Vegan Pregnancy Meals: What I’ve Been Eating in Second Trimester
And just like that, eating way way better in my second trimester. The first tri was up, down, and all over the place. And don’t get me wrong, I will spoil myself and give in to my Oreo craving, but I’m eating a lot of good stuff to make up for the junky cravings. Still all about fresh fruit, avocado (SO MUCH AVOCADO), vegan cream cheese, burritos, etc. Also happy that I am still enjoying my usual oats for breakfast.
One of the junkier cravings I have been having is mug cake (this happened my last pregnancy, too). I am obsessed with this recipe. It’s my go-to.
