Hello everyone! I have not posted on the blog for a while. My life has changed quite a bit from the last time I shared my whereabouts but I’m ready to stay a bit more active on this platform. My family moved to a whole other country in the middle of COVID-19. To tell you the truth, ever since I knew about my mom’s plans to settle in another country, I have felt down and even depressed for months. Despite this, now that they’re officially safe and out there and their quarantine period is over, I am feeling much more positive. I started school not long ago, I want to work towards a degree in Nutritional Science since I am still very passionate about food and helping people (and myself) to eat better every day. I am also working full time at Home Depot so I have kept myself pretty busy. Anyways, that was just a short update on my life.

Today, I would like to share with you the best and most scrumptious grilled cheese sandwich I have ever had. It has two kinds of vegan cheese, vegan deli slices AND vegan bacon. And that’s not even the best part: It is accompanied with a delicious tomato soup! Honestly, this tomato soup kind of reminded me of the red sauce that’s used for pupusas. It’s super rich and will make you feel like you are at a restaurant as soon as you try it along this yummy grilled cheese sandwich!

Vegan Grilled Cheese + Tomato Soup

I would like to introduce to you a quick, easy Monday night dish that everyone in your family will love. It's GRILLED CHEESE and the best part is that it's vegan. I normally don't like relying too heavily on vegan meat and cheese replacers but this time I had to do an exception: you simply cannot skip trying this grilled cheese at least once in your lifetime.
