Beyonce's 21 Day Vegan Diet Plan
It's been in the headlines a lot lately, however vegan eating isn't really all that new. It is a great way to get lean and lose the extra pounds. I believe in it - and I have personally tried it off and on with success.
I wanted to post Beyonce's vegan diet plan because I think it's a great diet to follow if you are having a hard time getting creative in the kitchen. I hope this will simply serve as a great go to meal and food list if you feel confused. Yes, it's posted online and in other places, but this is also a helpful bookmarking tool for me also! (Since this is my blog, I know where to find it!)
