4/25 Evolve Campaign

Last night I found one of the most compelling videos inspiring compassionate living that I have ever seen. It was direct and unambiguous. In place of the frequently common, night terror inducing video images of animal cruelty, were carefully placed and  impactful images. The absence of excessive gore sucked me in and I was immediately […]

4/13 Tempeh Salad

Image Courtesy of ibunoor@wordpress.com I love tempeh. I love it tossed with veggies, made into panninis and out of the pan bloated with Tamari. It is nutty and filling and chewy in a pleasant way.I love that it is so inexpensive while tasting so incredibly rich. It is abundant in all things good and lacking […]

As veg interested,  food loving people…I would imagine you all have your favorite, go-to stir fry recipes. I have a mental grocery list of things that I need to have when contemplating a stir fry meal.

12/12 Champagne Brunch

Happy Meatless Monday. Today we are celebrating the most civilized of all meals, champagne brunch. I love champagne and I love brunch. Together they create an experience, a coming of age for breakfast. Brunch is more like a beloved guest you would invite rather than just the meal you would consume. It is fancy and […]

11/28 Home Again

Happy Meatless Monday. I have missed sharing with you in daily blog posts and am so glad to be back here again with Exploits friends.  We were without internet access throughout our entire trip. It was both a blessing and a nightmare. Deadlines were missed and blog posts sat in Word document purgatory. I have […]

11/15 Ambercup Squash Tostadas

I have found that my desire for fresh cooked squash is frequently stifled by my lack of  desire to prep the squash. Most winter squash varieties require  a chain saw to cut and cube. Sometimes it is more of a commitment than I want to make for a meal. Photo By: S. Duquet So, yesterday […]

10/18 Green Chili Cornbread

Cornbread is divine. I like it sweet and I also like it savory. I like it with melted vegan butter and I also like it plain. Shaped like a muffin or in a tantalizing triangular slice…it is the right addition to any soup, chili or stew. This was my first attempt at veganizing cornbread from scratch. […]

10/10 The Leftover Diner

Happy Meatless Monday. In honor of Canadian Thanksgiving, I have used Canada’s Meatless Monday logo. If I were celebrating Thanksgiving today I would want a heaping plate of all things veg,  so I could truly give thanks for my body, my health and the amazing vitality and peace of mind that comes with eating a […]
