It's simple! Everyone can enter! Everyone can have a chance to win! However, you have to play by the rules!
Hello everyone, it's #veganwednesday again and last weekend I got completely immersed and revved up about the vegan movement by being a part of Bali's Vegan Festival- for all you vegans out there, I have so much fun coming your way!
I am SUPER excited to be announcing some new changes to the contest that will be coming your way next week so keep an eye out for that announcement. The changes will start for week 9! =D
However, for now, let's see the winners for next week! =D

If you're new here and haven't heard of our #veganwednesday challenge yet well then come on in, we're happy to have you here! There have been a few tweaks along the way so please read the rules when entering (don't worry- it's all easy and fun!)
Creating this contest for me, is a huge piece of my heart. I love food, healing and sharing inspiration and adapting my diet truly changed my life! It's wonderful to have you here, submitting pieces of your heart to me and sharing this with the world! I love it and am so happy I started this and am hoping it only continues to grow <3
My intent is to bring awareness, conversation and relationship over the concept of veganism/plant-based foods... whether or not you are vegan does not matter! You can enter anyway!

How Winning Works:
I improved my winning system by using 
One of my absolute favourite Steemians, 
, _ _ (our very first sponsor), has graciously come into our challenge with a $5SBD prize up for grabs. Her and I both believe in inspiring through healthy, conscious food choices and so I am so honoured to have her name here in this contest as a supporter and friend of #veganwednesday! If you haven't checked out her Steemit Culinary Contest yet, go on and start cooking here!
PLEASE remember, if you don't put your link on this post, I may not find it! Also, another reminder to please mention this contest in your post... I am wanting other vegans/plant-based/foodies/interested Steemians to be able to find where we have our fun!

Rules of the game:
We had some great entries this week that missed some of our rules so please make sure to read them below!
I am notchyourmotha! I'm not here to tell you what or what not to eat but my contest, my rules so your entry must be vegan/plant-based ie: nothing can come from an animal!
As my loving and open rules state- you, yourself do not need to be vegan to enter this contest but your post does have to be! That means if it's a recipe please be sure to remember that animal products are not vegan! If you need help, feel free to comment and ask me!
What day can I enter?
Originally I had meant for this to be a Wednesday only challenge however, I've extended it so that you can enter whatever day you want (much easier for you to enter that way!), but I will release the winners for the week on Wednesdays so the cutoff for the week will be Monday at 12UTC to give me time to go through them all. If you submit after that time, don't worry! I will consider your entry for the following week!
What's love got to do with it?
Please mention this contest in your post! I am trying to get a friendly community together here with similar interests so the more people who can find us, the more we can grow, the more we can learn, the more we can love! If you meet someone vegan-licious or plant-based-tastic, invite them to join in! The more the veggier!
How to participate:
🍇🍈🍉🍊🍋🍌🍍🍎
- Post what vegan means to you! This could be anything from vegan approved recipes (no animal products) to poems, to reviews... basically I am looking for vegan related content at your discretion (must be animal friendly!)
- Tag it within #veganwednesday. If you do not tag it in #veganwednesday, sadly it can't count!
- Mention the contest in your post to promote vegan love across Steemitland!
- Post your entry on each week's update (this post will serve as this week's, so post your submissions here!)
- Only positive posts will be considered. This isn't a war * for animal rights or a call out to tell people how to live! It's a loving, caring, sharing invitation to get to know each other and support our community!
I will create a post announcing the winner each week along with any deserved mentions as to help foster a strong community bond for those of us who are trying to share our messages, love and inspiration with the world!
Your content will be evaluated on how much heart you show! Pull on my heart strings and you got yourself a prize! <3

Thanksgiving is one of the most non-vegan events in my family so having an idea like this to bring to the table is super inspiring! We can still have delicious recipes even if we have changed our diets. Thanks 
Thank you to everyone who submitted an entry this week!
This contest is a way to bring the vegan/plant-based community together and show others what is possible through inspiration! You are all filling my heart up every week! Thank you for helping me share this knowledge and inspiration!
If you or anyone you know would like to sponsor a weekly prize, give me a shout over in Discord or Steemit.chat, the vegan community would be mighty grateful to have some more incentive to reward our lovely authors for their time!
I encourage you all to connect with each other if you feel drawn to- let's make this group a loving, supportive, engaging community to call home!

I have a compelling urge to inspire and assist anyone who would like to improve their health!
I would love for you to experience the same incredible health benefits I have received from changing what I put into my body.
I hope this challenge inspires you to consider new options in your diets and serves to help us connect to each other! Please engage with me here in the comments, on steemit.chat or in Discord! I am so excited to launch this initiative and can't wait to meet new friends and see your posts!
