    The best meals and desserts to bring to friends in need

    So it's the end. After 10 long months of pregnancy, the final countdown is on! I can't even begin to explain my excitement to finally get this little one out and meet him. Not only is pregnancy tough on me and my body, but this one was a bit of a surprise, so it took some time for me to come to terms with the fact that I had to go through it again.

    Not because I didn't want any more kids, I love my boys and to have another little thing to devour with love is amazing, but I really really don't do well in pregnancy. I get super sick and pretty much need to be on medication the whole time, I'm a small person so get uncomfortable and in pain very easily and worst of all I am prone to blood clots and unfortunately did develop another one just a week ago.

    But back to the fact that I'm finally approaching the finish line! My body is ready to go and so now I just sit and wait...or in true me style, NOT sit and wait! I'm doing everything I can to meet this little boy!

    So with a new baby comes the offer from others to help, and much of that help comes in the form of food. I'm constantly asked for recipe ideas from friends on what they can make for others and now what they can make for me. Well what better than a round up of awesome vegan healthy recipes to pass on?!

    I'm sure I'm not the only one who needs these ideas so hopefully this roundup will be passed on to many others! Hope you enjoy and find this collection as useful as I did! I'm starting with some awesome meals...and then if you scroll all the way to the bottom, you'll find a collection of desserts, because who in the world doesn't appreciate a healthy delicious dessert being dropped off?!

      What a great roundup! And thanks so much for including my freezer burritos. I always take a batch of them to new moms since they're perfect for eating with one hand! I hope you get to meet your little guy soon and that all goes smoothly. I'm also prone to blood clots, so totally feel your pain there. Best wishes!

        Thank so much for submitting Katie! They look great and an awesome thing to have ready when those moments of starvation hit! Lol. Thanks for the well wishes, hoping he comes soon! Yes, blood clots are the worst and so scary. Luckily mine is superficial again, but we are watching closely.
