Episode 6. Guide to Eating Plantbased with a 9 - 5 Job

Today we are talking about eating plantbased when you have a 9 - 5 job. As someone who just celebrated 10 years at my full time job I have a lot to share on transitioning and living full plantbased while working full time in an office. I break down meal ideas for breakfast, lunch and snacks - all super easy ideas you can throw together or make the night before. Each idea is separated into if you are transitioning or if you are fully plantbased so there are ideas for everyone along the journey.
