As I mentioned a few months ago, I’ve been trying to make food during the weekend that Brian and I can take to school as a hot lunch.  My favorite recipes make a lot of food with little effort and require few dishes or utensils at work. Last week I made Curried Brown Rice with [...]

Getting to Know Nutritional Yeast

Contrary to popular belief, I never set out to be one of those people who eats weird food.  Healthier food, maybe.  Homemade food, definitely.  But I’m not really interested in being known for my strange food choices.  In fact, I tend to shy away from trendy ingredients.  So, while a lot of other healthy living [...]

Guest Post: Jessica's Vegan Peanut Sauce

Jessica and I met last August at the Healthy Living Summit.  Unlike myself, who could only handle it for a week, Jess went vegan for the entire month of February.  I asked if she’d share with you her experiences, and her favorite recipe, from this month.  I can’t wait to make this sauce!  Thanks Jess!

I Survived the Vegan for a Week Challenge

A week ago, I started the Vegan for a Week Challenge, vowing to give up meat, eggs, milk, and butter for 7 days.  Here’s my thoughts, in summary: The Good Everything I ate this week was really tasty-who says vegan has to be boring? My body felt good and I had energy.  Which is to [...]

Dining Out Vegan (Vegan, Days 5 and 6)

Last night I went into Albany to meet  with the CDNY Eat Drink Blog ladies at New World Bistro Bar.  The event had been plan long before the Vegan for a Week Challenge and when I took on the challenge, I’d originally forgotten all about dinner. Luckily, New World Bistro has a vegan menu.  I [...]

Pizza without Cheese (Vegan, Days 3 & 4)

Suddenly I’m remembering why I don’t post everything I eat, or even every day.  I’m boring! I’m still going strong on the vegan challenge; its almost hard to believe that its more than half over.  If you missed the recap of the first couple days, check it out.  I haven’t posted since because I really [...]

Avocado Pasta (Vegan, Days 1 & 2)

Brian and I are just over 2 days into the Vegan for a Week Challenge and it’s so far, so good.  I don’t usually record and post all of my meals, but for the sake of the challenge, I’m going to post most of them this week. We started off Sunday evening with a stir [...]

Let the Vegan Challenge Begin!

When my blogger-friend Morgan emailed me last Tuesday inviting me to join in on her Oprah-inspired Vegan for a Week Challenge, I was initially skeptical.  Could I do it?  Did I want to?  Was it worth it?  But after a brief internal debate, I decided to join in.  I’ll be giving up meat, eggs, butter and milk [...]

2 years ago when I started on this journey, people kind of looked at me funny when I told them I was cutting back my meat consumption.  Now I find that anytime I bring up food, those around me (and I’m talking coworkers and people at church, not just other food bloggers) aren’t shocked by [...]
