Thanks to my Dad for emailing me this amazing recipe from Mark Bittman’s “The Minimalist” in the NY Times. He sent it on Saturday. On Sunday morning I went to Whole Foods, picked up the ingredients and made it for my husband and our good friend for lunch. Perfection! Here is a list of ingredients [...]
For years my husband and I ate cereal every morning. We grew increasingly tired of it but didn’t feel like we had any other low maintenance options. That is until we considered smoothies. For a few months now we’ve been drinking banana/peanut butter smoothies for breakfast and they are divine! Filling, yummy, healthy, raw and [...]
I don’t know about you but I’ve been waiting for this for quite some time. It’s finally here. Lauren Ulm’s vegan cookbook. And if it’s anything like her fantastic blog, it’s going to be awesome. I’m ordering my copy right now. Here my dears are some of the recipes you will find inside: Blueberry Waffles [...]
While shopping in Whole Foods I’m often tempted by interesting and yummy looking items. I’ve tried many a new food simply just by browsing through the sections. On Monday I saw a new item in the tofu/faux meat/vegenaise section. Vegi-Delight Zing Salad. It’s raw. It’s vegan. It’s really good for you. The ingredients are: Cabbage, [...]
I couldn’t decide which to blog about today so my choice was to blog about both. Fried green tomatoes and a feel good elephant story. Vegan Yum Yum has posted a brand new recipe for fried green tomatoes. I’ve seen the movie. I’ve heard of the dish. I’ve never eaten them. Nor do I know [...]
Vegan is no longer a scary word in the food world. I was so happy when my dad sent me an article by Mark Bittman about 101 simple salads for the summer. The first 36 of the salads were vegan! And then the next 18 or so were vegetarian. That’s over half of the salads [...]
Vegan Yum Yum just posted a new pancake recipe. Now she has two. I tried the last one and it was delicious. I can’t wait to try this one – she claims it’s even better. I certainly have a weak spot in my self control when it comes to pancakes. Actually, any breakfast food. But [...]
Now that the vegan diet is more accepted, and dare I say it, even cool, there are more and more cookbooks coming out. Frankly, I’m a little overwhelmed. I keep getting amazon recommendations for new cookbooks but I don’t know which ones are good and which ones are “eh.” I currently own the following: Vegan [...]
Vegan Yum Yum is one of my favorite veg websites around. Fantastic recipes, beautiful pictures, and a step by step process on how to do it all. Lauren’s most recent recipe is for Cinnamon Buns – like Cinnabun buns – remember those nasty delicious things from the days before you were vegan. Oozing sugar and [...]
On Saturday morning at Whole Foods, I picked up some Vegenaise. Up until now I had always avoided it. It looked too much like the real thing, which frankly I always thought looked gross. All the same, it stared me down every time I went shopping beckoning me to try it. After years of actively [...]
