Craving those smoky, savory flavors you grew up with? 👀🌱 You can recreate some of your favorite pork dishes using plant-based ingredients!

Here are a few swaps to try:

🥬 Jackfruit for pulled pork BBQ
🍄 Mushrooms for savory, bacon-style dishes and fillings
🌱 Tempeh for smoky strips or crumbles
💚 Seitan for shredded pork-style recipes
🥕 Carrots for crispy carrot bacon

Here’s the secret to getting that delicious, savory flavor: seasoning! Smoked paprika, garlic, onion powder, black pepper, liquid smoke, and your favorite BBQ sauce can make a big difference.

Experiment with these swaps in sandwiches, breakfast plates, tacos, bowls, and your favorite comfort food recipes. You might discover a new favorite along the way! 💚

This is why community matters. 🖤🌱

At Afro-Vegan Society, we believe plant-based food should be accessible, culturally relevant, and rooted in community care.

From free resources and hands-on outreach to Soulful Celebrations, we’re building something that belongs to all of us.

We need each other to keep this work going. Tomorrow is the last day to have your Summer Give-a-Thon donation doubled.

If you believe in this work, we’d love your support. 🖤

We’re Afro-Vegan Society, a Black vegan nonprofit operating 100% on donor support. And lately, securing funding has been a struggle for so many reasons.

But we’re still here creating free, accessible plant-based resources and building community. 🌱🖤

We’re trying to raise $10,000 for our Summer Give-a-Thon and every donation is being MATCHED dollar-for-dollar! 🙌🏾 And shoutout to those who have already donated… we’re nearly to our goal!

What does strength really look like? 👀

For Torre Washington, it looks like discipline, consistency, knowing your values, and being willing to choose your own path.

Torre has been vegan for more than 35 years and is a competitive natural bodybuilder. At 52, he’s still training, competing, and pushing himself to see what he’s capable of.

In our latest Black Men. Plant Powered. conversation, we talked about how he got started, growing up vegetarian, discovering Rastafari and Ital living, bodybuilding, plant-based nutrition, and why seeing more Black men thrive on a plant-based lifestyle matters.

I especially loved hearing Torre talk about not following the crowd and staying committed to what you believe in.

And his advice for anyone thinking about going plant-based?

Don’t complicate it. 🌱
