Usually when I come home to the beach, I trek to the pizza joints of my youth and am happy to have a cheese-less pizza and some beach fries. My facebook friends already saw the chips, salsa, guac, and margarita shot from Tijuana Taxi on Monday. Those are generally my type of options. Now enterContinue reading “Hobos Rehoboth Beach, Delaware”

I was up bright and early this sunny Sunday morning to head into NYC for the 3rd annual Veggie Pride Parade. I met up with the NYC Vegan Eatup group at Sacred Chow in the West Village for some awesome bunchy goodness. Big thanks to Sacred Chow for opening an hour early to feed usContinue reading “Veggie Pride Parade NYC”

The theme ingredient for the 4th Veggie Conquest was potatoes. I threw down with a whole mess ‘o loaded baked potato perogies. Vegan update of a comfort food classic. The perogis are stuffed with baked russet potatoes (with the skins), tempeh bacon, broccoli, leeks, daiya cheddar cheese, and tofutti better than sour cream. They areContinue reading “Loaded baked potato perogis- Veggie Conquest 4”

No really, cheezy melty stringy nachos. I picked up some Daiya at the Whole Foods in Union Square. Check out the Daiya website for a location near you or the online stores selling it. It’s in real packaging now and word is they’re rolling it out at Whole Foods around the country. Daiya is definitelyContinue reading “Nachos!”

Well I made it off the couch and out to TWO vegan events here in Westchester, NY this afternoon. As much as I love the vegan events in NYC, sometimes it’s nice to stay close to home. This morning I went to a vegan brunch hosted by Doreen and the Vegetarian Social Network of WestchesterContinue reading “Awesome vegan Sunday – 2 events in Westchester NY!”

I feel just like Molly Ringwald in the breakfast club when I eat sushi to go. I got stuck working late and had a good half hour to kill while waiting for my train, so since I was already starving, I went looking for a snack. There are lots of places in Grand Central toContinue reading “Sushi to go”

Eh, I’ve made it before and I’ll make it again. I know it’s not in season, but the eggplants at the store looked pretty good for who knows where they came from. Anyways, I’ll remember that when I’m drowning in fresh local eggplant in the summer.The secret to a good eggplant parm is the frying.Continue reading “Eggplant parmesan”

Check out the Chipotle in Chelsea, NYC for a garden blend vegan burrito. The garden blend is vegan plant protein (I hear it’s gardein) marinated in adobo sauce and grilled. It’s a little on the spicy side, but in a good way. I recommend splurging for the guacamole to cool down the heat. This isContinue reading “Garden blend vegan burrito at Chipotle in Chelsea, NYC”

OK, I didn’t realize I miss cheese singles. You know the ones individually wrapped in plastic. I picked up some Gardein tuscan breasts and wanted a little cheesy topping, but the store I was in didn’t have much in the way of fake cheese options. So I took a chance and picked up some TofuttiContinue reading “Gardein Parm – and who knew Tofutti cheese was good?”
