Top 10 Refrigerator Vegan Essentials
Keep your refrigerator stocked with my top 10 vegan essentials and mealtime will be a breeze! A few weeks ago, I posted a list of my top 10 pantry vegan essentials. The list was full of items that I keep on hand pretty much all the time to make sure there’s always something in the…
Where Do You Get Your Protein?
The one question that I get asked more than anything else is, “Where do you get your protein?” It usually comes right after “You haven’t eaten any of the egg salad or cheese dip. Are you one of those ve-guns?” I’ve been eating this way for so long, that I’m actually kind of tired of…

It reminded me of the bowl of fake fruit we had on our…
Vegan Seitan Gyro with Tahini Sauce
Seitan, vegetables, and tahini wrapped in a whole wheat pita – a Vegan Seitan Gyro with Tahini Sauce is the perfect filling lunch! I never had a gyro in my meat-eating days, so I’m not 100% what they taste like. They seemed to me to be some sort of flesh smothered in some sort of dairy-laden…

Taco Tuesday gets a fresh update with Jenna’s Soy-Lime Seitan Tacos with Mango and Chipotle Aioli When Vegan MoFo started last week I said that Tuesdays would be dedicated to book reviews. (And boy do I have a stack of books to review!) But I had a busy weekend and I didn’t have a chance…
