I love peanut butter. I love it like an addiction, something I can’t live without….like air. I crave desserts made with it, enjoy entrees created with it and enjoy it sitting atop a huge soup spoon. I usually enjoy that last one when no one is home like its a fifth of vodka hidden in […]

A month ago or so I shared with you that Sandy and I had launched 2 Edgy Veggies Meatless Monday Meals to go. The idea was to create a gourmet vegan meal-for-one that the client could pick up on Monday morning. They would have a hand crafted meal that had been prepared for them with […]

Convenience is a critical part of any meal plan. If I can replicate it or make it in a brisk amount of time, I will try. I think that is the reason Broccoli Slaw was invented. It was created by busy people that wanted to eat well on a budget with the opportunity to bust […]

A few days ago I posted a green chili cornbread recipe. It was my first foray into vegan cornbread. The flavor was mild and pretty delish. I am definitely a cornbread lover. I admire it for its ability to accept other flavors and textures, like a blank slate for creativity. Just throw it in and […]

Happy Meatless Monday my friends. Many times when someone finds out that I am vegan they feel compelled to tell me,” I would be vegan if I didn’t have to give up……fill in the blank.”I have found that blank is usually cheese. Its funny because after a year and a half of hearing that, I […]

It’s nearing the launch of the holiday season as Thanksgiving is only a month away. For many, this November dinner feast is the initial family gathering, kicking off festivities that are centered around food and traditions. The standard centerpiece for most families is a turkey, complete with all the trimmings. I’ve been vegetarian for 14 […]

This is the double delicious leftover recipe from yesterday’s squash risotto. What could be better than a simple, e-z to create vegan meal that loves you back twice? I took a portion of the squash risotto from last night and made it into a second dish that took only minutes to prepare. I added a […]

Kale Trail Update As we drove to the Metropark for our first 13 mile run the wind howled and the Veggie Van shook. I thought,”Why today wind and rain? Why today?” Photo By: S. Duquet I would have thought that since a week ago we had just rocked out 12 miles that 13 would be […]

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. […]
