How ’bout them apples strawberries?

The deliciousness of these veganese muffins is amazing. It helps that the strawberries have an amazing sweetness all their own that attributes to the beauty of these muffins. But still, vegan doesn’t have to be without flavor! 🙂

I applaude those who follow a vegan diet. I don’t think I could do it. Just having to go dairy free for Liam’s sake is hard enough! But, I have to admit, my soy and almond milk lattes are pretty incredible. They taste like cookies…even with the unsweetened milk. Mmm!

On another note, with Logan’s help watching little Liam, I made 5 new recipes this weekend! I can’t wait to share them with you soooooon!

Now, go eat your breakfast.
