Corn Chowder Ingredients 1 small onion sea salt freshly ground black pepper 6 cloves garlic 6-7 cups low-sodium vegetable stock 6 cups corn 1 large russet potato 1 red bell pepper 1…
When I decided to eat vegan, I heard from many people; you won’t get enough protein, you be deficient in vitamins or you’ll be hungry because you can only eat salad. I’m now vegan for 9 months and I have proof that none of that is true. When I first became vegan I did loose about 8 pounds but that weight has returned and doesn’t fluctuate much. I can attribute some of that to a change in exercise due to…
I got this recipe from the minmalist baker. https://minimalistbaker.com/vegan-sloppy-joes/ I made it the other day and was so happy. I tried it in a sandwich but that was just way to messy. I ended up putting it over brown rice and it was perfect. Yummy, tangy, with a little kick. I promise this recipe won’t disappoint. My one warming would be the lentils. I let my lentils be a little under cooked so they had a little crunch to them….

My blog is 1 year old tomorrow. I just woke up one day and said I want to write a blog. I didn’t know who would ever read it or exactly what I was going to say, I just knew I was going to be honest. I knew I was going to write about my life and struggles with MS, my daughter, dating, and my dogs. So much has changed in the last year since I started writing. My dog…
This was one of my first vegan recipes I tried. I was so excited to cook something that was relatively easy and extremely tasty. Since I didn’t cook, this recipe was my open door into the vegan world, where I realized I could do this. 7 months later, still vegan. Chef Del’s Mushroom Stroganoff Ingredients 2 large shallots 4 cloves garlic 2 tsp minced thyme salt & pepper 1 tsp minced rosemary 1 lb. portobello mushrooms 1 oz porcini mushrooms…
