Today, I'm definitely going fancy for Vegan Mofo! My theme is "inexpensive high tea snacks". I love tea of any kind and any time of day, but there's something wonderful about the ritual of an afternoon tea break. I usually drink tea at work when the people traffic slows a bit to recharge after the… Continue reading Vegan High Tea

Muesli Berry Parfaits
Today is a pantry meal! I almost always have some form of oats in my pantry for baking or a quick last-minute breakfast/lunch. Oatmeal for lunch is the best option when you're running late in the morning. I recently came back from Sweden and I picked up some food finds there as souvenirs. I… Continue reading Muesli Berry Parfaits
No Salt Added Sushi Burritos
For today's low/no salt prompt, I made something that's often needlessly packed with sodium: sushi. I also made it as something that's also high in added sodium: burritos. Bring it. So, I love sushi and I love to get it out places since I almost always can guarantee its vegan status. The ingredients are often… Continue reading No Salt Added Sushi Burritos
Banana Bread Protein Balls
For the Vegan MoFo prompt today, I made a simple and nourishing recipe that I use quite often at home. I find that protein is something I don't eat much of, especially with my regular meals. I'm a bit of a carboholic and my intake is somewhere around 170 grams a day (sometimes more!). These… Continue reading Banana Bread Protein Balls
Nut-Free Queso
Today's prompt for Vegan MoFo is "creamy without nuts". All vegans who cook can appreciate the challenge with this. Nuts are what gives vegan cheese life. Within recent history, however, some wonderful vegan cheese products have been born without containing nuts whatsoever. These options give the rather large population of people with nut allergies… Continue reading Nut-Free Queso
Turmeric Rice Bowl
Today's prompt for VeganMofo is all about color. I chose a color that I normally don't like in any other context except when it comes to foods. Some of my favorite foods happen to be yellow. However, I don't like to wear yellow clothing or use yellow in my decorating. I have nothing against the… Continue reading Turmeric Rice Bowl
Tempeh Beet Burgers
For the "...but protein" prompt today, I made some burgers. There's nothing quite as anti-vegan as ground up meat so I've made my beloved tempeh burger with some beet in it to make it look a little more "convincing" to someone who might be skeptical of vegan burgers. I've had the pleasure of trying the… Continue reading Tempeh Beet Burgers
