One of the important aspects of helping to share vegan dishes with friends and family is to create flavor and food experiences that are similar to their non-vegan counterparts.

I found a video floating around Facebook yesterday and it made me laugh out loud. It is a parody of one of the High Fructose Corn Syrup touting commercials launched by the Corn Refiners Association. You know the one where one mommy calls out another over pouring her children glasses of pink liquid made with […]

Over the weekend as we were creating the menu for our Meatless Monday Meals to go, I came across an old recipe that I had clipped out of a magazine for Buttermilk Dill Pepper biscuits.

We have hosted Mind Expanding Movie Nights at our house where we have experienced slaughterhouses, GMO’s, corporate cover ups and greed centered around the food industry.

Last night we co-hosted the most exciting event. Our friend Jo wanted to offer a screening of the movie Forks Over Knives at our local library.
