our Vegan Meals! / Amamos nuestros platicos veganos!
And no, we are not vegans, but we love our vegan meals. As I mentioned in my Book , I went from being vegan to vegetarian to pescetarian, to finally just finding what was right for me! We eat a little bit of almost everything but always the best quality possible. And still more than 50% of our meals are completely plant based!
You have to find that balance that works for you! And trust me that everyone will benefit from plant based meals with no exception. One of my best tips (and so basic that it's almost a no brainer) for being healthy is to ALWAYS include veggies in all our meals!! (thats the trick ;) )
