PAPAYA + LIME = SUBLIME⁣
⁣
A whole papaya with the juice of one or two limes makes a perfect light breakfast or snack anytime. There’s something about the combo of papaya and lime. Have you tried it? ⁣
⁣
If you have had papaya and didn’t like it much, adding fresh squeezed lime juice is a game changer. It brings out the sweetness and the lime juice adds a contrasting tartness. This is nature’s sweeTart!! ⁣
⁣
I upped the citrus factor here and added the juice of some lemon and orange too. So good! ⁣
⁣
Papaya is packed with nutrients - vitamins, minerals, and fiber. ⁣
⁣
What’s your favorite fruit?

Plant-based bacon y'all! Cruelty-free bacon made from plants🥦not pigs 🐷 is easy to make or find at your local grocery store. There are some great plant-based bacon products. Do you have a favorite product or recipe?⁣
⁣
✨Furthermore, if you have a vegan restaurant near you, chances are they have a plant BLT on the menu, just like this one here from @petiscovegano! This TBLT (Tempeh Bacon, Avocado, Tomato) is so delicious, packed with all the flavor, texture, and heartyness you want in a BLT and none of the cruelty or harmful elements.⁣
⁣
✨As for making vegan bacon at home, it's pretty darn easy. Look for a post on the blog coming soon! 🧡

🍥HELLO CUPCAKE!! 🍥

This beauty is from By Chloe (@eatbychloe) in NYC! They have multiple locations in the city and just opened one around Union Square. I honeslty, innocently 😜, just picked up this cupcake since it is national cupcake day, and I didn't have a good picture of a cupcake to share with you guys here. I really was planning to save it for my roommate, however, something happened after the photo shoot. I'm not proud of it. But you understand, right? 😘🧡😋🧡 By the way, By Chloe has all kinds of yummy eats, all vegan of course. Burgers, fries, sandwiches, salads, mac n' cheese, desserts, milk shakes, cupcakes, cookies, and more! Have you been? Do you have a favorite dish or dessert?
