Hey everyone,
My hubby and I are going to be in Montreal for a few days at the end of the month. There used to be a vegan B&B there but it appears to have closed. Does anyone have any other...
I was recently diagnosed with "dangerously" low vitamin D levels...Am taking supplements but the exhaustion is almost crippling.
Anyone who's dealt with this or know someone who's dealt with...
I definitely enjoy food more now, as a vegan, for two basic reasons:
1) I now know how to cook. In fact, when I decided to go vegan, I quickly decided I must also learn to cook immediately. I was...
I recently made the cheezy sauce to drizzle over tacos and quite enjoyed it.
So I just bought a bookstore which sells used books. I've been running the place no problems for almost two weeks but this morning I saw a big rat run through the main room and downstairs and into...
The chickpea noodle soup is tasty and comes together easily. :)
I think if I had to choose only one, I might get the new one. But the second, Vive le Vegan! is also stellar. The first one, The Everyday Vegan, isn't as exciting.
Also: the white bean hummus with fresh thyme and basil is awesome!
I just tried a few new things over the weekend:
Chewy oatmeal raisin cookies: just okay. I have other recipes that do this classic recipe a lot better.
Curried carrot dip: just fine but not...
I just made the apple crumb cake muffins - I recommend highly.
Ditto. Nut allergies confuse me. Peanuts are actually legumes but they're likewise generally associated with proper nut allergies, as we all know.
I sometimes make pesto with either sunflower...
Wow, this is very inspiring! I'm going to try the cauliflower pot pie asap!
Ooooh, I've been meaning to try those!
The thing is, even if veganism were bad for the environment it doesn't follow that an omni diet would be good for the environment. It wouldn't. So, if there were no way to avoid serious environmental...
I would definitely still be vegan if it were bad for the environment. I'm glad that it's better than eating meat for the environment, but the environment had nothing to do with why I went vegan.
I made the Pasta Della California tonight - it was really, really tasty and super fast and easy to make. It's definitely going to become a staple. :satisfied:
Last count, there were 54 veg restaurants in Toronto. I'm not sure how easy it would be to get a job though.
Check out the Toronto Vegetarian Directory for a list!...
The Toronto Vegetarian Association puts on an annual vegetarian food fair - and it's this coming weekend! Check www.veg.ca for details. Admission is free!
I would think there would be an on-campus health centre where you could see a doctor.
I found that for frying them, I had to work really hard to make them as thin as possible so they would cook in the middle. That meant I ended up making more patties than the recipe calls for but I...
8 copies?!!? The Calgary Veg Society must have donated those or something. In any case, "WOOT!" for you.:D
Honeybees transported just like cows and chickens and pigs:

Dreena Burton's Vive le Vegan is still my most favourite and well-used cookbook.
On my way home from work today, I had to cycle through the scene of a bike-car accident. The bike was mashed and there was an ambulance taking the cyclist away. :( There have been so many accidents...
I've been cycling to work almost every day and I'm loving it. I find I have way more physical and mental energy when I cycle instead of take public transit. A couple of cyclists have been killed here...
If you're strange then so am I!
I've had a lot of luck using silken tofu in sauces but have never tried it in something that was supposed to remain solid. Ah well. I'll just avoid that recipe and others like it from now on. Le sigh.
That's too bad - I made that gnocchi too and it was a complete success, absolutely perfect and delicious.
I'm going to check out other matzoh ball soup recipes and see if I can come up with a...
Haha, no, not at all.:lol:
The recipe didn't call for powdered egg replacer, no. It was just matzoh meal, salt, pepper, silken tofu, oil, shredded carrot and soup stock. Then I mashed it all together and stuck it in the fridge...
I made the Matzoh Ball Soup from Vegan with a Vengeance tonight...well, I tried to make it. Now I'm waiting for a pizza to be delivered.
The matzoh balls turned to complete mush while cooking;...
Hello all
My hubby recently came home with some garlic flowers in oil, which is something I've never heard of. I don't recall any recipec that call for garlic flowers so I'm not sure what to do...
Make the chocolate pumpkin pie as soon as you get it!
Congratulations! Make the chickpea cutlets with mustard sauce!!!!
Eggs = your daily serving of delicious menstrual product!
I've never enjoyed mole, sadly - and the recipe in Isa's book didn't manage to convince me. :(
I recently tried the Sweet Basil Pesto Tapenade (or something to that effect). I thought it was okay but I don't have much of a sweet tooth.
Haha, perfect.
The soy yoghurt I had in London (bought it at Tesco) was really, really good. I wish I could just like that in Canada. :(
