TVP sounds like something you would want to pour in to the engine of your car. Its more glamorous name is Textured Vegetable Protein. When you have been cursed with such a utilitarian name, you really have to come through in other ways, which in some ways it does. You can find TVP in most […]

I love a beautifully dressed salad. All the veggies that I adore floating on a bed of my favorite greens, waiting for a light rain of a salad dressing I can crave. That is what I have found in the two creations being served up by a family owned company called Middle Eastern Delites. We […]

We tried a package of Gardein Classic Style Buffalo Wings. I found them in the freezer of the “health food” section of our grocery retailer. They are like the new Morningstar Farms, becoming more available in the average grocery store. To say that they were delicious would be like saying winning the Lotto would be […]

Just saying the term Sunday Dinner brings up a vision of something wonderful. The feeling that it creates is inherent like the way you know how to sneeze. That feeling has not lingered in my consciousness since becoming vegetarian thirteen years ago. That all changed the day that Sandy mastered the art of the Tofurkey […]

The first in a long line of dairy replacements is our soy coffee creamer. I am a Splenda and fat free cream coffee drinking gal. I am incredibly quiet and can lean toward unpleasant until I have had two cups. That being said, this was a colossal test of great consequence in our house. I […]
