How to Make a Vegan Buddha Bowl
By Shania Clark

I became a vegetarian when I was 17 years old after watching videos taken inside slaughterhouses. After seeing how horrible the conditions were, I couldn’t justify letting animals suffer and die for me to eat them when there are so many other cruelty free options. I was a vegetarian for 2 years and then I transitioned to complete vegan a year ago and I can’t imagine ever going back to meat. My interest and tireless advocation for vegetarianism has convinced several family members and friends to try more meatless options as well. Being a vegetarian and then a vegan actually sparked my interest in food; that’s why I’m pursuing a degree in nutrition. I’m excited to graduate with this degree so I can teach people that meat is not only something they can live without, but that they’ll thrive on a diet of mainly vegetables, fruits, legumes, and grains.
