    What are your thoughts on impossible/beyond meat burgers?

    I was pleasantly surprised to find a Beyond burger yesterday in an unexpected place. We went to a minor league baseball game because our kids’ high school band was playing the national anthem. I ate beforehand, assuming I wouldn’t find much to eat at the game. Well, they actually had Beyond...

    What are you reading now?

    I’m reading “The River” by Peter Heller. I highly recommend it! I almost finished it last night before I fell asleep, and had dreams about it all night. I can’t wait to finish it today.

    Breakfast?

    I’ve been on an overnight oats kick. Oats, toasted sliced almonds, chia, coconut, a dollop of soy yogurt and oat milk.

    Runner's World Publishes An Obviously Biased Article

    Back in my running days I subscribed to Runner’s World- but quickly realized that this caliber of writing was par for the course. So I did buy some Just Eggs earlier this week. I thought they were a decent substitute for scrambled eggs- had a good texture but not a lot of flavor. I cook with...

    Vegan ice-cream

    And then there’s Italian Ice, or water ice as we call it in the Philadelphia area. I don’t think it’s churned like Sorbet.

    Tim Horton’s-Expands Vegan Options/Just Eggs

    My grocery store just recently added Just Eggs. I haven’t tried it yet since I’m perfectly happy with tofu scramble. But maybe I’ll pick some up while I’m at the store today just to try it out.

    Plant-based milks on the rise:

    It seems like every time I buy milk there’s a new option on the shelves. I’ve found oat milk to be my favorite. I’d like to start making my own, but I feel torn about it, because then I would not be buying a product that I would like to see more of in stores.

    Awesome time with the horses yesterday

    I don’t have horses, or any experience with them, but feel the same way when I take my dog out on the trails. He absolutely loves it. He for sure knows the words “hike,” “run,” and “bike ride.” He also can recognize when we’re dressed to hike, run or ride. This summer has been too hot for him...

    delicious roasted potatoe

    How long do you put them in the instant pot first? And do you just use the normal “pressure cook” setting? I’ve been trying to figure out how to roast potatoes without oil, but they just get so dried out in the oven.

    Tim Horton’s-Expands Vegan Options/Just Eggs

    The closest Tim Hortons to me is about 4 hours away...but I’m counting on Dunkin’ to make this move soon, now that they’ve announced a meat-free sausage.

    Chipotle Brands Plant-Based Meat Too Processed - Beyond Meat Responds

    Agree! Their sofritas are awesome. I’ve been trying to replicate the recipe at home, but haven’t mastered it yet. I’m making burritos for dinner tonight and am giving homemade sofritas another go- in the instant pot this time.

    Fish replacement foods are next...

    Good article. I haven’t tried any store bought fish substitutes yet, but have recently found that a combination of seaweed flakes and old bay sprinkled on tofu can replace scallops or shrimp, especially in a pasta dish.

    Men's Health Magazine Redeemed. HM says tofu is good for you.

    Great article. I’ve never heard of Yuba, but definitely want to try to find some. I checked out the Hodo website to see where it’s available, but doesn’t look like they carry it anywhere near where I live. Will have to look for it when I’m closer to urban areas!

    Persistent Health Issues after Diet Change

    Did you happen to get tested for Lyme disease or other tick-borne illnesses? I see you’re in Georgia, where it’s not so common as up here in the north, but I know it is spreading throughout the east coast. Drs around here are pretty quick to test for it, but maybe not where you are. Both my...

    Looking for the best vegan mac and cheese

    Mac and cheese is definitely one of my comfort foods- at least real oven-baked Mac and cheese, not the instant stuff in a box. There’s a vegan restaurant near me that makes an amazing Mac and cheese stuffed in a pita with some pesto. I haven’t tried duplicating it myself at home, yet, but I’m...

    B12 and thyroid issues

    I had my bi-yearly thyroid check up yesterday and was telling my dr that despite my bloodwork saying otherwise, I still thought my thyroid was off. After some discussion we decided that I would supplement with Methylcobalamin b12 rather than cynocobalamin. She mentioned that I should stop the...
