High protein snacks that are convenient and actual High protein snacks that are convenient and actually taste good!? 😍

Balancing a busy schedule, workouts, traveling, and maintaining my energy levels as a vegan has taught me the importance of having healthy, portable, and protein-rich snacks on hand.

That’s why I’ve put together this list of my favorite vegan high protein and macro friendly snacks– both sweet and savory- to satisfy all cravings 😋 like:

@aggropops lentil puffs
@greenbitesgo protein desserts
@nugonutrition dark chocolate protein bars

Finding the right snacks doesn’t have to be a challenge!

Easy High Protein Vegan Chorizo 🔥 Textured Pe Easy High Protein Vegan Chorizo 🔥 

Textured Pea Protein (TPP) is one of my favorite plant-based sources of protein. It has amazing macros, digests well for me, is super quick and easy to prepare, and versatile for your fav recipes 🙌🏼

For one serving of this chorizo, I use:

- 35g @purisfoods TPP
- 2 tsp taco seasoning (I use @mccormickspice, no added preservatives)
- 30g @mateos_salsa mild taco sauce
- Chipotle @tabasco for some added spice

Macros per serving (just the TPP chorizo):
28P/ 6C/ 2F

Easy, delicious, and healthy 😋

You can multiply this chorizo recipe for meal prep, so it’s ready to go for delicious tacos, burritos, bowls, or however else you’d like to enjoy it throughout the week 🌮🌯 

This is a staple in my weekly meek rotation, and I hope you love it too 🫶🏼

Today marks 9 years vegan 🌱 …and my heart i Today marks 9 years vegan 🌱 

…and my heart is so full ❤️

I never could’ve imagined that this path would teach me so much about compassion, alignment, and trusting myself.

What started as a quiet curiosity turned into a life of deeper connection- to my values, my body, the Earth, and others.

I’m so grateful for every soul who’s been part of this journey: my vegan and vegetarian friends who inspire me, my non-veggie friends who’ve shown love and support, and everyone who chooses to lead with an open heart and mind. 🤍

After 9 years, I’m finally opening up to share more of my story. If it resonates with you, lifts you up, or helps you feel less alone, that means everything to me.

I’m opening a few spots for 1:1 coaching. I combine my training in subconscious and somatic healing with my knowledge as a longtime vegan to support you in feeling grounded in your body, aligned with your values, and at peace with your choices.

DM me to schedule a consult call. I’d love to walk this path with you. 🥰

Date night idea + relationship reflections ❤️⬇️ 

@moonmanveganfitness and I had a blast with this 😂

Meal deets:

App (my pick): @eatluckyfoods Veggie Spring Rolls 🌯 

Entree (Justin’s pick): @momofukugoods tingly chili wavy noodles + @beyondmeat popcorn chick’n 🍜 

Dessert (my pick): @so_delicious Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Sandwiches 🍓

Beverage (Justin’s pick): @santacruzorganic Mango Lemonade 🍋

If you don’t know our story, Justin and I met here on IG through the #veganbodybuilder hashtag 💪🏼🌱 

We’re in a long distance relationship ✈️ I live in Tampa, FL and Justin lives in Vancouver Island, Canada.

We starting dating 7 months ago today via FaceTime. 10 days later, Justin called me to tell me he was booking a flight that evening to come see me 🥹

We spent two weeks together, solidifying the incredible connection we were building 🥰 + I got to show Justin the Tampa vegan food scene 🍕🍩🍔🌮🍦

After a month apart, I got to spend 3 weeks in BC with Justin. He took me on many gorgeous hikes, and I had the best time meeting his amazing family + seeing the Island 🏔️

After another month apart, Justin spent 3 months in FL with me! We got to celebrate my birthday + our first Christmas together 🤍

We got lots of quality time with some of our best friends, the OG Vegan Squad @thebodybuildingvegan @consciouslivingwithali @yourveganmentor1 ❤️

Calling in not only this beautifully healing, conscious relationship, but also these incredibly aligned and uplifting friendships, didn’t happen by accident.

This has been a very clear intention of mine for a very long time. I feel so in awe to experience the unfolding of this manifestation 🥹

A LDR is by no means easy, especially living SO DANG FAR apart, in separate countries, at a time with a lot of uncertainty in the world, not always knowing when we’ll see each other next.

But this journey has been teaching me to stay present + trust that everything is happening for our highest good, regardless of the outcome.

Knowing Justin and I are together because we both choose every day to be is so meaningful to me. I’m forever grateful ❤️
