Raw Vegan Snickers Slice
One of the most important things for me after going Vegan was to ensure I wasn't missing out on anything. Snickers were absolutely one of those things, so of course, I had to find a way to make a dairy-free version. I chose the most natural ingredients I could find to mimic the flavours of a Snickers bar, and they unintentionally turned out gluten-free, so it just keeps getting better!

Go Vegan! Why Not?
Vegetarianism and veganism are two lifestyles that aren't typically or thoroughly thought about, and that's a problem. I know... the scary V words. Growing up, my parents put meat on my plate just about everyday. I had never thought about it until just recently. As one grows up, they grow apart from traditions they were used to and lifestyles that they once pursued. When you're growing up, you step back and look at the world with a realistic point of view. Riding your bike turns into driving to high school, television shows with your parents turn into hour long talks about your future, reality strikes and you're not a kid anymore. I think while one is maturing, it is critical to think about your diet. What are you putting into your body? Animals. The same things that you lay in bed with, the same creatures that you play ball with and walk in the park beside. Think about that.

Is Eating Meat Becoming Obsolete?
As veganism and vegetarianism continues to rise and grow in popularity, replacing the consumption of meat with near identical plant-based alternatives that are not only healthier, but much better for the environment and, in my experience, most of the time taste better, one question continues to come to my mind.

We Need to Talk About Why You Haven't Gone Fully Vegan Yet
Pull up a chair. Let’s jump straight in with an epic example of lifestyle contrast: Me in 2013: Sitting down to a Domino's meat feast-type pizza once a week Roast lamb is a must for every Christmas dinner Cheese makes any meal better (cue Caroline’s special melted cheese in instant noodles extravaganza) A meal is also just a bit boring without some kind of meat or fish in it, right? It’s kind of empty. How am I meant to feel full? Yes, I was ‘fit’ (I had just run a 10k race in this photo), but I wasn’t fueling my body well or performing as well as I could have

Veganism: A Work in Progress
Two and a half years ago, I transitioned to a Vegan lifestyle after being vegetarian for 28 years and it was something I’d wanted to do for a while but never thought I could. I had absolutely no understanding of what a Vegan diet looked like. I always thought it seemed so ‘extreme.’ I had already omitted meat and fish from my diet and I wondered if I took dairy away, what would be left? How would I survive on a few vegetables?

Vegan and Gluten Free, from Scratch
Hey everyone! Who says vegan food can't be delicious? Okay I admit, when I first began adopting a plant-based diet, I was convinced food was going to suck. Add going gluten free for health reasons to that, and I was certain my future deliciousness would be pretty grim. Lucky for me, I was wrong!
