Vegan Foodie Friday – Vegan Fauxjita Taco’s

I must admit, I have an extremely busy life.

Don't we all 2

Sometimes I am truly amazed, to look back and see just how much I managed to accomplish in a single week.

As a Wife, Mom, Boss, Friend and Blogger; between working Full Time, attending Yoga twice a week, joining every Pagan event available, moving forward on my Spiritual journey and constantly finding new ways to expand my Vegan lifestyle-

I am one

An exhausted one at times, but I do feel extremely proud to end each week with so much accomplished.

Fridays are always a celebration for our little family.

Bre is out of school, Tom and I are off work and we can finally do whatever we want! And believe me, we all take full advantage of our favorite Saturday luxury-

sleeping in

Friday night means, for the first time all week, I can finally take my time with dinner and try out all of the amazing Vegan recipes I simply can’t afford to potentially

Screw up/ Catch on Fire/ Forget About Half Way Through/ Melt to the Stove

during our regular busy routine filled week.

Now, I have to admit, before I became Vegan, I hated cooking. I despised it. I avoided it like the plague. I sucked at it and I just couldn’t find the motivation to get any better.

 After becoming Vegan, I had a moment of clarity. It wasn’t that I hated cooking, I just couldn’t stand cooking and preparing meat.

My hands down favorite thing to hear, between mouthfuls of food is

oh my goddess

Starting my Vegan journey , at the beginning of this year, has changed my life in every possible way.

I hope this blog inspires you to make the commitment to live a Kind, Compassionate life. To make the decision to Harm None; to leave the world a little better than you found it. To support a cause greater than yourself- with every breath, every step, through every bite you take.
